Perrault and Tony Yacenda, who created the award-winning mockumentary American Vandal, are going into the DC Universe.
The duo will write, executive produce and showrun the Superman TV spinoff and will star Skyler Gisondo, the actor who played Daily Planet photographer and unlikely ladies’ man Jimmy Olsen.
Per THR: “Gisondo and the character became a true breakout from James Gunn’s summer movie, and a show was put into development around him.”
They continued “The concept centers on Olsen, as well as other Daily Planet reporters (minus Lois Lane and Clark Kent), who tackle cases involving super-powered villains.”.
