“I would want to do something like a superhero, or even something… it doesn’t matter. I’m really open to being any character. I feel like I can play anybody honestly. It really—I feel like how I pick my films is really what speaks to me.”
Back in 2020, DC announced that a Static Shock film was reportedly on the way. Michael B. Jordan is set to produce the project.
“I’m proud to be a part of building a new universe centered around Black superheroes,” Jordan said when the news was shared that a Static Shock project was in the works.
Currently, McLaughlin co-stars in Netflix’s Stranger Things as Lucas Sinclair.
