Superman Sequel Man Of Tomorrow Praised By DCU Star

Jennifer is a TV and Movie News Editor at ScreenRant. She started her journey in entertainment media in 2022 when she first joined Valnet at CBR before coming to ScreenRant.

Jennifer loves TV, especially science fiction. She also loves late-night talk shows, due to her insomnia. Alien: Earth is definitely one of her favorite shows, and she jumps on any chance she gets to write about it. Even on her days off, she will claim an Alien Earth article if one is available. 

Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon are two of her favorite late-night hosts, and Conan O'Brien before he left his show.

Her Alien: Earth coverage for ScreenRant is by far the work that she is most proud of so far.

She was initially a finance and political editor, but her passion for pop culture convinced her to transition into entertainment journalism.

During her off time, she loves to binge-watch cooking shows such as Kitchen Nightmares. Jennifer also loves spending time with her daughter and cherishes every moment of it.

DCU star, Jennifer Holland, has high expectations for the upcoming Superman sequel, Man of Tomorrow.

Written and directed by James Gunn, Man of Tomorrow sees David Corenswet return as Superman and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. The film follows the rivals as they are forced to unite in order to fight Brainiac, who will be played by Lars Eidinger. Milly Alcock's Supergirl is also expected to appear, connecting the characters and storylines of the DC Universe. The movie will also star Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane), Edi Gathegi (Mister Terrific), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner's Green Lantern), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl), and Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen).

Holland, who portrayed Emilia Harcourt in Peacemaker, spoke to GamesRadar+ during a screening of Supergirl, where she revealed that she had seen a decent portion of Man of Tomorrow and was extremely impressed. Although the sequel is not finished filming yet, she said that she had seen enough to be able to say that the film is probably one of Gunn's strongest projects, if not the best.

Holland explained that Man of Tomorrow is more ambitious than Gunn’s previous work for DC. The actor stated that the movie really stepped up in several ways. She added that she is excited to see the final product and for fans of the franchise to experience it on the big screen. Despite her enthusiasm for the upcoming sequel, it still remains to be seen if her Peacemaker character will appear in the movie.

I can tell you that I have seen an enormous, enormous portion of the movie, and I am so excited for Man of Tomorrow. It is different...I don't wanna say this. It might be James's best… my favorite movie of James, and I haven't even seen the whole thing yet. I'm just... I love the movie. I'm really excited about it. It feels like a step up to me in a lot of ways. I'm excited for people to see it, and he's not done filming it yet.

Holland played Emilia in the DCU TV series, Peacemaker. Her iteration character is a black-ops operative who first appeared in the 2021 film, Suicide Squad. The show also stars John Cena (Peacemaker), Danielle Brooks (Leota Adebayo), Freddie Stroma (Adrian Chase), Steve Agee (John Economos), Robert Patrick (Auggie Smith), Frank Grillo (Rick Flag Sr.), and Chukwudi Iwuji (Clemson Murn).

Emilia was created by writer Rob Williams and artist Jim Lee. She is a relatively new character in DC Comics and was first introduced in Suicide Squad (vol. 5) #2 (October 2016). Emilia's father taught her how to use firearms when she was a child, giving her the skills that defined her career. As an adult, she worked A.R.G.U.S. and eventually joined the Suicide Squad, becoming one of Amanda Waller's most trusted agents.

Man of Tomorrow will premiere in theaters on July 9, 2027. All seasons of Peacemaker are available to stream on HBO Max.
