James Gunn denies Fallout and Andor stars are testing for Superman-obsessed alien queen Maxima, but there's still one role to cast for Man of Tomorrow

Reports are circulating that Man of Tomorrow director James Gunn is considering Andor actor Adria Arjuna for the role of Maxima in the Superman sequel. However, Gunn himself has debunked those rumors, calling them "crazy."

The reports, courtesy of Deadline, also initially named Marisa Abela and Ella Purnell as other candidates for Maxima. However, Gunn refuted the rumors so forcefully on social media that Deadline issued a retraction, altering their article to remove Abela and Purnell's names as Gunn says he's never even met them, let alone auditioned them for roles in the film.
