Summary

James Gunn confirms that Michael Rooker will not be appearing in Superman: Legacy, putting an end to speculation about the actor's involvement.
The Superman: Legacy production is moving forward with new cast members after the recent conclusion of the SAG-AFTRA strike.
Gunn sets the record straight and clarifies that his Guardians of the Galaxy collaborator is not joining the DC Universe for Superman: Legacy.

While several of his Guardians of the Galaxy collaborators are joining the DC Universe, James Gunn sets the record straight about one of them being added to Superman: Legacy. While there are multiple DC Universe movies and TV shows coming from DC Studios, the one the world is paying the most attention to right now is Gunn's Superman: Legacy. Set to focus on a younger Clark Kent during his early days as the Man of Steel, Superman: Legacy is in pre-production as they hope to get everything ready for filming to start in March 2024.
Since the SAG-AFTRA strike came to an end, the Superman: Legacy cast has grown beyond those added prior to the strike. However, the rumor mill has also been active again, as a recent claim stated Michael Rooker, who played Yondu in Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy movies, was being eyed to play Sam Lane, Lois Lane's father, in Superman: Legacy.

Anthonybeltre123 recently asked Gunn on Threads if Rooker is actually appearing in Superman: Legacy as General Lane. It didn't take long for Gunn to clarify the situation, stating that "it is not" true.
