Jimmy Tatro is reported to be in talks to join DC’s live-action Superman spinoff series, described as “DC Crime,” in the role of Gorilla Grodd, according to sources cited by Deadline and ComingSoon.net. The announcements come before any official greenlight for the Jimmy Olsen spinoff has been confirmed. DC’s description of Gorilla Grodd characterizes him as “a hyper-intelligent telepathic ape” who has sought to rule, and production reporting indicates Tatro would portray the villain in the project. Neither report provides a finalized cast agreement, and both characterize the situation as discussions rather than a completed deal. ComingSoon.net frames the casting possibility as a potential fit for the character, while Deadline reports the development as an exclusive sourced update. The available coverage does not include additional details on the series’ production status beyond the note that the project is not yet formally greenlit. The reports also do not specify timelines, episode counts, or whether the series will directly follow the Jimmy Olsen character.
