Superman needs parents, and Pa Kent needs a Ma Kent, and therefore actor Neva Howell has been cast as Ma Kent in James Gunn's Superman film, according to a report from The Wrap. This is hot on the heels of The Walking Dead actor Pruitt Taylor Vince reportedly being cast as the aforementioned Pa Kent.
Howell has a few credits under her belt, with her most recent being an appearance in the 2021 film Ghosts of the Ozarks. She also played a minor role in 2017's Diary of a Wimpy Kid movie.
