Some of the Daily Planet staff that appears in Superman (2025) stepped out for a fun night of the town.
Superman (2025) movie stars Mikaela Hoover, Skyler Gisondo, and Beck Bennett have shared some photos revealing the three of them having some fun on the town while taking a break from shooting the Superman reboot film.
Hoover (The Suicide Squad), Gisondo (National Lampoon’s Vacation), and Bennett (SNL) attended a wrestling match at Classic City Wrestling 706, which was a first for Hoover:
“My first time at a wrestling event kicked ass!!” the actress wrote on Instagram, “@classiccitywrestling706 I’ve got my singlet ready for next time”.
If nothing else, the photo speaks to the level of camaraderie that’s forming between the cast members of Superman (2025). Hoover, Gisondo, and Bennett are an especially fun trio to see together, as they all play members of the Daily Planet newspaper bullpen: Hoover plays lifestyle/entertainment reporter Cat Grant; Gisondo plays iconic photographer and Superman-pal Jimmy Olson, while Bennett plays Sports section writer/editor Steve Lombard.
Superman (2025) is currently shooting around Atlanta, Georgia. However, James Gunn has made it public knowledge that he’s shooting Superman and Peacemaker Season 2 simultaneously, meaning the cast of Superman may have some free nights to play.
“Yes, we’ll be shooting Superman & #Peacemaker simultaneously; yes, I’ve written all the episodes; but, no, in the interest of getting the show out there I won’t be able to direct them all (only some),” Gunn confirmed on social media.
