DC\u2019s upcoming animated series Mister Miracle will star Josh Hutcherson (The Hunger Games, Five Nights at Freddy\u2019s) as Scott Free and Mackenzie Davis (Speak No Evil, Terminator: Dark Fate) as Big Barda. The news comes via DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran himself, speaking with IGN in an interview published earlier today.<\/u> <\/p>\n
Safran also noted showrunner Tom King has written all eight episodes of the series himself. King, a prolific DC author, created the 12-issue, Eisner Award-winning 2017 Mister Miracle series alongside artist Mitch Gerads. That comic forms the basis for this upcoming animated series.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think that Tom King really learned a lot in his season of co-creating and executive producing Lanterns and he adapted his book Mister Miracle fully on his own, wrote all eight episodes and I think it\u2019s just dynamite,\u201d said Safran. \u201cJosh Hutcherson as Scott Free and Mackenzie Davis as Big Barda. And I just think it\u2019s a book that I\u2019ve always loved and I remember Tom telling us early on that, every convention he goes to, at least a couple people come up to him and say this book saved my life and I love that we got to tell that story over eight episodes.\u201d<\/p>\n
