Pierson Fodé, 31, might be cast as Superman in the upcoming film, Superman: Legacy.
Although an official Superman hasn’t been named, it seems that writer-director James Gunn has taken a liking to Fodé’s audition tape.
The 31-year-old’s tape featured his family farm in Moses Lake, Washington. As evidenced by his farm montage, Fodé is apparently a farm boy at heart, similar to the comic-book superhero’s background.
The Emmy nominee made his acting debut in 2012 when he played Todd in Nickelodeon’s iCarly. He has also appeared in Naomi and Ely’s No Kiss List and is also known as Brooks in Disney Channel’s Jessie and Ely. Most recently, he shared the screen with Woody Harrelson and Kevin Hart in The Man from Toronto.

Henry Cavill, 40, previously played the role of Superman but announced late last year that he would not return for the part after initially announcing that he would.
Gunn is reportedly looking for a younger man for the new Superman film.
Aside from Fodé, David Coresnwet and Nicholas Hoult are also in the running to become the next Clark Kent. Gunn still has a bit of time to choose his superhero, though, as filming is reported to start in January 2024.
Superman: Legacy’s scheduled release date is July 11, 2025.
