James Gunn video

quote:

The future of the DC Universe is here. James Gunn and #DCStudios have mapped the next 8-10 years of the #DCU.

Chapter 1 will be focused on “Gods and Monsters” with five new films and five television series for HBO Max already in development.


THR article on the new slate

quote:

DC Slate Unveiled: New Batman, Supergirl Movies, a Green Lantern TV Show, and More from James Gunn, Peter Safran


quote:

A new Batman movie without Robert Pattinson (but featuring Bruce Wayne’s murderous son). A Superman movie on the release schedule (mark your calendars for July 11, 2025). A Game of Thrones-style drama set on Wonder Woman’s home island of Themyscira (Amazonian palace intrigue). And an animated series already in production (Creature Commandos … wait, what?).

And from Deadline

quote:

DC Bosses “Didn’t Fire” Henry Cavill; Talk Fate Of Robert Pattinson, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Filmmakers & More In New Universe


quote:

As far as Robert Pattinson as Batman goes, he will not be starring in the new DC Universe Batman and Robin movie The Brave and the Bold as Gunn and Safran will want a new face for that edgy tale about the Dark Knight and the unhinged, spitfire son he never knew about, Damien Wayne. Pattison will continue to play Batman in Matt Reeves’ sequel, Batman II, which is currently being penned.

Creative Commandos (An animated HBO Max show)

DC needs to chill with the grandiose plans, or at least making them public, before they even release one movie of the "Gunn era"

When Iron Man came out, we didn't know anything about Phase 1 or even the MCU at that point. There were hints, but nothing was set in stone.

Gunn is going to grind what few bones are left of the DC movie universe into dust.

Among those on the slate is Superman. In the initial stages, our story will be focusing on an earlier part of Superman’s life, so the character will not be played by Henry Cavill.

The best DCEU film by far, with Shazam a distant second.

The problem for DC is that Hollywood loathes the values of its franchise characters. They can’t write Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman because they hate what those characters stand for.

I too yearn for mumbled dialog interlaced with terrible editing decorated in a cacophony of deep overbearing foghorns
