THE NEW NEW DCU (James Gunn is Out! Now What?)

DC Studios has a new boss... AGAIN. Just when it seemed like James Gunn and Peter Safran were finally getting the DC Universe on track, another major shakeup has changed the future of DC Studios. Following Skydance's acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, Gunn and Safran are stepping down as co-heads of DC Studios, and former Marvel Studios executive Jeremy Latcham is taking over. So what happens to Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and the interconnected DC Universe that Gunn has spent the last four years building? In this episode of Film Talk, host Taylor Mackenzie breaks down the latest DC Studios leadership shakeup, the man replacing Gunn and Safran, and what this change could mean for the future of DC's biggest superheroes. Jeremy Latcham isn't a newcomer to superhero filmmaking. He joined Marvel Studios in 2004 and helped develop some of the movies that established the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including Iron Man, Iron Man 2, The Avengers, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Spider-Man: Homecoming. After leaving Marvel, he went on to produce films including Bad Times at the El Royale and Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. Now he's being asked to accomplish something DC has struggled with for years: build a successful, sustainable cinematic universe. But does that mean another reboot? Will James Gunn's plans remain intact? What happens to the upcoming Superman sequel, Man of Tomorrow? And could DC Studios once again change direction just as audiences are getting comfortable with its latest universe? Gunn and Safran may be leaving their executive positions, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're finished making DC movies. One thing is certain: the DC Universe is entering another new chapter.
