Since the casting announcement of the Superman Legacy in 2023, actor David Corenswet has been working out under the covers to build up his muscles. Finally, he shares the results as fans witness his jacked body in the post shared by his workout trainer, Paolo Mascitti.
Paolo Mascitti gives a glimpse of the new Man of Steel’s physique through his Instagram post, captioning, “The Legacy.”
At first glance, fans thought the man was Henry Cavill. But to everyone’s surprise, it was David Corenswet’s first appearance after the trainer took him under his roof to make him hunky for the titular role.
David Corenswet had awaited this moment his entire life. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly in 2019, he mentions, “But my pie-in-the-sky ambition is definitely to play Superman. I would love to see somebody do an upbeat, throwback [take on Superman]. I love the Henry Cavill dark and gritty take, but I would love to see the next one be very bright and optimistic.”
Key Takeaways
- David Corenswet’s workout routine and diet have not been made public.
- The actor is in a strict fight training.
- He is the first Jewish actor to portray Superman.
No one knew that the bright and optimistic one would be the actor himself sweating like hell to live up to the expectations of fans who once commented on David Coresnwet being skinny for Superman.
One of the Reddit users commented, “Corenswet is very thin for the role. His publicist puts him at 175 lbs at 6’4″. Reeve auditioned 10-12 lbs heavier than that…”
Another replies, “Corenswet is considerably more slender than Reeve was. He’s got to pack on about a dozen pounds just to get to the weight Reeve was at his audition…He can still be made to look right, but it’s going to take some serious work from a bunch of people.”
Nevertheless, David Corenswet followed the strict workout even during the 75th Emmy Awards, as per Superman Legacy star Rachel Brosnahan, who offered an update on James Gunn and the Superman actor.

Everyone awaits the final look of David Corenswet in his Superman suit.
Fans speculate Paolo Mascitti put David Corenswet on a strict diet that only includes chicken breast and rice
Fans praise Paolo Mascitti for keeping David Corenswet on a healthy and balanced diet. One user says, “I wish I had a Hollywood trainer so I could bulk safely using PED like him. Regardless, he resembles Henry, and it makes me feel a bit nostalgic. Cannot wait!”
Paolo Mascitti has not revealed the diet or workout plan of any celeb he has trained, including the secret of David Corenswet. Thus, fans have created their conspiracies and stories.
One of the Reddit threads was created entirely for actor David Corenswet, with his evolution discussion as a focus.

A Reddit user quotes, “Bulking like a pro. I wonder how insane his cut is going to look. I will always envy these actors (aside from how restrictive their diet will likely be once he’s not bulking). Would love to get paid to get jacked and eat tons of food. Pass on the massive dehydration for looking super ripped though.”
On the other hand, some claim the bulking comes from “good sauce,” a term usually meaning brown rice. A user comments, “CHICKEN AND RICE DIET,” to which another user replies, “Brown Rice* That’s the only secret sauce, I swear.”
I legit thought that was Henry Cavill for a second!
