(The Hollywood Reporter) – James Gunn has found the final piece of his Man of Tomorrow casting puzzle.
After several rounds of screen tests, Adria Arjona has been chosen for the mystery role in DC Studios’ sequel to Superman. It was previously reported that the character was comic antiheroine Maxima, but it’s unknown if that is correct.
DC Studios had no comment.
Earlier in April, a quartet of finalists screen tested in Atlanta, including Eva De Dominici, Sydney Chandler and Grace Van Patten.
David Corenswet returns as Superman, with Nicholas Hoult playing Lex Luthor. The enemies team up to take on the threat of Brainiac (Lars Eidinger), with a slew of Superman stars returning, such as Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane), Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen), Sara Sampaio (Eve Teschmacher), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner) and Edi Gathegi (Mister Terrific). Lanterns star Aaron Pierre will also be on the call sheet, reprising his role as the Green Lantern John Stewart.
