Superman: Legacy Fan Art Shows Euphoria’s Jacob Elordi as the Man of Steel
James Gunn is hard at work penning the script for his upcoming Superman: Legacy movie and he still hasn't decided if he's going to sit in the directors chair or not. There hasn't been any rumors of who will play the next Man of Steel, but fans seem to have an idea of who they want in the role. One fan seems to think Euphoria's Jacob Elordi is the guy for the job. An artist on Instagram that goes by the handle of @Bobby_Art created a new design that shows Elordi as the Man of Steel. In the fan art, the Euphoria star gets the classic Superman suit that's fitting for the next Kal-El. While Gunn probably hasn't started casting the role yet, I'm sure he has an idea of who will play his Superman.

Gunn and Safran began their jobs as Co-CEO's of DC Studios last year and it's safe to say that the future of DC is looking bright. When the duo was announced by the new Warner Bros. Discovery boss, they released a statement on their excitement for the job.
"We're honored to be the stewards of these DC characters we've loved since we were children," Gunn and Safran added in a joint statement. "We look forward to collaborating with the most talented writers, directors, and actors in the world to create an integrated, multilayered universe that still allows for the individual expression of the artists involved. Our commitment to Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Harley Quinn, and the rest of the DC stable of characters is only equaled by our commitment to the wonder of human possibility these characters represent. We're excited to invigorate the theatrical experience around the world as we tell some of the biggest, most beautiful, and grandest stories ever told."
The next DC Studios movie to hit theaters will be Shazam! Fury of the Gods. Warner Bros. Pictures and New Line describe the film as follows: "Bestowed with the powers of the gods, Billy Batson and his fellow foster kids are still learning how to juggle teenage life with having adult Super Hero alter-egos. But when the Daughters of Atlas, a vengeful trio of ancient gods, arrive on Earth in search of the magic stolen from them long ago, Billy—aka Shazam—and his family are thrust into a battle for their superpowers, their lives, and the fate of their world.
The film is being directed by David F. Sandberg (Shazam!, Annabelle: Creation) and produced by Peter Safran. Fury of the Gods was written by Henry Gayden and Chris Morgan. Shazam! Fury of the Gods hits theater on March 17th!
