Superman’s love interest Lois Lane, a reporter, is being played by Rachel Brosnahan. Nicholas Hoult is seen as the main villain, Lex Luthor, who shares his agenda to destroy the “most powerful man on earth” and his loved ones.

However, what seems to have captured fans' fancy the most in this trailer is an alien baby in Superman's arms. Superman is shown entangled in what seem to be tentacles, while holding the green baby.

Fans quickly started guessing that it was "Baby Joey". In a comics based on Superman, Baby Joey was the son of Metamorpho, known as Rex Mason, who is born with transmutation abilities. His inclusion hints at Metamorpho’s significant role in Lex Luthor’s designs.
