Writers Chosen For Michael B. Jordan’s “Val-Zod” Superman HBO Max Project

The Superman project from Michael B. Jordan for HBO Max is picking up steam as Deadline is reporting that Darnell Metayer & Josh Peters are set to write the project, now known as Val-Zod, for HBO Max. Michael B. Jordan’s Outlier Society is producing the project for DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television; it is said to be presenting as a “limited series.”

Here’s how Deadline describes the project:

Val-Zod is the story of another Kryptonian with powers who hails from the same doomed planet as Superman. The hero is Black, and he finds refuge on Earth 2. Like the original Man of Steel, he is sheltered on his adopted planet but eventually in the comics is pitted against a brainwashed Superman.
