Ghanaians were left surprised on November 9, 2025, when pictures and videos of a tall Caucasian man dressed in a Superman costume making his way into the Manhiya Palace during the 8th Akwasidae Festival celebrations went viral.
Many wondered who this Superman was and why he was at the palace. Hours later, more details emerged.
The Superman cosplayer was identified as Brazilian lawyer, philanthropist, and content creator Leonardo Muylaert, popularly known as “Tall Clark.”
He became an internet sensation after participating in a Superman costume contest, which he won due to his striking resemblance to the iconic superhero.
