Joaquin Phoenix's Forgotten Superboy Role and the DC Projects That Never Were
Joaquin Phoenix BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Joaquin Phoenix has kept a notably low profile over the past few days with no fresh public appearances business moves or social media mentions according to the Apple Podcasts Biography Flash episode on him. Slashfilm dropped a nostalgic bombshell on February 23 revealing that before his iconic Joker role the then 15 year old Phoenix credited as Leaf Phoenix briefly suited up as Superboy in a wild daydream sequence from the 1989 season one episode Little Hercules of the forgotten late 80s TV series Superboy. In the surprisingly violent scene young Billy Hercules whom Phoenix played imagines emerging from a dumpster to zap a bully with heat vision melting him into goo before super breath slamming another into a vending machine a gritty footnote in his shift from TV kid to movie star. This retro scoop resurfaced amid DC Universe buzz about potential new Superboy projects tying into Phoenixs blockbuster past with Joker and its sequel flop. Meanwhile a Blank Check podcast Substack post this week name checked him in Lynne Ramsays long gestating passion project Polaris or Dark Slides a period piece set in 1910 Alaska starring Phoenix alongside Rooney Mara with composer Jonny Greenwood praising the scripts chilling vibe though its still far from production after years of delays. No major headlines broke on new ventures but AOL echoed the Superboy story underscoring his early DC hero turn long before Arthur Fleck. An older Entertainment Weekly piece from February 4 noted Pedro Pascal stepping in to save Todd Haynes gay romance film after Phoenixs controversial exit which shuttered the project though thats not fresh news. Fan chatter popped up on Ask a Manager February 21 open thread with one user speculating Phoenix chases weird roles keeping supporters hooked. Overall the brooding star stays enigmatic fueling intrigue without spotlight grabs his early Superboy obscurity potentially etching a quirky biographical notch amid stalled epics like Polaris.
