Jack Quaid, famous for playing Hughie Campbell in "The Boys," took to Instagram a few hours ago, revealing the exciting news that the halted animation, "My Adventures with Superman," set to be released later this year.

The actor divulged that the series would be hosted on Adult Swim and Toonami. His post reveals vital information for the comic and animation world, but his association perplexed some followers.

Some of Jack's fans were excited and commented about his Superman shirt. One user revealed a coincidence, saying, "Saw this post while wearing my Superman shirt." At the same time, another clowned the actor for his body language in the snap. "This is such a first day of school pose," they joked.

Contrary to the positive comments, including that of the official Instagram page saying Jack was the perfect casting for the role, some fans were doubtful. "Jack Quaid as Superman? What's next, Michael Cera as 'Shaft'?" someone questioned.

Another person said his casting resembles Tom Cavanagh playing A-Train—a fictional character from "The Boys" who was instrumental in starting the first season by unintentionally killing Jack's character's girlfriend. We have also compiled a rundown of his known real-life romantic links.

The series keeps within the classic Superman tale of him finding love with famed Metropolis journalist Lois Lane, portrayed by Justin Long's fiancée, Kate Bosworth, in "Superman Returns." The story details their relationship and the secrets they uncover, playing vital roles in the city opposite each other.

In addition to Jack's revered role as the sweetheart revenge-dawned lover of Starlight, a character portrayed by Erin Moriarty, the actor is also known for starring in "The Hunger Games" franchise, the 2016 series "Vinyl," and "Scream VI," which was released last year.

Jack is from a family of Hollywood professionals, and his father is the famous "The Parent Trap" star Dennis Quaid. The actor who welcomed Jack with his second ex-wife Meg Ryan is now married to a woman roughly 39 years younger than him.

After his divorce from Ryan ten years into their marriage in 2001, the actor married Kimberly Buffington in 2004. They welcomed twins Thomas Boone Quaid and Zoe Grace Quaid three years into their marriage. Kimberly and Jack's father divorced in 2016, leading to his current marriage to his junior wife.
