Superman actor Dean Cain reveals shock decision to join ICE
Share this @internewscast.com

Dean Cain, well-known for his portrayal of Superman in the TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman from 1993 to 1997, has announced his involvement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to aid in their recruitment initiatives.

In a social media video, Cain stated: ‘Being both a sworn law enforcement officer and a filmmaker, I felt compelled to collaborate with our first responders to ensure the safety of Americans, rather than merely discussing it. Therefore, I decided to get involved.’

He urged others to consider careers with ICE, highlighting a $50,000 signing bonus, assistance with student loan repayment, and improved retirement benefits available to those in law enforcement positions.

‘If you want to help save America, ICE is arresting the worst of the worst and removing them from America’s streets,’ Cain said. 

‘They need your help, we need your help, to protect our homeland for families.

‘Join today if it’s something that tickles your fancy because we can use you.’ 

Cain highlighted that, during President Donald Trump’s term, ICE detained ‘hundreds of thousands of criminals, including terrorists, rapists, murderers, pedophiles, MS-13 gang members, and drug traffickers.’

While ICE does report arrests in these categories, reports show that many ICE arrests also include people with no criminal record or minor offenses

Cain’s announcement comes as Homeland Security pushes to recruit more ICE agents. 

Recently, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem urged, ‘Your country needs you to serve at ICE… Collectively, we must protect the homeland.’

Cain has remained closely tied to his Superman role and has supported inclusive portrayals of the character in the past. 

Cain has also expressed his support for Michael B. Jordan taking on the role of a Black Superman and commended James Gunn’s interpretation of the character for embracing themes of belonging and inclusion.

Superman, a character created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster – both sons of Jewish immigrants, is an alien from the planet Krypton who is raised in Kansas and ultimately becomes a symbol of American values. 

In a recent episode of Vox’s Today, Explained, titled Super Mad About Superman, guest scholars and pop culture historians noted that Superman’s story parallels the immigrant experience in the United States. 

They noted that this has always been the case.  

In a scene that Cain is in himself, Superman is frustrated by the fact that Immigration Services ask him for his green card, as they say, ‘You’re an alien, are you not?’

Throughout Trump’s current administration, immigration policies – particularly around family separation and deportation – have been heavily scrutinized. 

PBS reported that at least seven U.S. citizen children were deported alongside their undocumented parents under Trump’s administration, despite their legal citizenship status.

Cain is currently 59, though ICE previously had a maximum age limit of 37 for new applicants. 

The agency has since updated its age guidelines to allow for broader recruitment.
