The David Corenswet Diet

About the podcast Man things, The star of the new DC Universe participated in a question-and-answer session where he talked about the diet that transformed him into Superman.

“I was racking up 4,500 to 5,000 calories a day. That meant three meals, two 1,200-calorie shakes, and a bedtime snack of somewhere between a half-can and a 32-ounce can of Greek yogurt. It was not fun. I don’t recommend it unless you have a reason to gain weight. 35 pounds in four months or something like that.

On the other hand, Corenswet was also asked what obstacles he faced while filming Superman. Below we share the actor’s response.

“I have this weird neurological apathy where I literally hear the question and I think… I’m just trying to think of literal obstacles, like when I hit a wall at one point. Yeah, I got hit. That was fun. But yeah, there was this glass thing I was supposed to fly through. Oh, I hit a door! “That was a good obstacle.”
