Wil Coban

Biography

Wil Coban is a British actor known for his imposing physical presence and versatility in action-heavy roles. A graduate of the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, he first gained attention in major productions like "Zack Snyder's Justice League" (where he played an Atlantean) and George Clooney's sports drama "The Boys in the Boat" (2023). In 2026, Coban has become a recurring presence in James Gunn's new DC Universe (DCU), landing roles in two of the year's biggest superhero releases. He has been cast in the horror-thriller "Clayface" (September 2026), where he plays a character named Bones. While details are kept under wraps, the name suggests a connection to the Gotham City underworld—possibly a reimagining of the classic villain Black Mask's henchman or a new physical threat for the protagonist. Additionally, confirmed reports indicate he will appear in "Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow" (June 2026), starring alongside Milly Alcock. In this sci-fi epic, he plays a character identified as Brute, suggesting he is part of the gallery of intergalactic threats or mercenaries Supergirl encounters on her journey. His dual casting suggests he has become a "go-to" talent for the franchise's stunt-heavy or creature-performance needs.
