Rumors of a Jimmy Olsen spinoff from the new Superman movie, featuring Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen. Only including supporting characters that weren't already cast in the Superman movie. The cast list based heavily on 2 different comic series. One is the 12-issue Superman: Metropolis, which features an A.I. based on Lex Luthor's daughter running Metropolis' infrastructure until she falls in love with Jimmy and becomes distracted. The other is a 6-issue Question miniseries that features Question coming to Metropolis to investigate a crime ring called the Subterraneans that only does business in bathrooms believing that Superman is too much of a boy scout to use his x-ray vision on people's private bathroom moments I figured they could be merged when the AI catches them using the municipal plumbing as pneumatic tubes sending drugs, money, and other contraband around the city and leaks that info to Jimmy.
