“Y’all remember maybe 10, 12 years ago I said my dream was to make a gay superhero film?” he said. “Dreams do come true. And I found my superhero. America, world, get ready.”
SuperBitch seemed equally excited about the project, writing in the caption that it was a dream to meet Daniels.
“You’re an amazing man filled with great ideas,” he wrote. “I can wait to work with you!”

The Southeast DC native has filmed a bunch of DIY scenes where he fabulously beats up homophobes and other villains to the sounds of over-the-top electric guitars.
