Photos: Tyler Hoechlin Rips Open His Shirt As Superman

Better late than never, right?

For whatever reason, when photos of Tyler Hoechlin doing a running shirt-rip as Superman hit the Internet, we didn’t catch them to share. Hoechlin appears in the first episode of Supergirl Season 2 as the Man of Steel himself — no longer hiding in the shadows.

Because these photos have been out for a while, we can’t seem to figure out the original source. As we have good relationships with the folks taking pictures up in Vancouver and respect their intellectual property and all that, if anyone can find the source, let us know in the comments and we’ll credit appropriately. Likewise, if you’d like to see a cool photo of Melissa Benoist and Tyler Hoechlin together as Supergirl and Superman together, where we also do not know where it originated… you can find it at our Twitter feed. (You’re following already right?)

  • Am I the only one who can hear the Williams music (my pick: "The Big Rescue" from STM) while browsing through these pics?

    Bring on the Man of Steel, and bring on October 10!

  • By the way, and I think I tried to post this earlier on my phone without much luck, there were a bunch of shirt-rip pics posted on YVRShoots and on CanadaGraphs. The latter site also posted photos where the Twitter pic of the Super-Cousins came from.
