Man of Tomorrow appears to be a big step forward for the DC Universe on screen. The film will introduce Brainiac for the first time in Superman’s theatrical career, and there’s a lot of speculation it will also feature\u00a0Wonder Woman’s live-action debut, leading up\u00a0to her upcoming movie. Now, the Superman follow-up is rumored to feature another intriguing-sounding character.<\/p>\n
In an X Q&A,\u00a0Apocalyptic Horseman<\/a> claimed that a mysterious female hero rumored to be in Man of Tomorrow\u2014believed to be Wonder Woman<\/a>\u2014would be cast in the next month.\u00a0Going from that, the scooper went on to claim\u00a0that a “big” male character is currently being cast for the movie. Though he is unsure about\u00a0whether or not said new player is a hero, he\u00a0will reportedly show up in other DCU projects down the line:\u00a0<\/p>\n “There’s a big male supporting character too. Not sure if it’s a hero, but it’s someone who’ll reappear in future projects. Wish I had more details.”<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a big male supporting character too. Not sure if it\u2019s a hero but it\u2019s someone who\u2019ll reappear in future projects. Wish I had more details<\/p>\n
It’s worth mentioning that in November, scooper Daniel Richtman claimed<\/a> that Man of Tommorrow was looking for a “major” male character:\u00a0“There is also a major new male character they are casting for Man of Tomorrow.”\u00a0Some theorized he was meant to be Steve Trevor, but DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn quickly debunked that<\/a> on social media. It’s unclear whether the character mentioned by Horseman and Richtman is the same, but it seems to be the case.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n The fact that the character is described as “big,” and that he is meant to show up in other projects, points to him being an important presence in the franchise. Though\u00a0that’s, admittedly, little information to go on, the description\u2014if accurate\u2014could fit Batman. While his starring vehicle, The Brave and the Bold, has faced a slow development process, things seem to be picking up for it in a significant way.\u00a0<\/p>\n
