A ‘Booster Gold’ Series Is In Development For The DC Universe

Included in James Gunn and Peter Safran’s DC Universe slate were a few surprising announcements. One such surprise was the reveal that a Booster Gold series is in development.

Created by Dan Jurgens in 1986, Booster Gold first appeared in Booster Gold #1. Michael Jon Carter is a man from the future who travels to the past to make it as a superhero. While originally depicted as a showboat who stages publicity shots with his knowledge of the past, he eventually develops into a more layered hero weighed down by his own history who would even go on to join the Justice League.

Gunn described Booster Gold as a superhero with imposter syndrome, so it will be interesting to see how the character proves himself in the series. The studio is already in discussions with an actor for the role, but Gunn did not reveal who it is.
