Rachel Brosnahan, who is one of the frontrunners for Lois Lane in James Gunn's DC Universe, breaks silence on the new Superman: Legacy casting reports
Following reports about being one of the frontrunners for Lois Lane in Superman: Legacy, Rachel Brosnahan opens up on the new casting reports for the iconic DC Comics journalist. As James Gunn is set to direct Superman: Legacy, the DC Studios filmmaker is currently in the process of casting several key roles for the upcoming reboot. Outside of the Man of Steel, the Superman reimagination is also looking to cast Lois, Lex Luthor, and Jimmy Olsen.
Over the weekend, several frontrunners emerged for Superman: Legacy, including Lois and Clark, with Brosnahan as one of the candidates for the female lead. In an interview with The View, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star was asked about the reports about her supposedly being up for Lois in Superman: Legacy. While Brosnahan didn't flat-out deny the reports, she stressed that people should take what they read online with "a grain of salt.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT I mean, look, take everything you read on the internet with a grain of salt is my first piece of advice. Look, it would be extraordinary; I grew up watching Lois Lane, this incredibly talented journalist, [who is] far from a damsel in distress and I would jump at the chance if it arose.
However, if these are the type of actresses they are looking for when it comes to casting Lois in Superman: Legacy, it reveals a number of things. For starters, they are definitely looking to find talent who are already established, likely with a lot of critical work in their acting credits. While Lois is traditionally a few years older than Superman in some live-action versions, it appears the DC Universe reboot may have the iconic duo around the same age in this iteration.
Since Superman: Legacy isn't expected to start filming until January 2024, Gunn and his team have plenty of time to go through auditions as these are some major roles they have to nail for the DC Universe. It wouldn't be shocking if the first star that gets cast and announced sometime soon is the Man of Steel himself, perhaps a moment Gunn is saving until this year's San Diego Comic-Con.
