Eager to discover who makes special appearances in James Gunn’s revamped Superman movie? The film showcases a mix of returning DC characters, unexpected voice roles, and clues to future films that collectively broaden the new DC Universe. Familiar figures, obscure comic book references, and hints towards upcoming projects contribute to these cameos, helping establish the mood for what’s to come.
Here’s a breakdown of every major Superman cameo revealed so far.
List of key cameos in James Gunn’s Superman
Bradley Cooper as Jor-El
Bradley Cooper takes on the role of Jor-El, Superman’s Kryptonian father, in a 3D holographic recording. Director James Gunn stated: “I simply asked, ‘Would you do me a favor? Come to England, we’ll film you in a 3D setting, create a hologram of you, and you can play Jor-El.’ To which he replied, ‘Sure.'” (As reported by ComicBook)
Angela Sarafyan as Lara Lor-Van
In this scene, Angela Sarafyan plays Lara Lor-Van, Superman’s biological mom, together with Cooper. Later, as Superman recuperates within the Fortress of Solitude, their recorded message is replayed.
Milly Alcock as Supergirl
Milly Alcock portrays Kara Zor-El/Supergirl in the movie. She makes her appearance towards the end, under the influence of alcohol on a planet with a red sun, and she insists on getting her pet dog, Krypto back. Before departing, she calls Superman a derogatory term before exiting with Krypto.
John Cena as Peacemaker
In simpler terms, John Cena temporarily appears on a news program under the alias Christopher Smith/Peacemaker. During his brief stint, he shares thoughts about Superman in response to Lex Luthor’s public propaganda efforts. This guest appearance does not link up directly with Peacemaker Season 2.
María Gabriela de Faría as The Engineer
In the upcoming series, María Gabriela de Faría takes on the role of Angela Spica / The Engineer, a character who’s equipped with advanced nanotechnology within her body, making her an associate of Luthor. It’s anticipated that she will reappear in The Authority.
Sean Gunn as Maxwell Lord
As I enthusiastically back this fascinating character, I’d like to shed light on Maxwell Lord, brilliantly portrayed by Sean Gunn. He’s the tech tycoon leading LordTech, a company that generously supports our very own Justice Gang.
Will Reeve as News Reporter
Will Reeve, son of Christopher Reeve, makes a cameo as a news reporter.
Fortress of Solitude Robots
In a simpler and more conversational manner, here’s how you could rephrase that: Grace Chan, Michael Rooker, Pom Klementieff, Alan Tudyk, and Jennifer Holland lend their voices to three Superman robots named “Twelve,” “Four,” and “Five.” These mechanical aides help Superman at the Fortress.
Jolene as Krypto
In the role of Krypto the canine character, Jolene, a skilled performer, was digitally rendered based on director James Gunn’s own pet dog, Ozu. Gunn affectionately referred to Krypto as “a not-so-perfect perfect pooch.
