"On our shows, we were dealing with the old Marvel television regime, which operated independently at Disney. And they were thrifty," he admitted.

Simon Kinburg working on the next Star Wars trilogy
Previously worked on Rebels show
Will be after the last trilogy of films, most likely not connected to Skywalker Saga
DCU (50:45)
James Gunn and Peter Safran held a private press event last week
Provides transparency into process and studio, but has painted a picture of two creatives who might be in over their heads
Sometimes one thought something was announced but it was more ‘online’
Gunn said he is "steadfast in making sure that each of these projects works as a standalone project, so that you can go see 'Superman' and you can watch 'Lanterns' without having to see both of them." Safran somewhat contradicted that by stating that DC Studios was relaunched to create a shared universe because "people want to see these iconic characters interacting."
Batman (54:35)
Regarding Robert Pattinson being the DCU’s Dark Knight: "It's certainly not the plan. Like it's certainly not the plan."
The Brave and the Bold is in "active development"
Gunn - “I’m working very closely with the writer on Brave and the Bold"
Writer’s name not revealed
Clayface (55:35)
Currently casting a Daniel Radcliffe type actor for lead
Described by Safran as a "body horror film"
Gunn said the idea is for it to "[work] as a pure horror movie for somebody who doesn’t care at all about DC"
Superman (57:00)
Gunn walks back his take on reshoots
Previously said they did pick ups only, no scenes
Now claiming to have reshot more scenes
“Best source” inside says people watching Superman screenings think it is terrible
Ricky Strauss (Apple TV+, Disney/Hulu) tapped to do marketing campaigns for movie
Waller (series) (1:00:30)
Most likely not filming in 2025
"We’ve taken a couple of cracks at it but still haven’t been able land. Waller has been a bumpy road." - James Gunn
The Authority (1:01:20)
Confirmed to NOT be a priority for the studio and is “not the furthest along”
Swamp Thing (1:01:58)
They only talk to James Mangold “occasionally” about the movie
He is working Star Wars currently
Booster Gold (1:02:40)
Currently at a standstill as well
Safran says a showrunner "Maybe he fell out of love, maybe he got busy, but we had to pivot."
Theory it is Danny McBride
Sgt. Rock (1:03:30)
Officially announced with filmmaker Luca Gaudagnino
Daniel Craig was an “idea” but they never met with him
Teen Titans (1:04:20)
Officially happening with Ana Nogueira (Supergirl) writing the script
"She’s fiddling with that now, but it’s definitely not a finished script."
Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (1:04:55)
Halfway through production as of this week
Deathstroke/Bane (1:05:20)
Rumored Matthew Orton was working on this film but he is working on "something" for them
Safran said it's only "kind of like" a Deathstroke/Bane story
Lanterns (1:06:25)
Has started filming and shown first image of DCU's Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) and John Stewart (Aaron Pierre)
Earth grounded, and Green Lantern ring shown
Seems opposite of CGI fueled Ryan Reynolds movie
Dynamic Duo (1:08:05)
Animated feature using a mix of Puppets and CGI will revolve around 2 Robins
Being written by Matt Aldrich (Coco) and called it "a perfect on-ramp for the family audiences into the world of Gotham."
Gunn revealed, "There might be a way it might fit into the DCU. I would love for this animated puppet movie to be a part of the DCU. That's really appealing to me, but the story is unique, and so it may not work within our universe."
My Adventures with Green Lantern (1:09:45)
Animated series announced with title treatment
"My Adventures with Green Lantern will follow high school student Jessica Cruz, who has her life upended when a Green Lantern Power Ring falls from the sky and chooses Cruz to be its champion. Things get even worse when more debris from the Lanterns’ ancient space war arrives - along with their alien foes."
Starfire (1:10:35)
Animated series announced for DC with title treatment
"Follows her adventures after she uses an ancient spaceship she discovers on her home planet of Tamaran to escape her planet and explore the stars. Along the way, she’ll meet space biker Crush, plant-loving Fern, and the magical Princess Amethyst of Gemworld and, together, they will uncover the deepest reaches of the DC universe, save Space Dolphins, surf technicolor nebulas, and boldly soar into the unknown."
DC Super Powers (1:13:25)
Animated series announced for DC with title treatment
Takes place in the Alliance School for Heroes and follows Lightning, Flash, Plastic Man, Aquagirl, Green Lantern, and Terra as they attempt "to level up their powers under the supervision of Principal Martian Manhunter."
Krypto (1:16:15)
They're working on four seasonal Krypto the Superdog shorts set in the DCU with the first set to drop this September/October.
Safran added, "It’s definitely the Krypto you fall in love with in Superman. He’s a terrible dog."
Wonder Woman (game) (1:22:30)
Gunn and Safran are heavily involved in video games at WB as well it seems
“sit with literally the guys that run the studios underneath JB, whether it's NetherRealm or whether it's Rocksteady, sit with them and talk about characters and stories that we're interested in and that they're interested in.”
WB Games has canceled the upcoming Wonder Woman game, and closed 3 studios: Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and WB San Diego.
Includes studio who worked on Multiversus, which will no longer get updates
Monolith made the award winning Mordor games and their Nemesis system, locked behind Patent till 2036 still

January 26, 2025Supergirl Starts Filming, 4 Star Wars Movie Updates, Daredevil's in the Details, and more!

News
Resident Evil (5:35)
New movie to be written and directed by Zach Cregger (Barbarian)
Will be horror focused and more true to game franchise (probably first 4 games)
The Toxic Avenger (12:35)
Cineverse is releasing the remake as Unrated in theaters this year
Sits at 92% on RT but has been deemed “unreleasable” and “not safe enough to market”
The remake stars Peter Dinklage as Winston Gooze, Elijah Wood, and Kevin Bacon
The Suicide Squad (15:25)
Not canonical to DCU, only Creature Commandos forward
"For instance, Rick Flag Jr was killed because we heard Rick Flag Sr talking about it in Creature Commandos, not because we saw it in The Suicide Squad."
“Only CC forward is pure canon; Peacemaker is almost entirely consistent with that canon other than the Justice League; The Suicide Squad has a lot of consistencies but I think of it as an imperfect memory."
Clayface (19:11)
Character may not be dead after Creature Commandos debut per James Gunn
Movie could also be a prequel or not released in timeline order
Supergirl (25:00)
Movie officially filming with an image from set
Features the House of El symbol (probably), Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El
Location seems to be bar first featured in issue 1 of Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow from Tom King

Has cast Ulrich Thomsen (The Blacklist) as Sinestro in series
Not necessarily a Yellow Lantern yet
Described as "a former Green Lantern who turned rogue and is ruthless yet undeniably charming. Sinestro’s manipulative nature drives his enduring obsession with his former mentee, Hal Jordan."

Current plan to start shooting movie in December
Script written by James Mangold and Beau Willimon (Andor)
Will probably affect Mangold’s start date for DCU’s Swamp Thing

George Nolfi (Bourne Ultimatum; Oceans 12) has been tapped to write script
Set 15 years post The Rise of Skywalker, will follow Rey’s training academy

Star Wars (42:30)
Shawn Levy’s untitled Star Wars movie is reported to have Ryan Gosling star in lead role
Follows up from reports that film is “moving faster than expected” and will begin filming later this year
Most likely release before Dawn of the Jedi but after Mandalorian and Grogu
Will be a standalone film, not connected to the Skywalker saga
