DC Studios Developing Mr. Terrific Series

Industry reports name Allan Heinberg as the pilot writer for a solo Edi Gathegi Mr. Terrific show with no formal series order announced.

Overview

  • Reports published July 3–4 and attributed to The Hollywood Reporter say DC Studios is in active development on a Mr. Terrific TV series centered on Edi Gathegi’s Michael Holt.
  • Multiple outlets report that veteran writer Allan Heinberg, known for The Sandman and Wonder Woman, is attached to write the pilot, a sign the project has creative momentum.
  • Coverage stresses the news describes early-stage development rather than a greenlight and notes DC Studios has not confirmed a platform, episode count, release window, or full creative team.
  • The move follows Gathegi’s well-received supporting turn in 2025’s Superman and fits DC’s strategy of expanding the universe through smaller, character-focused projects.
  • Michael Holt’s Mr. Terrific is a genius-level, tech-driven DC hero and the reported series would build on his cinematic appearance while fans and industry watchers wait for formal confirmation from DC Studios or Warner Bros.
