“Superman” star David Corenswet is trolling the man who performs his on-screen nemesis … playfully chiding Lex Luthor actor Nicholas Hoult, who he says stole his type.

David stepped out Wednesday in New York Metropolis carrying an outfit that was awfully much like what we noticed Nicholas carrying final week … black costume footwear, white trousers, white tank prime, sweater tied over one shoulder and underneath the opposite armpit, black sun shades, and a bag in hand.

Distinction is … Nicholas appeared to be taking the look very significantly, and David’s completely trolling Clark Kent’s longtime foe.

David posted his and Nicholas’ images on his social media account and joked … “Dude’s been jacking my type since 1998.”

Nicholas laughed it off and performed up David’s troll job … leaving twin emojis on David’s IG publish and reposting it on his story, including Rosemary Clooney‘s “Sisters” and a few laughing emojis.
