American actor David Corenswet, who played the titular superhero in the 2025 Superman film, talked about his time in Singapore in a video posted on Instagram on Oct 6.

"First Fl experience in the books, thanks to @visit_singapore," the 32-year-old wrote, tagging Singapore Tourism Board's (STB) @visit_singapore account.

"Tremendous dedication from the crews and the drivers who, I can confirm, operate with zero leg room or cup holders."
