Idk about the casting in this..... Superman looks like he's in his early 20's and Louis looks like she's in her mid 30s. I don't mind either actors individually, but together it just seems like an odd pairing.

I feel like the reverse would be kinda creepy, like if Superman was in his mid 30's trying to pick up a Lois as a fresh out of school intern at the daily planet.

He’s 31, she’s 34 (the actors). I think you might be thrown off by how Hollywood always has extremely young actresses playing older roles while older guys get cast as young characters. They look like they’re similar ages to me.

Eh, I mean I generally think the whole old actor and young actress trope is creepy as well. I just never would have thought the guy playing Superman was in his thirties, he just looks babyfaced to me.

I also was under the impression that this was going to be more of an origins story, with Clark making his way to the big city kinda thing, but that may have been a misconception on my part.

Oh yeah, it’s definitely creepy both ways. Just speculating on why their ages might have looked so off to you. I know media has influenced my perception of what people actually look like at a given age!
