John Leguizamo joined critics of Dean Cain on social media after the Superman actor sparked backlash for revealing he works for ICE.

Both Superman and Cain have reentered the public eye in recent months. In July, “Superman” (2025) director James Gunn spoke about the Man of Steel’s immigrant origins, calling the story of Superman “ the story of America ,” and one of “basic human kindness.” Cain took offense to this framing.

HBO comedian Bill Maher has MAGA Superman actor Dean Cain for signing up to be an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent. Cain—known as the star of 1990s TV hit Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman—announced he was joining ICE this week after appearing in a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recruitment video.
