THE FANDOM ZONE 276: "Harvest" Is Up!

 
"We'll never betray Gravik. Let us go or I'll kill her."
"Oh, I don't doubt you for a moment. The males in my species are very similar. If they're not busy gaslighting you, they're threatening you with murder. That's what all the podcasts are about."
-- Victor Dalton and Sonya Falsworth, Secret Invasion -- "Harvest"

SUPERMAN: LEGACY Casts Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho

The decision to bring the Element Man to the big screen was...elementary.

The Hollywood Reporter has word that James Gunn's upcoming DC Universe film Superman: Legacy has cast Anthony Carrigan as Rex Mason, better known to DC Comics fans as the superhero Metamorpho.

Carrigan joins Superman: Legacy cast members David Corenswet as Superman/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl/Kendra Saunders, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific/Michael Holt, and Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern/Guy Gardner.

Carrigan, who has alopecia, told The Hollywood Reporter that he had Metamorpho on his radar before getting the role. He remarked, "I like comic books, but I’m not a diehard, but I did, when all my hair fell out, go through the kind of pantheon of all of these bald superheroes and supervillains and made note of all of them. I remember seeing Metamorpho and I think he had like a giant like hammer for a hand and I was like, that guy’s badass. Noted. We’ll store that one away."

He added, "This character, from what I’ve learned of the source material, he didn’t like the way he looked, and I can really relate to that. You know, when he got his powers he thought it was a curse. That’s something that I really felt as well. In my case, I turned it around and saw it as a blessing. So, I’m excited to bring that to the table with this character."

Carrigan, 40, recently played NoHo Hank on the HBO series Barry, and has portrayed DC Comics characters The Mist on The CW's The Flash (2014) and Victor Zsasz on the Fox series Gotham. In addition, he's appeared in the films Bill & Ted Face the Music and Fatherhood, and in episodes of the TV series Law & Order: Criminal Intent and The Blacklist.

Created in 1965 by Bob Haney and Ramona Fradon, Metamorpho first appeared in The Brave and the Bold (vol.1) #57 as Rex Mason, an adventurer hired by Stagg Enterprises CEO Simon Stagg to retrieve a rare Egyptian artifact, the Orb of Ra. Shortly after hiring him, Simon Stagg learned that Mason has been dating his daughter, Sapphire Stagg. This and other incidents caused Stagg to dislike Mason enough to plot to kill him. Inside an Egyptian pyramid, Mason was knocked unconscious by Simon's brutish bodyguard Java and was eventually exposed to a radioactive meteorite that fashioned the Orb of Ra, transforming Mason into Metamorpho, the Element Man.

As Metamorpho, Mason gained the ability to shapeshift and change himself into any element or combination of elements found in the human body. It was also established that Metamorpho is virtually invulnerable in his inert (untransformed) state, when Stagg, afraid that Rex was going to kill him, shot him point-blank without effect. Later, it was revealed that Mason is but one of many metamorphae, created by the sun god Ra, using the meteorite, to serve as warriors in his battle against the god Apep, "the serpent who never dies".

Metamorpho cannot assume a normal, fully human appearance, being no longer composed of flesh, blood and bone. As a result, he considers himself a freak and wishes only to be restored to his former human state, initally rejecting an offer of membership from the Justice League. However, Metamorpho later became a member of various incarnations of the Outsiders and the Justice League.

Carrigan will be the first actor to portray Metamorpho in live-action, but the character has appeared in various animated projects, including Justice League and Justice League Unlimited (voiced by Tom Sizemore), Batman: The Brave and the Bold (voiced by Scott Meville), Beware the Batman (voiced by Adam Baldwin), and Young Justice (voiced by Fred Tatasciore).

Superman: Legacy is currently scheduled to arrive in theaters on July 11, 2025.
