Olympic pommel horse champion Stephen Nederoscik quickly became beloved on social media during the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, with many drawing comparisons between him removing his eyeglasses before his performance, and DC's Clark Kent transforming into Superman. The next onscreen Superman , David Corenswet , is even joining in on the comparisons. During a recent episode of Gold Meets Golden , Corenswet offered his congratulations to Nederoscik for his Olympic performance, while joking that they are both fighting for "truth, justice," and more . Corenswet will make his onscreen debut as the Man of Steel in James Gunn's Superman movie, which is scheduled to debut in the summer of 2025.
"Good afternoon, this is a special message for Stephen Nederoscik," Corenswet says in his video message. "From one Clark Kent to another, thanks for bringing home a medal for the United States, and for continuing to fight for truth, justice, and the core strength of fifty normal men. Thanks for being exceptional, man. Well done."

"We are telling a big, huge, central story that is like Marvel, except for, I think that we're a lot more planned out than Marvel from the beginning because we've gotten a group of writers together to work that story out completely.
