The DC Universe is set to soar to new heights with “Superman: Legacy,” the most anticipated superhero project of 2025. Directed by James Gunn, this film promises to reintroduce the Man of Steel to a new generation while setting the stage for an expansive DCU. Just a few days ago, the first teaser for “Superman: Legacy” dropped, offering fans a tantalizing glimpse of the characters and storylines to come. Alongside official announcements, the teaser has confirmed an impressive roster of heroes and supporting characters, signaling an ambitious vision for the DCU’s future.
Clark Kent / Superman (David Corenswet)
The iconic Kryptonian survivor and young journalist is portrayed as the embodiment of truth, justice, and kindness in a cynical world. Corenswet’s Superman is set to be more established than Tom Welling’s version in “Smallville,” yet younger than Henry Cavill’s portrayal in the DCEU.
Michael Holt / Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi)
A brilliant inventor and superhero who employs high-tech gadgets to fight crime.
Rex Mason / Metamorpho (Anthony Carrigan)
An archaeologist turned superhero who can transmute elements within his body into various forms. Carrigan’s portrayal draws inspiration from his own life, adding depth to Metamorpho’s struggles with his abilities.
Guy Gardner / Green Lantern (Nathan Fillion)
The brash and abrasive Green Lantern, complete with his iconic bowl cut hairstyle, steps in as the galactic peacekeeper.
Kendra Saunders / Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced)
A fierce superhero wielding wings and melee weapons. Merced’s petite stature sets her apart from other DCU heroes, and her prior role as Anya Corazon in “Madame Web” has prepped her for the action.
Angela Spica / The Engineer (María Gabriela de Faría)
A member of the Authority whose nanotechnology-enhanced body grants her extraordinary abilities.
Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo)
The leader of A.R.G.U.S., reprising his role from the animated series “Creature Commandos.”
Kara Zor-El / Supergirl (Milly Alcock)
Superman’s cousin makes her live-action debut, portrayed by “House of the Dragon” star Milly Alcock. Kara will feature prominently before leading her own film, “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.”
Krypto the Super Dog
The beloved super-pet from the 1950s comic era makes his live-action debut, playing a significant role in keeping watch over Superman’s home.
Beyond the Confirmed Cast
While these characters have been officially confirmed or teased in the first trailer, fans are buzzing with speculation about additional cameos. With “The Authority” being a pivotal part of the DCU’s future, more members of this team could make an appearance. Additionally, with “The Brave and the Bold” on the horizon, there’s a strong possibility of seeing Batman and Robin. Rumors also hint at Jason Momoa reprising his role as Lobo, adding further excitement to the film’s potential surprises. “Superman: Legacy” is shaping up to be a monumental chapter in the DC Universe, blending iconic heroes, fresh faces, and interwoven narratives that promise to captivate fans worldwide.
