One of the Superman<\/a><\/strong> spin-off TV shows has taken a major step forward.<\/p>\n

Warner Bros. Pictures<\/a> and DC Studios<\/a>\u2019 Superman movie was released in July 2025. Directed by James Gunn<\/a>, the DCU<\/a> film stars David Corenswet as the titular superhero, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. A follow-up film, Man of Tomorrow, is now in development.<\/p>\n

Following the release of Superman, it was reported that Gunn and DC were considering making spin-off shows revolving around some of Superman\u2019s supporting characters, such as Mister Terrific or Jimmy Olsen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What is the update on the Superman TV spin-off show?<\/p>\n

Now, per The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>, the Jimmy Olsen spin-off show is officially moving forward as Dan Perrault<\/a> and Tony Yacenda<\/a>, a duo best known for creating Netflix\u2019s American Vandal, will be writing and executive producing the project. They will also both serve as showrunners.<\/p>\n

Skyler Gisondo<\/a> is expected to reprise his role as Jimmy Olsen in the spin-off show \u2014 which, according to Variety<\/a>, has been titled DC Crime<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe concept centers on Olsen, as well as other\u00a0Daily Planet\u00a0reporters (minus Lois Lane and Clark Kent), who tackle cases involving super-powered villains,\u201d The Hollywood Reporter\u2019s article states. \u201cGorilla Grodd<\/a> would be in the spotlight for the season. \u00a0Grodd is a super-intelligent evil ape who rules a secret African city named Gorilla City. The character is a key antagonist for the Flash, and first appeared in an issue of the Scarlet Speedster\u2019s comics back in 1959. He was created by John Broome and Carmine Infantino.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gunn and Peter Safran will both serve as executive producers on the project alongside Perrault and Yacenda, while Gialyin Vaisman will oversee for DC.<\/p>\n

A premiere date for the Superman spin-off TV show DC Crime has not yet been announced. Superman, meanwhile, is currently available to stream on HBO Max, while Man of Tomorrow arrives in 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of the Superman spin-off TV shows has taken a major step forward.
