Dwayne Johnson has taken to social to make it official that he’s heard from DC Studios co-head James Gunn and Black Adam won’t be a part of the first phase of DC’s new plans. “However, DC and Seven Bucks have agreed to continue exploring the most valuable ways Black Adam can be utilized in future DC multiverse chapters.”

James Gunn and Peter Safran have been tasked to shake up the DC Universe and in doing so have scrapped several ideas from the past regime like Henry Cavill’s return as Superman and Patty Jenkins’ take on 3.

Ray Fisher, known for his portrayal of superhero Cyborg in Zack Snyder’s Justice League, is putting new DC co-head James Gunn on blast.

Just over a month and a half after taking over DC Studios, James Gunn is already feeling the wrath from fans after cancelling Wonder Woman 3 and revealing Henry Cavill is not returning as Superman. The 56-year-old filmmaker and new head of DC Studios with Peter Safran took to both Twitter and Instagram on Monday to release a new statement about the 'disrespectful outcry' from fans.While Gunn has yet to unveil DC's new slate and reveal the fates of other films set for 2023, he did insist that his vision will not be affecting by the backlash from a vocal group of fans who still insist on having Zack Snyder return to 'restore the Snyderverse' despite Snyder himself saying he's done with the superhero franchise.

DC studios co-CEO James Gunn has long engaged with fans on Twitter, both as director of movies such as Guardians of the Galaxy and in his new executive capacity at Warner Bros. Discovery. But some of his recent replies have taken a sharper tone since fans began reacting to the news that Patty Jenkins’ plan for Wonder Woman 3 was not moving forward and, more stridently, the revelation that Henry Cavill would not be returning as Superman.

Call it the COVID effect: 2022 has been a year of directors returning to their past and reinterrogating it. Alongside prominent works of autofiction like James Gray’s “Armageddon Time” or Steven Spielberg’s “The Fabelmans,” there’s a less conventional but no less revelatory work that also emerged this year: Mark Pellington’s “Going All the Way: The Director’s Edit.” Note the semantics of the title.

Unless you’ve been living under the proverbial rock, you’ve probably heard that there is drama in the DC film universe. But, of course, when is there not? Recently, it was announced that James Gunn is writing a new “Superman” film, which would focus on the character’s earlier days.

Effective tonight, DC bosses Peter Safran and James Gunn have officially made known their plans for their first movie under their regime: It’s Superman, a script that the latter is currently writing about the Man of Steel’s early days. It’s not an origins story. However, a new actor will be sought to play Superman.

Wow, so DC Studios co-chief James Gunn wasn’t kidding when he said he said some of the decisions surrounding the DC Universe would be tough and difficult, and not everyone would like them. In an Instagram post tonight, Henry Cavill, the would-be Superman—who told the world he was returning to the character in October— revealed that he finally met with Gunn and DC Studios co-chief Peter Safran and said he would not be returning to the Superman role.

UPDATE: James Gunn and Matt Reeves have denied the rumors about integrating “The Batman” into the DCU, calling it “entirely untrue.” You can see his tweet after the original story below… What the hell is going on over at DC Studios? That’s the question on superhero film fans’ minds as we see the beginning stages of James Gunn and Peter Safran’s reign over the DCU.

What the hell is going on over at DC Studios? That’s the question on superhero film fans’ minds, as we see the beginning stages of James Gunn and Peter Safran’s reign over the DCU. That question has been amplified by the recent news that Patty Jenkins is no longer making “Wonder Woman 3” and apparently, there is a not-so-small chance that the entirety of the DCU could be facing a reboot.
