A Superman & Lois star has called Tyler Hoechlin the best version of the Man of Steel since Christopher Reeve's portrayal of Superman. One of The CW's biggest Arrowverse shows in the whole line-up is Superman & Lois, which premiered in 2021, following Hoechlin and Bitsie Tulloch's titular characters. Unlike past iterations of the DC icons, the Arrowverse incarnation focuses on Lois and Clark dealing with their jobs while also tackling parenthood. With the Superman mythology being one of the most iconic and beloved DC properties, it didn't take long for the Arrowverse drama to become a fan favorite.
Throughout the decades, many talented actors have brought the Last Son of Krypton to life on the big and small screens. Outside of Reeve, Brandon Routh portrayed Superman in Superman Returns and reprised the role in Arrowverse's Crisis on Infinite Earths. When Warner Bros. rebooted the property, Henry Cavill suited up as the DCEU's Superman in Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Zack Snyder's Justice League. While he didn't suit up until the series finale, Tom Welling's Clark Kent was essentially Superman throughout 10 years on Smallville as he grew into the legend that the world knows and loves. In the 1990s, Dean Cain played the mild-mannered hero throughout four seasons of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman alongside Teri Hatcher as Lois. However, with so many incarnations of the Superman legend, there is an ongoing debate about who is the best iteration.
