Pierce Brosnan Has Heard Doctor Fate Will Return in Superman Sequel Man of Tomorrow — And He's Down For a Comeback, Too

Pierce Brosnan is open to reprising Doctor Fate in the 2027 Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow as DC Studios expands its mystical character lineup.

  • Pierce Brosnan, who played Doctor Fate once in 2022's Black Adam, said he would be open to returning as Kent Nelson in the Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow on July 9, 2027.
  • A Hall of Justice mural in Superman hints at mystical heroes including Doctor Fate, while James Gunn and Peter Safran position the film as the DCU reset for reintroducing legacy characters.
  • In a GQ interview, Pierce Brosnan said he heard Doctor Fate might get a show or movie and that he could appear in the next Superman.
  • DC Studios has already brought back characters from the old DCEU, so a return for Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate is plausible though there is no official studio confirmation yet.
  • DC's slate lists Supergirl on June 26, 2026 and Clayface on September 11, 2026, while James Gunn said some characters are 'in the works' and added `I think Doctor Fate's in there`.
