DCEU for a few seconds but has already managed to infuriate and even alienate some of their hardcore fanbase with the decisions he’s been making as of late.

James Gunn Responds to Superman Backlash, Says DC Studios Choices Are “Best for the Story”
James Gunn has addressed the backlash over his decision for Henry Cavill to not return as Superman. The DC Studios co-head addressed the “uproarious and unkind” response via a series of tweets in which Gunn promised his decision-making for the future of the DC Extended Universe would not be affected by “disrespectful outcry.” “Our choices for the DCU are based upon what we believe is best for the story & best for the DC characters who have been around for nearly 85 years,” Gunn wrote, on the behalf of co-CEO Peter Safran and himself. Though he doesn’t mention Superman by name, the character debuted in the comic book Actions Comics #1, published in 1938. Adding that “no one loves to be harassed or called names,” Gunn continued, “Disrespectful outcry will never, ever affect our acti...
Henry Cavill Will No Longer Play Superman As James Gunn Begins Work on New Film
Despite announcing his return as Superman in October, Henry Cavill has revealed that he will no longer reprise his role as the hero. Instead, new DCEU head James Gunn is moving forward with a new film focusing on a younger version of the character that he himself is writing. “After being told by the studio to announce my return back in October, prior to their hire, this news isn’t the easiest, but that’s life,” Cavill said in an Instagram post on Wednesday night. “This changing of the guard is something that happens. I respect that. James and Peter [Safran] have a universe to build. I wish them and all involved with the new universe the best of luck, and the happiest of fortunes.” Gunn also confirmed Cavill’s exit on Twitter. “In the initial stages” of the film, he explained, “our story wi...
DCEU Head Honcho James Gunn Cancels ‘Wonder Woman 3’
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Warner Bros. / Warner Bros. When Guardians of The Galaxy director/writer James Gunn took over as the studio chief for DC films over at Warner Bros. earlier this year, he promised big changes and boy is he delivering on that promise. According to Variety, James Gunn is already making moves over at Warner Bros. and the first official casualty of his new regime is Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman franchise that started off with a bang in 2017 but ended, for now, with a whimper when Wonder Woman 1984 belly-flopped both critically and commercially in 2020. According to a studio insider, after Jenkins submitted a treatment for a third “Wonder Woman,” she was informed by studio leadership that it did not mesh with Gunn and Safran’s emerging plans for the DC Universe,...
Wonder Woman 3 May No Longer Be Happening: Report
Add this to the chaos that currently surrounds DC Comics properties: A Gal Gadot-starring Wonder Woman 3 may not be moving forward. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the previously greenlit film looks to be a casualty of the regime change at WarnerMedia-owned DC, which recently hired James Gunn and Peter Safran to guide the next phase of the beloved characters on screen. Wonder Woman 3 was set to be directed by Patty Jenkins, and she and writer Geoff Johns had turned in a treatment for the new film before being told by Gunn and Safran that it wouldn’t fit into future plans for the franchise. (THR notes that canceling the film could save Warner millions of dollars, as both Gadot and Jenkins were to receive pay bumps.) More awkwardly, just a day ago Gadot posted a message to social media ...
