My Adventures with Superman cast: Voice actors & characters

Below, we’ve listed all the characters in the voice cast of My Adventures of Superman. We’ll update this list if there’s any surprise appearances or cameos.

The official synopsis reads: “In this serialized coming-of-age story, we follow Clark as he builds his secret Superman identity and embraces his role as the hero of Metropolis – and perhaps the world. Lois, now growing into a star investigative journalist, takes aspiring photographer Jimmy Olsen under her wing. All the while, Clark and Lois are falling in love, sharing adventures, taking down bad guys, stumbling over secrets, and discovering what it means to be Superman and Lois Lane.”

Furthermore, a second season of the show has already been greenlit, as confirmed by Jake Wyatt on Twitter.

Kal-El / Clark Kent / Superman: Jack Quaid

Jack Quaid plays Superman, aka Clark Kent, or to the Kryptonians out there, Kal-El.

He told Collider: “I think it’s a version of Superman that we haven’t really seen before. I love that he’s new to his powers as well. There’s still certain powers that he’s discovering like he doesn’t really know that he has. And it’s just been such a great experience that I consider just such a gift, you know, I still can’t believe that I’m involved, and I think the show is wonderful.”

Quaid is best known for playing Hughie in The Boys, but he’s also starred in Scream, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Star Trek: Lower Decks, and he’s due to appear in Oppenheimer.

Lois Lane: Alice Lee

Alice Lee plays Lois Lane, an aspiring investigative reporter who falls in love with Clark Kent.

When asked how she wanted her iteration of the character to stand out, Lee told Screen Rant: “I guess whatever it was, I wanted to bring my own flavor, whatever my version was. The show itself is such a different tone than what I’ve seen before with Superman. And so that in itself informed the way I was going to do Lois Lane. Really trusting the process, trusting the creators, and trusting that whatever I was doing was what they wanted for the show. I think just bringing Alice into Lois Lane and doing her justice.”

Lee has also starred in Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist, Take Two, Faking It, and Sierra Burgess is a Loser.

Jimmy Olsen: Ishmel Sahid

Ishmel Sahid plays Jimmy Olsen, a Daily Planet photographer working with Lois Lane to break the stories that matter.

Sahid also told Screen Rant: “I kind of want to just bring my essence to the character, bring a youthful spirit, make Jimmy cool. I’ve hit the nail on the head with that one. Coolest one out of the crew. I just wanted to do fun lively spirit to Jimmy and hopefully it will resonate with them.”

Sahid recently appeared in Jury Duty, as well as That Girl Lay Lay and Cousins for Life.

Lana Lang: Jeannie Tirado

Jeannie Tirado plays Lana Lang, a longtime friend (and possible love interest) for Clark Kent.

Slade Wilson / Deathstroke: Chris Parnell

Chris Parnell plays Slade Wilson, aka Deathstroke, a villainous assassin.

Executive producer Jake Wyatt told Comics Beat: “Initially we had Chris Parnell cast for a double role, one of which was a sympathetic secondary protagonist and another who was a villain. We liked him as both, to be clear. We loved what Chris did for both of them. Eventually we recast the secondary role for executive reasons and kept Chris as the villain… we had everybody read for both parts and he killed both parts. He did a really good job and he’s a joy to work with.”

Parnell is best known for his work in Rick & Morty and Archer.
