Legacy And How They Could Change The DCU
Like it or not, the cinematic Justice League as we know it is over, and as far as we’re aware, “Superman: Legacy” won’t be introducing a new version, regardless of how many other heroes it’s going to unveil. That’s not a bad thing either, particularly given director James Gunn’s view that “cameo porn” ruins superhero movies. But that begs the question of just how much screen time the other super-powered players confirmed for “Superman: Legacy” will get.
The guest list is currently pretty jam-packed, with the film promising appearances from Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced), Green Lantern Guy Gardner (Nathan Fillion), Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi), and Metamorpho (Anthony Carrigan). All of these crimefighters have, at some point or another, been inducted into the Justice League, with Metamorpho also being part of Mister Terrific’s team, The Terrifics, who were introduced in 2018.
Going for lesser-known heroes and teams isn’t out of the ordinary for Gunn. He’s always looked beyond A-list characters and, in doing so, delivered some of his best work with likes of the “Peacemaker” show and his “Guardians of the Galaxy” films. Seeing an ensemble unknown to casual audiences, working in the same airspace as Superman, might be an interesting way to prove that all roads don’t need to rush to the Hall of Justice, as much as we’d love them to. Let’s see the Man of Steel work solo before he becomes a team player.
