I think it's a mistake to point to Brosnahan to explain why Mrs. Maisel isn't more popular. It's a Gilmore Girls-style rapid fire dialogue show on a streamer not super well known for its originals, I would point to that and to other things before it goes all the way down to an award-winning actor, which she is, and who is perfect for Lois. Mrs. Maisel isn't everyone's bag, but I don't think this will affect a Superman audience.
yea its one of those shows where you have decide to watch or a friend makes you watch and then you fall in love with the show. But it doesnt grab you on your own I think
I keep getting recommended it but I don't watch Punks or whatever that other show is. I just have no interest in the history of stand up comedy. I had my Joan Rivers phase and its good enough for me.
I think its really important to remember that everyone cast for the live action version of each movie moving forward will also pull double duty as a voice actor for their animated counterpart. So Gunn is taking into consideration that each actor truly embodies the character. The physicality doesn't matter with muscle suits and the amount of time they'll have to prepare for the movie itself especially with the strikes happening. So getting versatile character actors makes way more sense all around.
*Cast There's no word in the English language like 'casted" The past tense and past participle tense of "Cast" is,....well,....."cast" It doesn't conjugate any other way and "casted" is a made-up non-existent word, and basically bad English grammar.
My guess is it'll be the JSA that's been around for years, and the Authority emerges as a rival team with a more extreme approach. They beat the snot out of the JSA, and Superman has to step up to prevent their approach becoming the norm, instead pointing the way at a more noble path and the eventual formation of the Justice League. That's what I am hoping for, anyway.
Or all the hero groups are kind have gone shady over time, too much exposure and control by Waller and co. Resulting in some more than others unable to “see the forest from the trees” in their behavior as “heros”.. and then supes shows up to really show them all that there ls a better way to be a true hero.. cue some rejecting it and many breaking to side with supes then .. well.. big civil war-esque 3rd act fight. Which leads to heros siding with supes to form the JLA a truly independent superhero org..
@@bellcurve0that would be a nice idea for a script but James Gunn isn’t so smart at all!!! I’m guessing he will go ala marvel funny style with a lot of comedy stuff thrown between 🤷🏽♀️🤦♀️💁🏽♀️

I like the idea of the story revolving around a complex foreign conflict, particularly if Lex Luthor is pulling strings as the charismatic master-manipulator he's meant to be.
To be honest - from the plot - it sounds like James Gunn adapted a script that was made for when Dwayne Johnson thought he was gonna have his Black Adam vs Superman movie
It kind of sounds like the first Ironman to me. I like that it engages with superman innate goodness rather than his fists. Sounds like a fight he could actually lose and I think that will stop it from being boring.

I disagree, as long as you make Superman the main focus, having secondary supporting heroes is fine. The flash and black adam failed for alot of reasons, mainly weren't popular enough while superman is.
This movie feels like it's a movie guest starring Superman vs a Superman movie. dc needs to actually build a world and a villain who is pulling all the strings. If this movie teases that brainaic is coming or is that big villain, it make it good. This is too many people for new folks who need to learn about the characters. since i'm a comic nerd I'll watch but I don't feel it's hard to make a good superman movie.hopoing to be surprised and shocked in all the ways like I was with the batman.
So hyped for Superman Legacy. Having established superheroes is a brilliant idea for something fresh but the Amin focus being Lois and Clark. Gunn is all over it 🔥
The established superheroes aspect reminds me of the animated movies which almost all have characters already in the universe without an origin story and they all work. Also Gunn has proved that he can handle multiple characters and also giving the spotlight to one in particular. I have faith in this
As I'm trying to be open minded, my biggest fear is that James Gunn is gonna ruin Superman with silly jokes, which is why I've never really been into Marvel shows or movies lately. Too many silly jokes. I hope I'm wrong
Feels like he's remaking Guardians by giving Superman a ragtag support team and Gunn LOVES boy scout main characters with a single big weakness. Starlord's weakness was his absent space parents. Superman's weakness... is kryptonite. (and absent space parents!)
It'll end up being a dumb reboot oversaturated with b-tier characters no one has heard of, and yes lots of dumb silly jokes that constantly ruin the tension. All these dummies in the threads don't understand this is not what the general public wants from a Superman movie
Grace should be banned for her bad takes from all DC access and screenings lol if Gunn had cast Idris Elba you would’ve complained that he only works with the same actors just like you made that exact point about Nathan Fillion.
Hollywood hates gingers and blondes 😤 Yeah hope for red Hair. Also pls new blonde aquaman (Alan Ritchson would be badass and played him in smallville) , flash (Lucas Till or idk), Green Arrow etc. !! 🙏
It’s important to know Corenswet will look VERY different by the time the film starts shooting, likely for the better. Think Cavill in Immortals vs Man of Steel.
He'll still probably look kinda twinky because that's the look these days. And i think DC really is going to try to make the batman and superman legacy play into each other. Even if theyre not in the same universe.
She was well aware though of how she was explaining the movie making it seem like it’s Black Adam but in reverse and that’s not cool. Also she hasn’t been right since Gunn took over DC and I’m talking projects and casting cause that’s all he’s done up to this point. She’s been right on the current DC movies that WB had a hand in
I think James Gunn is building a version of the Justice League that is similar to the Justice League International roster from the late 80's that had no Flash, Aquaman or Wonder Woman as part of the team, which helps delay the casting of new actors for those roles because so far they don't figure in the line-up of projects of Gods and Monsters. If Gunn really wants to keep Zachary Levi and Xolo Maridueña, then he already has two members from that team. Guy Gardner was also a prominent member. The only popular member was Batman.
But I think that is a mistake. He needs to focus not do some dc version of GoG. SM is the focus, Lex the villain and no one else. Be patient and set the stage.
The Superman Legacy plot leak is giving me Superman IV vibes, in a good way. I know a lot of people rank Superman IV as the worst Superman movie, but in terms of the story I think it was spot on in terms of positioning Superman as a global hero that cared about the greatest good for the greatest number of people -- which for him meant complete nuclear disarmament. It's easy to write a story where Superman saves the day with heat vision and super strength, it's harder to write one where he inspires others to do the right thing. I hope the latter is what we get.
@@Lucas-cz5to of course Amy Adams was great. Hell, I have been a fan of hers since I first saw her in Catch Me If You Can. I am referring to this upcoming film.
If this is true I’d rather it be about an American struggle. Especially given this recent debate about him dropping his catchphrase/ideology of truth, justice and the American way causing some outrage. Having superman being claimed by publjc as an “American” hero and deconstructing what that means maybe alongside how he deals with situations around the world. With different factions (Luther in one corner, heroes in the other, maybe the public represented in the other by people like Lois) all wanting him to handle it in different ways and him having to decide what he stands for and what type of hero he wants to be and what feels right to him.
I hope that the actors for Superman Legacy are able to kick the trend of hitting the “juice” when building muscle for the role. Robert Pattinson did a great job of being athletic without being a roid eating muscle head in the Batman.
1. Clark’s costume design is gonna be crucial. Gotta believe Clark and Supes are two different people. 2.I tried reading The Terrifics. I really did. I lost interest in issue 4. It’s certainly a fresh take on DC but has a slight Marvel tone
Metamorpho is probably going to be the tragic, outcast character like Rocket Racoon. Sadly, this feels like *James Gunn's* Superman, moreso than a definitive modern Superman film. ⚡
I knew when there was a list Nathan Fillion was going to be at the bottom… The only thing I question is why choose him if they wanted to go younger? He’s old…
I completely agree with your ranking, would have much preferred Shayera Hol's Hawkgirl and Hal or John as Green Lantern instead. Gunn's lineup is giving Black Adam JSA lol. Metamorpho looks promising though; he was really charming and cute in Young Justice season 3 cameo, the episode where he helps Batman and Katana vs Deathstroke, Shiva, and Bane. c:
So Castle is my favorite show ever. I think Fillion would be perfect as Guy Gardner. However, I find it weird that Guy is introduced before Hal or John
Maybe Clark Kent is trying to give the people of the Middle East a louder voice, while Superman is helping against a threat there. Seems like it could go a good way and gives both sides of Superman a strong story and showcases him in and out of costume.
The fact that Nathan Fillion is playing Guy Gardner when he's already a perfect choice for Hal Jordan AND has voiced the character in DC animated projects is something I will never understand.
Batman and superman are different. Batman's best comics are the ones where he fights crime in Gotham alone hence why he's best mainstream adaptations are the same. Superman, on the other hand works well with other heroes and some of the best comcis like "whatever happened to the man of tomorrow" and "for the man that has everything," he interacts with other heroes. Plus we've seen multiple movies where superman is solo and other than the 1978 movie, the rest have been divisive. Seeing superman interact with other heroes in his own movie is new and worth giving a shot. It may flop but at least they would've tried something unique.
Exactly the main appeal of Smallville besides the amazing casting was especially the best seasons like 4 and 5 when they started bringing so many others heroes in. Smallville Clark was God tier powerful and is the most powerful incarnation of him in all media but is probably the most loved because it really humanized him. That's what Superman is about. Not trying to make him Batman.
I saw Rachel Brosnahan at the Global Citizens Festival in Central Park a few years ago, and she is so tiny in person. I had no idea she was so short. The height difference between her and Corenswet will be quite the sight.
I just hope the movie doesn’t feel like guardians movies. That seems to be gunn’s MO. I want him to keep the zany to side characters and not all of them.
I felt The Suicide Squad felt totally different from Guardians, I actually cried a few times than most, but his movies always make me feel emotional. Yes, they all have family themes, but at the same time, that’s what makes them so enjoyable to watch with family. Definitely something important to remember.
I mean the marvel movies have every damn hero in everything and no issues lol. It will be a Superman movie for sure these are small characters and who knows if they will be anything more than that.. Mr. Terrific is a scientist doesn’t make sense to have a scientist in a movie? Metamorpho- is a Hired adventurer Lex hires guys like him to find things maybe stuff like kryptonite… instead he finds Orb of ra that basically melts him and turning him to Metamorpho… The characters he added could all work and play a pivotal role in this film.
That brother playing Mr. Terrific is that dude out of X-Men first class that was killed in 10 minutes DESPITE his power being he's supposed to practically be invulnerable.
Tom King's Mr. Terrific looked like actor Nate Parker (Birth of a Nation) in Strange Adventures.....just like Lynn Collins (John Carter) was a perfect ringer for Alanna Strange ...
I am SICK of cameo filled movies. Like right a good story and you don’t have to have big name cameos. RPats Batman was a perfect example. A lot of cameos but it was SO ORGANIC
I pray to god this isn't dorky which by all indication it seems like it will. (Sigh) I am extremely nervous. He shouldn't have added the other supes already. This is a huge misstep considering this is the FIRST Superma film. I been thinking the same like Grace mentioned but (shrugs) let's see.
5:46 Business wise in my opinion, it sounds like a bad idea if the goal is mass appeal/commercial success. Due to the white savior complex, the questions it raises in universe and the fact that it's essentially Black Adam which has actually gone on to be profitable post theatrically. With elements of Wonder Woman 1984 and Batman V Superman.
Grace, Mr. terrific is not African, every actor you just named is African. The Character is a black American and I don’t know why people assume damn black Americans we want to see these African actors that come from Britain when we do not.
Jamie Campbell Bower as Lex Luthor. He could be at a post credits of the movie, revelead to be the mastermind behind the movie treat. They could wait a little with Lex to be honest. He's been done a lot times already
It is not true that no one watches Mrs, Maisel, and even if it was, it has nothing to do with Brosnahan. Elizabeth Olsen is supposedly a big star, but way more people watch Maisel in comparison to Love & Death, sooo... Also, Brosnahan already was an Emmy nominated actress for House of Cards...
I think she said the ratings were low and not many people watch the show. Either way you say it the meaning is the same. I and many others on here have never even heard of the show or her.
I think it's a mistake to point to Brosnahan to explain why Mrs. Maisel isn't more popular. It's a Gilmore Girls-style rapid fire dialogue show on a streamer not super well known for its originals, I would point to that and to other things before it goes all the way down to an award-winning actor, which she is, and who is perfect for Lois. Mrs. Maisel isn't everyone's bag, but I don't think this will affect a Superman audience.
My thoughts exactly. I've never heard of Mrs. Maisel and even so, it doesn't seem like a show I'd check out or that has mainstream appeal
Exactly. I love her casting as Lois and never even heard of that show
I didn't know mrs maisel even existed until this video
yea its one of those shows where you have decide to watch or a friend makes you watch and then you fall in love with the show. But it doesnt grab you on your own I think
I keep getting recommended it but I don't watch Punks or whatever that other show is. I just have no interest in the history of stand up comedy. I had my Joan Rivers phase and its good enough for me.
Brosnahan is the only actor from the cast I actually know, and I think she is just marvelous. Will love to see her as Lois J.
She is clearly the biggest star.
The additional heroes in Black Adam didn’t hurt the film it helped it. The screenplay itself was Blacck Adam’s demise.
Also let’s not forget that the vocal Cavill fans online never showed up to the theater. The box office proves that.
I watched it just for Dr. Fate
Well, I thought at least Atom Smasher and the rainbow tempest character were crap that didn't help the movie. :p
More characters mean less time to focus on their story, it movie making basic
@@simpleplanfan011they did show up that’s why black Adam made the most at the box office out of all the Hamadaverse films.
I think its really important to remember that everyone cast for the live action version of each movie moving forward will also pull double duty as a voice actor for their animated counterpart.
So Gunn is taking into consideration that each actor truly embodies the character. The physicality doesn't matter with muscle suits and the amount of time they'll have to prepare for the movie itself especially with the strikes happening.
So getting versatile character actors makes way more sense all around.

If Alex Skarsguard ends up playing Alex I think this cast will be really good
22 minutes video?!?! SO EXCITED 😮
Thanks for sharing Grace. 😁 Always love your videos and your opinion. 😉 I'm always super stoked for any super hero movie! 🤩🍿🎥
Metamorpho should be in an outsiders movie with Batman
That would have been a better way to introduce DCU Batman... than to do Damian
So Hype For Superman Legacy
So Castle is my favorite show ever. I think Fillion would be perfect as Guy Gardner. However, I find it weird that Guy is introduced before Hal or John
Grace I’ve been dying to hear your thoughts about the new Superman I love all your tea and what you think !!!! Let’s see how this turns out 😱
Stop hating on The Fillion, Grace.....I'd watch Nathan describe paint as he'd watch it dry😂.
Nathan Fillion is awesome and totally fits the character with his charisma and comedy. Quit looking to hate.
Maybe Clark Kent is trying to give the people of the Middle East a louder voice, while Superman is helping against a threat there. Seems like it could go a good way and gives both sides of Superman a strong story and showcases him in and out of costume.
Superman: Free Palestine, Laser the Israelites.
Wut
That screams white savior trope to me.
@@ssshar2176i mean, with this premise what else can be done?
@@Xighor - David Corenswet is Jewish and Superman was modeled after his Jewish creators.
Grace I’m pretty sure Isabela will be playing the Shayera Hol version because it was not specifically said that she was playing Kendra Sanders.
The fact that Nathan Fillion is playing Guy Gardner when he's already a perfect choice for Hal Jordan AND has voiced the character in DC animated projects is something I will never understand.
Gunn did something similar in suicide squad, going to a different fictional country, I’m confident
Alex was pretty much acting like Lex on Succession. Wouldn't be a bad choice.
Thanks for the breakdown Grace ❤
Awesome video
Batman and superman are different. Batman's best comics are the ones where he fights crime in Gotham alone hence why he's best mainstream adaptations are the same. Superman, on the other hand works well with other heroes and some of the best comcis like "whatever happened to the man of tomorrow" and "for the man that has everything," he interacts with other heroes. Plus we've seen multiple movies where superman is solo and other than the 1978 movie, the rest have been divisive. Seeing superman interact with other heroes in his own movie is new and worth giving a shot. It may flop but at least they would've tried something unique.
Exactly the main appeal of Smallville besides the amazing casting was especially the best seasons like 4 and 5 when they started bringing so many others heroes in. Smallville Clark was God tier powerful and is the most powerful incarnation of him in all media but is probably the most loved because it really humanized him. That's what Superman is about. Not trying to make him Batman.
this late grace??? thank you!!! this looks like a fun one
Nathan great cast.
Me : supposed to be sleep for work in the morning
* Grace drops a new vid
Me : sleep can wait
I saw Rachel Brosnahan at the Global Citizens Festival in Central Park a few years ago, and she is so tiny in person. I had no idea she was so short. The height difference between her and Corenswet will be quite the sight.
i dont know why after all these times anyone would still doubt gunn's casting. everyone he has cast in his films, turned out to be gold.
I just hope the movie doesn’t feel like guardians movies. That seems to be gunn’s MO. I want him to keep the zany to side characters and not all of them.
Except Nathan Fillion, Zoe Sandana, Sylvester Stallone, Sean Gunn, Jennifer Holland, Elizabeth Banks, David Denman, etc…
I felt The Suicide Squad felt totally different from Guardians, I actually cried a few times than most, but his movies always make me feel emotional. Yes, they all have family themes, but at the same time, that’s what makes them so enjoyable to watch with family. Definitely something important to remember.
@@vitormateussm nope. dont see the problem with those people.
@@jjjones8609 gunn's films always have strong emotional core. his superhero films all have a big heart. that alone is perfect for superman.
I laughed so hard at her calling Madame Web a stinker before it’s even come out.
Nathan Fillion is Gardner is absolute insanity and I really can’t wait 😮💨
This is gonna be a classic I can feel it
I mean the marvel movies have every damn hero in everything and no issues lol. It will be a Superman movie for sure these are small characters and who knows if they will be anything more than that..
Mr. Terrific is a scientist doesn’t make sense to have a scientist in a movie?
Metamorpho- is a Hired adventurer Lex hires guys like him to find things maybe stuff like kryptonite… instead he finds Orb of ra that basically melts him and turning him to Metamorpho…
The characters he added could all work and play a pivotal role in this film.
That brother playing Mr. Terrific is that dude out of X-Men first class that was killed in 10 minutes DESPITE his power being he's supposed to practically be invulnerable.
Tom King's Mr. Terrific looked like actor Nate Parker (Birth of a Nation) in Strange Adventures.....just like Lynn Collins (John Carter) was a perfect ringer for Alanna Strange ...
Lol
Guardians of the Galaxy was the level up James Gunn.
Perfectly crafted movie.
I think we’ve gotta calm down on making judgements on movies before we even see them
Grace you're on fire this week, awesome content!!! 🙌🏻
THNK U 4 HIGHLIGHTING PALENSTINIAN PEOPLES SUFFERING
I couldn't finish season 1 of Barry but gosh did I adore every single second Carrigan was on screen
The hype is real for Superman Legacy
Can't wait to see Mr terrific
Your videos always make my day! Thank you Grace 😊
Im sure Dwayne johnson is fuming because the similarities to black adam.
i dont think its confirmed that Hawkgirl is Kendra Saunders. i think its unknown which one it will be right now.
I would do more then one version make both sides of the fandom happy with the character of hawkgirl
I am SICK of cameo filled movies. Like right a good story and you don’t have to have big name cameos. RPats Batman was a perfect example. A lot of cameos but it was SO ORGANIC
Whenever the movie comes out I believe this movie will be awesome! 😊 No origin story needed on Supes
I pray to god this isn't dorky which by all indication it seems like it will. (Sigh) I am extremely nervous. He shouldn't have added the other supes already. This is a huge misstep considering this is the FIRST Superma film. I been thinking the same like Grace mentioned but (shrugs) let's see.
It will be corny, its Gunn dude, im not hyped
Crazy that yall are saying that even though this man shits gold when it comes to super hero movies
5:46 Business wise in my opinion, it sounds like a bad idea if the goal is mass appeal/commercial success. Due to the white savior complex, the questions it raises in universe and the fact that it's essentially Black Adam which has actually gone on to be profitable post theatrically. With elements of Wonder Woman 1984 and Batman V Superman.
Grace, Mr. terrific is not African, every actor you just named is African. The Character is a black American and I don’t know why people assume damn black Americans we want to see these African actors that come from Britain when we do not.
Ugh. I'm nervous about this one. At least I have Battinson.
It’s funny you say Hawkgirl is “black Adam type casting” when Hawkman was cast really well in that film
Jamie Campbell Bower as Lex Luthor. He could be at a post credits of the movie, revelead to be the mastermind behind the movie treat. They could wait a little with Lex to be honest. He's been done a lot times already
I think he is a bit young
I think he is a bit young
Personally I love the casting, as a DC fan I can't help but be excited.
It is not true that no one watches Mrs, Maisel, and even if it was, it has nothing to do with Brosnahan. Elizabeth Olsen is supposedly a big star, but way more people watch Maisel in comparison to Love & Death, sooo...
Also, Brosnahan already was an Emmy nominated actress for House of Cards...
I think she said the ratings were low and not many people watch the show. Either way you say it the meaning is the same. I and many others on here have never even heard of the show or her.
