Wendell Pierce Cast as Perry White in James Gunn’s ‘Superman’


The actor will lead 'The Daily Planet' as boss to Clark Kent and Lois Lane.

Wendell Pierce, perhaps best known for his work as a detective on HBO’s seminal crime series The Wire, has been cast as the iconic editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet in James Gunn’s. Rounding out Gunn’s cast is Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen), Sara Sampaio (Eve Teschmacher), Edi Gathegi (Mister Terrific), Terence Rosemore (Otis), Anthony Carrigan (Metamorpho), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner) and María Gabriela de Faría (The Engineer). The feature marks the first solo Superman project in more than a decade following Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel, which starred Henry Cavill.
