Who will play Superman in writer-director James Gunn’s Superman Legacy? That’s a big question, and one we still don’t have the answer to. Yet another name has now surfaced.
According to Variety, former Bold and the Beautiful star Pierson Fode is “in the running” for the role. Sources told the site that Fode sent Gunn a tape depicting his own Clark Kent-like small-town origin story from Moses Lake, Washington. Variety said that Gunn liked what he saw.
Fode is no stranger to the superhero world, as he appeared in an episode of Supergirl in 2020. He also appeared in The Man From Toronto with Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson. One of his next projects is Based on a True Story with Kaley Cuoco and Chris Messina.
