Mr. Terrific TV Show in the Works at DC Studios


The minds at DC Studios are reportedly developing a TV show spin-off based on Superman side character and superhero genius Mr. Terrific.

The latest news on the future DCU installment comes from a The Hollywood Reporter story. Mixed in with all of the dirty details behind the making of last week’s troubled comic book movie, Supergirl, is news that the company has been quietly tinkering away on a new project based on Mr. Terrific.

The character, a crime-fighting genius and technological wizard, made his live-action movie debut in the DCU’s first theatrical release, Superman, where he was played by StartUp star Edi Gathegi. Although the David Corenswet-starring film was directed by DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn, it’s unclear how involved he will be in the Mr. Terrific TV show.

Still, the DCU seems set up for brighter days ahead. Lanterns, a Green Lantern TV show, is currently set to premiere in August. Body horror Batman spin-off Clayface will then head to theaters in October, with Man of Tomorrow, a proper Superman sequel, set to follow next July. How the Mr. Terrific TV show will materialize has yet to be revealed, but Gathegi is at least expected to reprise his role in Man of Tomorrow.
