Has there ever been a movie set in a superhero universe that is about a non-superhero character? (lemmy.ca)

For example, I'd like to see a Lois Lane movie

Or maybe a tv series or comic book

I'm not super familiar with that show but it is about superpowered characters isn't it?

Of course that brings up the question of what the definition of a superhero is. Technically Batman, Black Widow, and Hawkeye are non-superpowered characters

    The first season is more about the effects of super power on normal people lives and they react about it … after that there’s a lot of power that are thrown around

    What you’re searching have been done in comics but not a lot in TV or movie IIRC

    The Boys is about non-superhero characters in a superhero universe, pretty much matches your post question. The core group of people ("The Boys") start out as regular people living in a world being trashed by people with superpowers.

    As the series progresses it does veer off from that but maybe the first season is closer to what you're looking for.
