Once his DCU was revealed, James Gunn made some comments that have raised blisters. Is his position as head of DC Studios in danger?
He new DCU has come strong. The couple formed by Peter Safran y James Gunnwho took over the dc universe in the month of October, they have revolutionized the entire fandom of DC Comics by restructuring, and almost starting from scratch, the new DCU that we will have from now on. In this time, Gunn and Safran have developed a series of projects, ten at least, while a final project related to Superman is confirmed, which will form part of the first plot arc that they have titled, ‘Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters’.
Using the same system as Marvel Studios, with its different phases, but naming them as chapters. In fact, the head of DC Studios, as it has been renamed to the extinct DC Films, has ensured that his universe is better planned. Either it is a riot, or it is aiming too high after ten years of total disarray and far from how profitable it should be.
Gunn will use the next ‘The Flash’ to almost completely reboot the DC Universe as we know it. In fact, there are constant rumors about the continuity of certain actors who have participated in the Snyderverse. A chaos to which Gunn and Safran have had to put order and concert. David Zaslav was commissioned by Warner Bros. to find a figure which Kevin Feige in Marvel Studios so that he could propose an alternative of how to carry the different IPs of DC Comics. It was clear that things were not working out as they should have been with the man who until then was the CEO of DC Films, Walter Hamada.
Will Warner Bros. fire James Gunn?
After unveiling the 10 projects, Gunn and Safran made a series of statements about what they thought the DCEU had been like so far., and what were the reasons why it had not worked with the same success as Marvel. According to The Hollywood Reporterin his weekly bulletin, has pointed out that lThe statements of both have raised blisters and have raised some hair on end. they have not sat well.
Rather said, the following: They have angered many executives. When Gunn criticizes the old DC, and those who ran it, he is criticizing many executives who are still in their posts today, in fact, some could have positively influenced his final hiring, especially when we have discovered that Gunn was not the first choice on the table.
THR describes both as “filmmakers” y «non corporate«. They describe them as executives who, unlike others who follow the company line or express themselves with made-up speeches full of praise, Gunn and Safran speak their minds. The question is, do they measure the consequences?
“One of them spends a lot of time on Twitter debunking rumors and stoking fan enthusiasm”
For Gunn, and according to THR, answering and raising expectations about the new DCU is, “su joy«. We do not know if the mandate of both will serve to iron out differences or further revolutionize the noble plants of Warner Bros. But it is clear that Gunn and Safran wave their flag, and are willing to do things their way, the way they believe most right, and saying what they believe no matter what. Until now. At least.
Both have affirmed that there is nothing that prohibits the actors of the four DC films in 2023 from returning in the future. Including the flash of Ezra Miller, who Safran has assured that his continuity will depend on the success of his new tape.
Are the positions of Safran and Gunn in danger? Not for the moment. But THR claims that angry voices and long faces have been heard. But those who see this as an attack is nothing more than acknowledging that things have been done well. It’s hard to disagree with Gunn’s criticisms. They are not actual offenses. But obviously they will negatively influence his next labor relations with the noble plant.
On the other hand, honestly, after what it took to find the right DC Studios CEOs to come up with a logical and viable plan, having to face layoffs and their consequences, the fans and the networks, it is very difficult that Warner is going to let this be a problem.
