Lee Daniels has revealed plans for a gay superhero film with ‘Super Bitch’ star Dremon Cooper.
The Academy Award nominated director posted a video to Instagram yesterday alongside Cooper, and told fans: “Y’all remember maybe 10, 12 years ago I said my dream was to make a gay superhero film?’
“Dreams do come true. And I found my superhero. America, world, get ready.”

He commented on the video: “Dreams really do come true! I had the pleasure of meeting the one and only [Lee Daniels].
“You’re an amazing man filled with great ideas. I can[‘t] wait to work with you.”
