Metamorpho, actual title Rex Mason, was created by Bob Haney and Ramona Fradon in 1965. He can transmute parts in his physique into numerous types, taking these properties on as powers. After first being an archeologist, his skills set him on the trail of heroism. He later turned a detective and a founding member of the supergroup referred to as the Outsiders.
Carrigan, who performed NoHo Hank on Bill Hader’s profitable HBO collection (and has not too long ago scored one other Emmy nomination for the function) had already thought concerning the character earlier than he obtained the function.
This is what he advised The Hollywood Reporter:
“I like comic books, but I’m not a diehard, but I did when all my hair fell out, go through the kind of pantheon of all of these bald superheroes and supervillains and made note of all of them. I remember seeing Metamorpho and I think he had, like, a giant like hammer for a hand and I was like, ‘that guy’s badass. Noted. We’ll store that one away.’ This character from what I’ve learned of the source material, he didn’t like the way he looked, and I can really relate to that. When he got his powers he thought it was a curse. That’s something that I really felt as well. In my case, I turned it around and saw it as a blessing. So, I’m excited to bring that to the table with this character.”
