Could This Be Our First Look At Matt Bomer As Negative Man In ‘Doom Patrol’?

After a recent casting announcement, audiences were given what could be our first look at Negative Man in the upcoming Doom Patrol series.

Earlier today it was revealed that actor Matt Bomer would take on the role of Negative Man for the live action Doom Patrol series. The news came during a screening of the Titans show where the actor was revealed. The actor himself was dressed in what appeared to be a jumpsuit with what appeared to be a blue screen set behind him. Beside him was the image of the character himself.

Bomer is perhaps best known for his role in the USA series, White Collar, where he portrayed criminal Neal Caffrey. He is currently expected to portray the character in flashback scenes as well as provide the voice of the character in present scenes. The show is expected to debut sometime in 2019.
