The new Superman is a huge Eagles fan

David Corenswet, a proud Philly native and huge Eagles fan, is set to play Superman in James Gunn’s highly anticipated film. While Corenswet’s superhuman role is making headlines worldwide, it’s his Philly roots and love for the Eagles that truly make him one of us.

Born and raised in the City of Brotherly Love, Corenswet’s journey to Hollywood greatness started right here. After attending the Shipley School and the University of Pennsylvania, he polished his craft at Juilliard.

New Superman Trailer Drops, Sends Fans Into a Frenzy

Philadelphia isn’t just home to passionate sports fans — it’s a breeding ground for die-hard Eagles supporters who embody the team’s grit, loyalty, and fight. From Hollywood A-listers to local legends, Eagles fans share an unshakable bond that sets us apart.

Take Bradley Cooper, for example. The “Silver Linings Playbook” star didn’t just play an Eagles fan on screen — he’s been seen cheering them on in person, including during their iconic Super Bowl LII win. Then there’s Kevin Hart, whose love for the Birds is as bold as his comedy. And let’s not forget Questlove, whose rhythm on the drums matches the energy of the Linc on game day. These celebrities aren’t just fans — they’re family.

Being an Eagles fan is more than a pastime; it’s a lifestyle. This isn’t just a fan base — it’s a tribe. Whether you’re a celebrity in the spotlight or a lifelong season ticket holder, there’s a level of passion and camaraderie that binds us together. We celebrate the highs, endure the lows, and never back down from defending our team — or each other.

Eagles fans are known for our loyalty, intensity, and unapologetic pride. It’s why The Linc remains one of the toughest stadiums for opponents.

And who knows? Maybe we’ll see him rocking midnight green at the Linc someday soon. Or maybe he’ll convince director James Gunn to let him wear an Eagles jersey in the movie. Only time will tell.
