DC’s Titans Season 2 casts Chella Man as mute hero Jericho Wilson


Following the news that DC’s Titans has cast Esai Morales as supervillain Deathstroke, the show has now announced that it has also found his son.

Artist and social media influencer Chella Man has been cast in the role of Deathstroke’s son Jericho Wilson, a character that was created for the DC Comics universe in Tales Of The Teen Titans #43 by Marv Wolfman and George Pérez.

The character of Jericho is described as follows: “Son of the infamous DC villain Deathstroke (played by Esai Morales), Joseph Wilson is the Titan known as Jericho. Mute after his father failed to rescue him from having his vocal cords severed by assassins, Jericho has the unique ability to possess anyone just by making eye contact. This gentle natured yet proud hero has proven himself a formidable Titan.”
