Nearly a decade ago, Lee Daniels revealed that he dreamed of creating a superhero film starring a gay protagonist. It’s been a long time in the making, but apparently his dream is on the verge of coming true. Daniels recently took to Instagram on Tuesday (Jan. 15), and announced that he will be making a gay superhero flick, and he’s found the perfect lead.
Daniels is reportedly teaming up with viral star, SuperB***h for the new movie. “Y’all remember maybe 10, 12 years ago I said my dream was to make a gay superhero film?” he said in a video message on IG. “Dreams do come true. And I found my superhero. America, world, get ready.”
SuperB***h also commented on the news in the caption of the video. “You’re an amazing man filled with great ideas,” he wrote. “I can wait to work with you!”
