Matthew Lillard joins Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow
Matthew Lillard has joined James Gunn's Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow, though his role has not been disclosed. Filming is underway on the DCU tentpole, which is scheduled to open July 9, 2027, and the cast already includes Adria Arjona and Lars Eidinger. Lillard arrives after a busy year that included a Marvel appearance and his turn as William Afton in Five Nights at Freddy's, adding a recognizable genre actor to the project. His casting matters because Lillard's history of distinctive supporting roles can shape expectations for the sequel's character lineup.
