Superman: Legacy Casts A Flash & Gotham Veteran As Metamorpho

Recently Emmy nominated for his role on Barry, actor Anthony Carrigan has landed a role in the Superman: Legacy film — and it’s not his first go into the DC Universe.

Anthony Carrigan will be playing Rex Mason a.k.a. Metamorpho in the 2025 movie, but fans of DC TV should already be very familiar with his work. He was Kyle Nimbus a.k.a. The Mist on The Flash CW television series and then played Victor Zsasz in several episodes of FOX’s Gotham.

Metamorpho is known as “The Element Man” in DC Comics and was introduced nearly 50 years ago in DC Comics. He was a fixture in the Outsiders comic book series as well as various Justice League comics in the 1990s. As far as we know, this is likely the live-action debut for the character.

Carrigan’s casting was revealed today by The Hollywood Reporter.
