Barry” star Anthony Carrigan is having a big day — just hours after he earned his third Emmy nomination for playing NoHo Hank, it was revealed that he’ll next play a superhero in DC’s “Superman: Legacy.” Carrigan has been cast as the classic DC character Metamorpho, whose alter ego is the archeologist Rex Mason, joining an ensemble led by David Corenswet as the Man of Steel and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. “It’ll certainly be a bit of a jump,” Carrigan told Variety of morphing characters. “I’m excited just to shake things up. Noho Hank is such a specific character, and I’m excited to play someone completely different and surprise people with just being unrecognizable.”

“Superman: Legacy” is shaping up, and director James Gunn is feeling it.

Warner Bros has begun rounding out the cast for DC franchise resetter Superman: Legacy, studio chief Peter Safran has announced in a new piece with Vanity Fair, with Nathan Fillion (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3), Isabela Merced (Madame Web) and Edi Gathegi (The Harder They Fall) coming aboard.

not Henry Cavill, David Corenswet or even Tyler Hoechlin. The new animated Adult Swim / Max series, “My Adventures With Superman,” premiering July 6 and 7 (on Adult Swim and Max, respectively) is timely in the sense that Clark Kent has dominated recent headlines — be the late Christopher Reeve’s bizarre posthumous AI “cameo” in “The Flash” that outraged fans or the news that Corenswet will succeed Cavill in the big-screen DC movies,with “Mrs. Maisel” star Rachel Bosnahan replacing Amy Adams as Lois Lane. For better or worse, “My Adventures With Superman” is landing at peak “Superman” saturation.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director David Corenswet is officially the new Superman, which is a dream come true for the actor. Literally. Back in 2019, Corenswet was promoting his supporting role in Ryan Murphy’s Netflix limited series “Hollywood” when he told Entertainment Weekly that his biggest acting goal was “definitely to play Superman.” Here we are four years later and now he’s Superman. The actor also said he was aware of his similar looks to Henry Cavill, who played Superman in three movies directed by Zack Snyder. “It came to my attention before the internet got a hold of me,” Corenswet told EW at the time about comparisons to Cavill. “But my pie-in-the-sky ambition is definitely to play Superman. I would love to see somebody do an upbeat, throwback [take on Superman]. I love the Henry Cavill dark and gritty take, but I would love to see the next one be very bright and optimistic.”

revealed as DC’s new Superman and Lois Lane on Tuesday, it was hard to get revved up about the news.That’s not to diss the casting for 2025’s “Superman: Legacy.” Corenswet, the 29-year-old freshly minted Clark Kent, appropriately looks like a younger version ofhis predecessor Henry Cavill and was charismatic on the Netflix series “Hollywood” and “The Politician.” And 32-year-old Brosnahan, the lovable star of Amazon’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” is ideal as his Daily Planet counterpart.I’m sure they’ll do fine.But the casting change-up didn’t come across as a major victory for Warner Bros.
