Netizens reaction to Superman’s trailer

In the post, Superman is seen ascending into the sky, and he’s set to go even beyond the clouds. The official description of Steve Beach’s Superman issue shines some light on what we can expect from Superman: Legacy. 

The comment section was flooded and fans couldn’t keep calm. One user wrote, “I knew from the moment I saw #DavidCorneswet he needed to play this role!! literally instantly. This trailer looks phenomenal @jamesgunn”. Another user wrote, “Why is July 6 months away”. “James Gunn, you're making us dream! What a wonderful trailer! Every scene is pure comics! I'm a Superman fan, I've been reading the magazines for years and I loved them. I hope the movie is as good as the trailer. As fans, we already know that you know how to tell good stories. High expectations!”, wrote the third user.

Netizens who were earlier not in support of James Gunn not taking in Superman for Henry Cavill seems to have changed their stance. One user wrote, “Those who miss Henry right now they were once haters of Henry. So It's not matter who play's Superman Just ( look UP & HOPE )”. In one of the post on social media, one user had also mentioned, “I think one of the most dislikabkle about Snyder Superman is his lack of agency. In Man of Steel it never feels like he chooses to be Superman”.
