It’s also been announced that Superboy, Connor Kent, will be voiced by Darren Criss in the series. This is a pretty cool get for My Adventures with Superman as Criss has experience with bringing a Superman to life in the past with some of the more recent DC Animated Universe films like Superman: Man of Tomorrow and Justice League: Warworld. But it also showcases the strength of the voice cast stacked with all kinds of talent like The Boys‘ Jack Quaid, who voices Clark Kent himself.

What’s New for My Adventures with Superman Season 3?

Speaking to ComicBook ahead of The Boys‘ final season, Quaid teased a bit about the work on My Adventures with Superman Season 3, “I don’t know the exact date for when it comes back,” Quaid stated. “I know that it is coming along. I’ve gone back and done more recording and more ADR. It is on the way, I promise you. Guys! It’s on the way, and it’s happening. I’m really excited for this season too. I think it’s delightful. What I love about being in The Boys and this show is that it’s both sides of the superhero coin. The Boys is like the gritty, dark, super-violent side, and then Superman, he just wants to save a puppy.”

My Adventures with Superman‘s producers have teased major villains like Lex Luthor becoming more like their comic counterparts compared to before, and even more major characters coming such as Jessica Cruz’s Green Lantern, who is currently set in the timeline with her own series, My Adventures with Green Lantern.
