\n\tDan Perrault and Tony Yacenda, who created the award-winning mockumentary American Vandal, are going into the DC Universe.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe duo will write, executive produce and showrun the Superman<\/a> movie TV spinoff to star Skyler Gisondo<\/a>, the actor who played Daily Planet photographer and unlikely ladies\u2019 man Jimmy Olsen.<\/p>\n \n\tGisondo and the character became a true breakout from James Gunn\u2019s summer movie, and a show was put into development around him. The concept centers on Olsen, as well as other Daily Planet reporters (minus Lois Lane and Clark Kent), who tackle cases involving super-powered villains.<\/p>\n \n\tGorilla Grodd 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.<\/p>\n \n\tGunn and his DC Studios co-chief Peter Safran will executive produce. Galen Vaisman is overseeing for DC.<\/p>\n \n\tParrault and Yacenda running the show tips off the tone of the series. The comedy writing duo got a big break with American Vandal, which parodied true-crime series but with a story about an investigation into who and why someone vandalized a school parking lot with phallic images. The show earned a Peabody Award as well as an Emmy nomination.<\/p>\n \n\tThe duo also created Players, a mockumentary of sports documentaries that streamed on Paramount+. Perrault additionally wrote Universal\u2019s R-rated talking dog movie Strays, while Yacenda directed episodes of the Glenn Powell show Chad Powers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda, who created the award-winning mockumentary American Vandal, are going into the DC Universe.…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":370283,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[171,178540,9180,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-370282","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-skyler-gisondo","10":"tag-superman","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-unitedstates","13":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115528095971335354","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370282","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=370282"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370282\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/370283"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=370282"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=370282"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=370282"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
