God, I hope this fails spectacularly and drives DC into bankruptcy.

Earlier this week, the Man of Steel soared back onto television on Superman & Lois — the first "tights and flights" live-action Superman series since Lois & Clark hit the airwaves in 1993. Now, Warner Bros. is charting the character's flight path back to movie theaters. In news that sped around the internet faster than a speeding bullet, acclaimed author and noted comic book fan Ta-Nehisi Coates has been hired to pen the screenplay for an all-new Superman feature produced by J.J. Abrams, that may introduce the first big-screen Black Superman. “To be invited into the DC Extended Universe by Warner Bros., DC Films and Bad Robot is an honor,” Coates remarked in an exclusive statement provided to the website Shadow and Act. “I look forward to meaningfully adding to the legacy of America's most iconic mythic hero."
“There is a new, powerful and moving Superman story yet to be told," Abrams said in a separate statement. "We couldn’t be more thrilled to be working with the brilliant Mr. Coates to help bring that story to the big screen, and we’re beyond thankful to the team at Warner Bros. for the opportunity." In addition to being Coates's first superhero screenplay, this is also the first time he's written a DC character. He previously made his comic book debut at Marvel, spearheading a hugely successful relaunch of Black Panther in 2016, followed by a run on Captain America from 2018 to 2020.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Coates's screenplay will be centered around a Black Superman — an idea previously explored by Black Panther star Michael B. Jordan in 2019, at the same time that Cavill's future was in doubt. There's comic book precedent for that: In 2009, writer Grant Morrison introduced Calvin Ellis, aka Kalel, in the pages of Final Crisis. Modeled after Barack Obama, Calvin became the U.S. president on Earth-23, and continued to protect and serve the public as Superman as well. (DC Comics has revealed that the popular character will be part of its Infinite Frontier event, which launches in March.)
