Summary
Jimmy Tatro has closed his deal to play Gorilla Grodd in HBO Max’s Jimmy Olsen-focused “Superman” spinoff, confirming casting rumors that surfaced last week.
Grodd is the hyper-intelligent, telepathic ape villain who seeks to rule both simian and human worlds, signaling a major comic-book antagonist for the project.
Skyler Gisondo is expected to reprise Jimmy Olsen, tying the series directly to the broader “Superman” screen universe.
HBO still has not officially greenlit the series, leaving the project in development even as key casting moves forward.
