The stars of My Adventures with Superman share who they would love to appear from other DC media on their show and their hopes of playing their characters in live-action. It has been nearly a year since the ending of My Adventures with Superman season 1, as Warner Bros. Discovery’s new animated series on the Man of Steel began a new chapter for the hero on the small screen. With a lot of questions left unanswered, My Adventures with Superman season 2 is getting ready to finally launch this week.

Ahead of the My Adventures of Superman season 2 premiere, Screen Rant interviewed the show’s leading trio, Jack Quaid (Clark Kent/Superman,) Alice Lee (Lois Lane,) and Ishmel Sahid (Jimmy Olsen) about what to expect in the new season. As there have been numerous actors to play their iconic characters in live-action, Quaid, Lee, and Sahid were asked if there were any former Superman, Lois, and Jimmy actors they would love to see guest star in the series, even as animated versions of their respective characters, and shared the following:

Screen Rant: One of my favorite episodes last season was the League of Lois Lanes and the whole Multiverse aspect. I’m hoping we may get to see that again at some point. If you guys could, because there have been a lot of actors who played all three of your characters, are there any Superman, Lois, and Jimmy actors you would love to have come on the show and kind of play their own character in animation, as a crossover?

Jack Quaid: That’s a really good question. Forever ago, I did this pilot that never got picked up with David Corenswet, who is about to be Superman in James Gunn’s movie, so I just want to work with David again, because he’s awesome. So bring him bring him in there, that’s my easy answer.

Ishmel Sahid: That’s a really good question. I would bring myself in it!

Jack Quaid: Live-action Ishmel [as Jimmy] playing yourself, I just need that!

Alice Lee: I guess for me, anyone from the Smallville world would be cool, just because I watched it growing up, so any of them would be super cool. And also Rachel Brosnahan, I think she’s amazing, so that would also be very cool.

On the subject of James Gunn’s DC Universe, Screen Rant also asked the My Adventures with Superman stars if they would ever be interested in playing their characters in live-action through DC Studios’ upcoming franchise, as they gave the following responses:

Screen Rant: I would love to see you guys even play your own characters in live action – with crossovers being possible now between animation and live-action, Jack, you know that very, very well, [Through his work on Star Trek: Lower Decks and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds,] would you want to take part, at some point, in James Gunn’s DC Universe, if he came and asked?

Jack Quaid: A resounding yes! [laughs] Yeah. I’d do it in any way, it’s so cool. [If it’s] animation or live-action, I think we’re all down, yeah.

Alice Lee: Also, I think for me, I haven’t seen an actual Asian Lois Lane, so [to play her] in live-action, that would be cool. So yes, a resounding yes, like Jack said.

How My Adventures With Superman Could Crossover With James Gunn’s DCU

While Gunn’s DC Universe is getting started later this year, DC Studios has already set up the possibility that My Adventures with Superman could, at some point, crossover with Chapter 1, “Gods and Monsters.” One of the foundations established in 2023 is that the DC Universe will be interconnected across live-action, animation, and video games. If an actor gets cast to voice a character in a DC Universe-related project, they are also automatically being tapped to play their live-action counterpart, with the animated Creature Commandos TV show set to execute that.

Even though My Adventures with Superman wasn’t conceived as part of DC Studios, there is no reason why the same rules couldn’t apply to them, where any of the voice actors play their live-action counterparts in a multiverse-based storyline. Once the DC Universe gets further established, while My Adventures with Superman gets deeper into its run, it would be fascinating to see the show crossover with Gunn’s world. Given how My Adventures with Superman has already tackled the multiverse concept, that type of storytelling is already an organic plot device for them.

With My Adventures with Superman continuing to grow popular, it wouldn’t be shocking to see the show somehow acknowledged down the road in Gunn’s DC Universe. Given how Corenswet and Quaid have also already publicly shown support for each other, seeing the two Superman actors together in any capacity would open a new door for DC Studios when it comes to having live-action and animation interconnect. Hopefully, whether it is on the big screen or the DC Universe actors showing up on My Adventures with Superman in animated form, there will come a time when a crossover gets to happen between these DC properties.
