“I RARELY saw sign language authentically represented on screen growing up, so this incredible opportunity has made my heart soar.”
Man added: “Who you are should NEVER limit what you dream to achieve. Take it from a deaf, queer, Jewish, person of colour who has always dreamed of being a superhero and has now been granted that exact opportunity."
Man, who identifies as genderqueer and uses the pronouns he/him, "Jericho’s mysterious powers are activated by his gaze - if he locks eyes with people he can control their bodies."
