James Gunn’s Superman is one of the most highly anticipated projects set to be released soon. And why wouldn’t it be? It is the first official DC Universe film that not only focuses on the Man of Steel but also introduces a variety of other characters from the pages of Detective Comics, one of whom happens to be Metamorpho.
This iconic and familiar character from the comics has always intrigued DC fans. Now, with his introduction into the universe being built by the Guardians of the Galaxy director, it is incredibly exciting to imagine how this character will be brought to life on the big screen.
While many assumed Metamorpho might be a heavy CGI character, the CEO of DCU, James Gunn—who co-chairs the new franchise with Peter Safran—offered a fresh perspective to eager fans.
In a post on X (formerly known as Twitter), the acclaimed director responded to a fan who asked if Metamorpho would be a CGI character or if audiences would see a more practical take on him.
James Gunn replied, confirming that Metamorpho would feature a “practical” costume in the movie.
For those unfamiliar, Metamorpho will be played by Anthony Carrigan, whose previous credits include another well-regarded DC project, Gotham. In that series, Carrigan portrayed the character Victor Zsasz.
Meanwhile, the first DCU film, Superman: Legacy, will star David Corenswet as the new Superman, with Rachel Brosnahan taking on the role of Lois Lane.
The versatile actor from Mad Max: Fury Road, Nicholas Hoult, will be seen playing the role of Lex Luthor, Superman’s arch-nemesis, while Isabela Merced will take to the skies as the powerful Hawkgirl.
Other cast members include Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, as well as Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher, with Wendell Pierce portraying the Daily Planet editor, Perry White.
Mikaela Hoover and Skyler Gisondo will also appear in the film, playing Cat Grant and Jimmy Olsen, respectively.
As for the character of Rex Mason, aka Metamorpho, he was mutated and gained the ability to manipulate his body with elastic and transmutative powers. He has the capability to combine solid, liquid, and gas forms to create complex compounds or reshape them into new forms.

Diwali 2024 couldn’t have been bigger for Bollywood fans, as Ajay Devgn’s Singham Again and Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 have debuted in the theaters. While the internet has already been buzzing with the frenzy around both films, fans were in for a surprise after Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan surprisingly appeared in Anees Bazmee’s horror-comedy with a twist.
Kartik Aaryan reprised his role as Rooh Baba in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 alongside Vidya Balan, Triptii Dimri, and Madhuri Dixit. Though the third installment of the horror-comedy had already raised fans’ excitement, little did they expect Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan cameo in the film.
Actually, King Khan doesn’t make an appearance himself in the film, but a parody has been created on his beloved vigilante character of Jawan. Extremely surprised by the development, several fans shared screenshots and videos of the twisted cameo in the film.
A user wrote, “Imagine you are soo Big that even Reference of your Parody making more Buzz than the 10 Cameos of x,y and z actors. This is the Stardom of #ShahRukhKhan Masterstroke by #BhoolBhulaiyaa3 Makers” while another user mentioned, “Vikram Rathore AKA SHAH RUKH KHAN ICONIC Jawan Character is now the TALK OF THE NATION in #BhoolBhulaiyaa3 #SRKDay #SRK59 #SRKFcPune #ShahRukhKhan”
In the scene, we can see Kartik’s Rooh Baba preparing himself to take heads on with a lookalike of SRK’s bandaged and revenge thirst anti-hero, Jawan. The moment was filled with slow-motion struts and SRK’s signature one-liner but with a comedic twist. We also see Sanjay Mishra and Ashwini Kalsekar watching the entire moment with utmost curiosity.
The creative twist is being hailed by the audiences as it leaves them cracking up and several cheers the loudest watching it on the big screens.
Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is the third installment in the popular horror comedy franchise. Directed by Anees Bazmee, the movie features Kartik Aaryan, Triptii Dimri, Madhuri Dixit, Rajpal Yadav, Vijay Raaz, and more in the important roles.
The first part of Bhool Bhulaiyaa, led by Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan, was released in 2007, and the second part released in 2022 had Tabu and Kiara Advani in the lead roles.
