Similar to the show Supergirl, Warner Bros. will likely want to establish Supergirl as her own entity in the DCEU before actually pairing her up with Superman. Looking past the racial controversy that could arise, Michael B. Jordan would hypothetically be a great choice to play Superman in the DCEU.
Now, a new report claims that Warner Bros. already has their eyes on a new actor to don the bright red cape: Black Panther actor Michael B. Jordan.
This report from Deadline may be controversial news, but a few years down the road, Michael B. Jordan may prove himself to be the greatest Superman to ever grace the screen.
But they are considering casting Michael B. Jordan some time after that.
