“Riverdale” star KJ Apa and “1883” breakout Isabel May are set to star in the DC comedy live-action adaptation of "The Wonder Twins" for HBO Max.
The movie was announced earlier this year and now it has officially found its Wonder Twins. Apa will play Zan, and May will portray Jayna.
Jayna is known for her talent of transforming into an animal, while Zan is a shapeshifter of sorts.
"Black Adam" co-writer Adam Sztykiel is making his directorial debut on the project from a script he wrote.
Production is set to begin this summer in Atlanta.
In 1977, the characters made their debut in "The All-New Super Friends Hour", and then appeared in "The World’s Greatest Super Friends", "Super Friends", and "Super Friends: The Legendary Super Powers Show".
The twins made cameos in other parts of the DC universe since then like "Teen Titans Go!", "Smallville", and "The Flash".
Zan and May were orphaned during a plague and adopted by the alien Exorians. They traveled to earth to warn the Justice League of villain Grax's threat against Earth.
The twins blended into life on Earth as Swedish exchange students, attending Gotham City High School.
They were informally trained by the DC superheroes. Along the way, were given Gleek as a pet.
