"One of the things that's very important for me... is that the director's vision and the vision of the writers and all of the creators is unique.. and something special. Storytelling is always king, that's all that matters to us." That sold me on the whole thing, Gunn sounds like he wants to present a unique vision for the artists making these works, and that’s especially valuable. I’m really excited for the future of DC.

[@ObligedUniform]

Precisely. A Plan for sure of generally where they want to go, but leaving HOW they get there, to the individual writers/directors. At least as far as not contradicting each other overtly.

[@raveoreynolds6049]

Easier said than done. The very nature of making a connected universe limits even the most creative minds.

[@abonny]

And yet, he writes most of these... It's a bunch of bullshit. Just words. His earlier comment that he made about wanting actors that are "easy to work with" also show that he doesn't want people to speak up.

[@yash1140]

He just said something Snyder had been doing all along.

[@kptmaci4979]

I really love marvel movies, but those that really stand out to me are the ones, where you can clearly see some director's envolvment. People dislike Doctor Strange 2 for that campy horror style vibe, but I absolutely loved it. Hearing DC is going for direction of making each movie or series totally different genre has me already hooked. I hope they make those expectations reality. Green Lanterns in the style of space Detective? Hell yeah!

We are getting new Batman, Superman, and (even though it was not said) Wonder Woman (all 3 recasted). I believe flash and aquaman will be recasted after their current movies come out ( perhaps 1 more each sequels if they are massive hits). The new dc won’t have new flash or aquaman until the old cast is done and introduced much later with new actors.

[@Tao_Tology]

@@jjjones8609 Imo it's a shame if Godot and Momoa's roles are recast. Definitely a case of muddled writing rather than 'the films were great......apart from the leads'. Not to mention they were there during the mess revolving cast of executives were making of the DCU.

[@jjjones8609]

They need younger versions of the characters in order to span 10 to 15 years with the same actors. Writing and directing have been an issue. (Especially Wonder Woman 1984. Had that been good, we would still get a third and finale gal Wonder Woman. Gal would look out of place if the other part of the trinity is 10 years younger than her.

If we get a game of a to-be movie character, then imagine if we get like Troy Baker or Laura Bailey to show up in live action since they will most likely be doing voice work.

[@theuprising2216]

alot of devs for games brought up the infeasibility of that the other way around so movie/show actors playing the game counterpart there's no way that will work unless those actors take a massive hit in terms of what they will be paid which is extremely unlikely which is why voice actors aren't the same actor from movies and tv in the first place because its simply too expensive the only way this would ever be feasible is if DC personally puts it in a contractual obligation so DC pays them for those game appearances not the actual studio it only works 1 way which is game voice actors playing on screen characters it does not work the other way which is movie/show characters playing game characters

[@MagisterV224]

James Gunn looks so excited and happy to be working on these projects. I think bringing him in was a perfect decision for the DCU. Finally we have some clarity. We have both single storyline as well as passion projects, which is exactly what the oh DC comics were.

[@nahuel3433]

Since this announcement I have read Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow and damn, now I'm super excited for that. That comic slaps and they are making an adaptation of that? I might cry in the theater.

[@johnaldridge83]

I'm so insanely excited for Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow. That comic run was fantastic

[@smiddlehurst1]

I've been meaning to grab it for a while and this finally kicked me into doing so. Good timing as it happened, the entire 8 issue collected edition is under £4 on Comixology! About two thirds of the way through and loving it so far, especially the fact they really go out of their way to show her strength and determination in inventive ways. I'm a *little* nervous as Gun describes Kara as "jaded" which... isn't quite right and boy oh boy is there a long history of DC doing her dirty. But if they adapt this well they should have a really good film on their hands and, more importantly, something totally different from a Superman movie. For those that haven't read it... well, do so, it's superb but think Supergirl meets John Wick via Leon. In space. Oh and while I'm sure they won't go this route until the official announcement comes out still going to hold out hope they cast Melissa as I can see her crushing this version of Kara.

[@gerardlacroix6015]

@@smiddlehurst1 I think a mini-series would have worked better given the episodic format of the comic. But yeah... If they successfully adapt it, it's gonna be great. Loved this version of Supergirl, and I think it was the best run on the comic in like 20y...

[@u2ez99]

One theory I see around is that Blue Beetle and Aquaman 2 will be treated like Ant-Man and The Wasp, it happens but before the snap happened

[@Spongebrain97]

It is pretty interesting to me how they'll introduce Damian Wayne as the first movie Robin in over 20 years before Dick Grayson. Im sure he'll also be featured in the film as Nightwing so we'll see how this turns out

[@danielnduoma3843]

Yeah, I think it'd be similar to the DCAMU where we saw Damian first in Son of Batman and Dick was alright Nightwing

[@CatCubed]

God, I hope we get an adaptation of when Dick took up the mantle of Batman and chose Damian as his Robin. They have such a great chemistry in the comics that could translate well into a movie.

[@dm_dude]

But then we have to think who of the Batfamily will be in the movie. They will have to cut corners. They won’t put 4 previous Robins into the movie. 3 if Jason is dead. Not to speak about Orphan, Batgirl and Batwoman.

[@jonasquinn7977]

I do feel like skipping straight to Damian means missing out on some of the most iconic Batman moments and characters It’s easy to have Dick and Barbara in it but are they also going to have room for Tim, Cass or Stephanie? Are they going to do Red Hood and if so how?

[@CatCubed]

@@jonasquinn7977 Maybe they'll redo the order of Robins and Damian will actually be the first one or one of the first Robins. Have the movie end in a way where Damian won't continue as a Robin and later introduce Jason, who Batman adopts because he misses working with his actual son.

[@noveldefender9815]

Brave and the Bold I'm most excited for! Just because Bat-Dad is the best version of Batman for me. When he finally understands his role, morals, has friends he can depend on, is wiser, and experienced life on the brighter side. (Thanks to Alfred and Clark). The real excitement though are the four Robins we will potentially see!

[@Narutoanime16g]

I’m happy they finally have a plan & James really seems to be passionate about it so I’m hyped & finally we’re getting green lantern content !

[@crablord7934]

I like that Gunn is hinting at letting filmmakers who like the characters and have a vision for them complete their vision and not just get in and complete a film based on a formula. That's risky but also when the best stories are told, when creatives gain most control.

[@ImperiousJordan]

I’m quite intrigued for Brave And The Bold, Swamp Thing, And Lanterns.

[@mr.moviemafia]

It’s a good sign that Gunn makes such a point to highlight the comic book authors themselves, they tend to get shafted and only get relegated to a premiere invite. He did it with John Ostrander for TSS and I’m happy to hear him mention other ones here too

[@barcodebear]

Hearing James talk about his decade long plan made me super excited :) glad to see the DC universe is getting the love and care it has deserved for years. I was always a DC fanboy as a kid, growing up on the cartoons mostly. However this shifted to Marvel due to a lack of great content that held continuity in the DC universe. The future is bright :) Looking forward to this.

[@retro_zz9738]

i think lanterns show is going to introduce us to whoever is the big bad guy of chapter 1 like Darkside or Brainiac

[@Destinedhellfire]

I think there is confusion on Aquaman and Blue Beetle, but I think what was actually meant was similar to how Antman and The Wasp, Hawkeye ep. 5, Captain Marvel, etc. were handled It's still of the DCEU, those two movies take place around or before events of The Flash reset everything, and moving forward it is a totally clean slate.

[@SpideyMike2023]

Cool way to think about this universe. It’s like a mix of Insomniac’s Spider-Man, Insomniac’s Wolverine, and Camoflaj’s Iron Man VR (which is, btw, also connected, and that you should also totally check out on KZbin) with the interconnectivity, the MCU with both the “Phase/Chapter” system for each set of films and the the choice of which characters they use for their universe (along with when they introduce them, as well), and then the DC Animated Movie Universe with which storylines they use for each film and when they use them. It’s like the perfect balance, basically!

[@mr.moviemafia]

26:21 I think James Gunn agrees with that more than anyone. He really emphasized that during his video, and of all the MCU directors, his are the movies that best accomplish the balance between perfectly fitting into a larger universe while being amazing standalone movies that don’t require a dozen movies worth of homework

[@kingofdragons7]

I'm almost excited for this...almost

[@monkilover4550]

The only thing that scares me a little bit, is the introduction of two lesser known teams. There are examples of good and then the not ideal situations. James Gunn did it well in GotG and Suicide Squad 2, but then we also saw the recent release of Eternals which was not well received (I don't remember the reception of the first Suicide Squad movie, but I don't see a lot of hype around that either).

[@Avocado11]

Using a cover from All Star Superman from Grant Morrison and Frank Quietly, using a cover from Batman & Robin by Grant Morrison and Frank Quietly, talking about Green Lantern being a cop drama like the recent series by Grant Morrison and Liam Sharpe. I wonder who James Gunn's favorite comic writer is. I haven't read an Authority stuff since they got sent into the DC continuity (I think Midnighter popped up for a bit in Grayson) so I have no idea how they fit in, the original runs from Ellis and Millar had some really great stuff.

[@alejandroangel998]

Another great thing is that S&L will continue for one or two more seasons; by the time it ends the movie will be released; just like they’re doing with The Flash series and the movie.

[@iatemyphonegaming]

I remember watching swamp thing as a kid, I was pretty young, but I really enjoyed this monstrous character!

[@mr.moviemafia]

This is a packed slate! "Booster Gold" is tailor-made for James Gunn, I think that'll be a fantastic fit! The way he and Safran describe Superman as a man with "kindness in a world that thinks that kindness as old-fashioned" (THR) is so refreshing to hear, and Supergirl being the darker counterpart to Kal-El sounds fascinating. "Lanterns" is so exciting to hear because we've been sorely lacking in GL content, and Paradise Lost seems like something lots of people will get into as well. "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" can lead to SO many fun possibilities because it means that we're finally getting a DCU with THE BAT-FAMILY, something I've always wanted to see in live-action. We've had a few great "Swamp Thing" adaptations but I bet this'll be great too, and possibly lead to JL: Dark with Constantine, Zatanna, Deadman and co. down the line. Creature Commandos and The Authority are teams I know nothing about, but I didn't know anything about the Guardians of the Galaxy either and I think those are some of the best comic books movies ever made (part 2 especially), so I'm open to it. It's the "Waller" show that confuses me the most, because it's the thing that's the most overtly connected to the old "DCEU", making me question it canonicity in the new continuity. Overall though, this is a great slate (assuming they stick to it) and I can't wait to see these characters come to life!

[@anonymes2884]

Perhaps i'm being cynical but 'Peacemaker' (and/or spin-offs) surviving the reset isn't surprising to me given that it features Gunn's wife. This may or may not be an indication of how seriously to take his "storytelling is everything" claim. Time will tell.

[@stryker-4733]

I feel the best thing that he ever said with this announcement is when he named it DC elseworld which I think is very good to say and this brand so basically they can have as many of the new Batman movies and the Joker films and they don't have to be connected because it's a different universe DC elseworlds is their version of Marvel's Multiverse which I think is a very good concept

I know those stories have been done a lot, but not on the Live Action big screen.

They said Brave and the Bold will establish the Bat family so I have to believe it will feature Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon at least, already as Nightwing and Batgirl. So we could still get some of those stories afterwards

[@xenfast130]

The game part was definitely the most interesting to me. If they actually have games that are their own thing rather than adaptions and are canon to the wider universe with those characters occasionally showing up in other films or shows, that'd be really cool and unique. If that actually succeeds, I'd like to see Marvel eventually try something like that too. Also, I just really hope we get Orphan/Batgirl (Cassandra Cain) eventually. She's legitimately my favorite member of the Bat Family aside from Batman himself, so I would love to see her done justice in live action.

[@aron8268]

I can see aidan gallagher playing damian through his performance as five in umbrella academy. I think he plays the bloodthirsty but charismatic role very well and he's been very publi in his desires to play the role so I hope Gunn makes it happen. The only concern is that he might be too old.

[@anonymes2884]

He'll be too old by the time it comes around - the Superman movie is _planned_ for summer 2025 and the Batman movie followed that in the running order. Gallagher is 19 now and will be in his early 20s by then. Even given Hollywood "kid casting" rules that's _way_ too old to play a pre-pubescent boy. Unless they _substantially_ age up Damien - who's 10 at the start of Morrison's run - which for me loses a lot of the appeal of him as Robin.

The comic (and hopefully the movie) takes a more careful look at how it would affect someone, having everyone and everything you ever knew destroyed, and needing to start over on a home not your own. It's definitely a different kind of refugee allegory than Superman's, but I would argue it's a little more compelling

As a marvel fan am soo fukin happy that were getting finally a structured universe as i love dc characters just the films suck. So hyped to hopefully enjoy both. Finally

[@Grimwolf18]

It would be cool to see gunn announce a wildcat and spectre projects

[@dresdenwarlock7978]

I'm excited for it all but I'm also fairly meh on most of it but THE LANTERNS gave me CHILLS. Can. Not. WAIT for Lanterns.

[@anonymes2884]

Same. Mostly "meh" with some "Huh, interesting" and one or two "Yep, definitely wanna see".

[@ejhida2410]

Excited for some, not for others. I just honestly still don't understand the Cavill of it all. When it comes to Doom Patrol and Titans Gunn says "oh that was decided before us" yet with Cavill, it was decided previously that he was going to continue as Superman. So he talks out of both sides. And if Batman will have Damian, then he needs to be slightly older right? So older Batman, but getting rid of the perfectly aged Cavill to match with that Batman? Plus saying possibly keeping Momoa, Gadot etc? But not Cavill. Just seems like he's the one who got the worst end of it. But really excited for Swamp Thing, Lanterns etc.

Iam so hyped for all of this! Edit: except for Flash (I hope he gets a recast)

[@isaiah6912]

Just because what the actor does in their personal life is bad doesn't mean the film itself will be. As a major flash fan I'm very excited to see it. Even if Ezra is cuckoo for coco puffs

[@bendekbotond4707]

@@isaiah6912 oh absolutely! Iam also a huge fan of the character, but the actor doesn't seem like a good fit in the long run imo.

[@drewwar9344]

@Isaiah all the bad shit aside he not a good flash he doesn't inbody the character of berry but the CW flash (grant) was way better but still not great

[@ElleKayGee]

@@TheReDeeMeR1988it’s the business of the people Ezra harassed and the Justice system.

Hey Siri, set a reminder for July, 11 2025, Superman: Legacy

[@NickTemperistic]

It's awesome to see how many things he's got in the works and everything looks super cool. Let's see if he can execute.

[@seanaugust]

I've loved Booster Gold for a long time. His appearances in the animated stuff has always been fun, but I hated both live action versions of him so far. I really want to be hopeful for whatever they have planned here. Also really hoping to see some Red and Blue Lanterns show up with that GL show.

[@Patrick76399]

Does it really matter if certain actors are no longer playing their characters…we all know they could jump back in at any point because of one word- multiverse.

[@ethanmagadan1575]

24:24 i imagine that what it might (or most likely what DC is implying) is that, that show or movie (paradise lost) takes place before this new wonder woman

[@jimideth]

Still sad about the batgirl movie. Hopefully they can still use the footage to fit the new story

[@BrowneePointz]

I just hope Swamp Thing opens the door for Zatanna, Constantine and Deadman with the Dark Mystical side of the DCU
