Before this article, let’s take a look at what James Gunn himself announced about DC’s future plans:
Gunn himself emphasized on Twitter that this is only part of the plan.
As the Co-CEO of DC Studios, Gunn announced the first batch of planning projects for DCU. The following projects are named DCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters.
Movie 'Superman: Legacy': July 11, 2025 - The story will focus on Superman's balance between his Kryptonian identity and his upbringing on Earth.
Movie Matt Reeves' The Batman sequel: October 3, 2025 - Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson return for the sequel.
Movie 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow'.
Movie 'Batman: The Brave and the Bold': Batman Movie Spotlighting Bruce Wayne and his son Damian Wayne.
Live-action series 'Paradise Lost': a political conspiracy drama focusing on Paradise Island, timeline before the movie Wonder Woman.
Live-action series 'Booster Gold': "The story of a loser from the future who uses technology to return to the present to become a superhero".
Booster Gold might be very related with ‘Blue Beetle’ (2023), because in the DCU, Booster Gold is frequently partnered with Blue Beetle, they become best friends quickly. Anyway, let’s pray for ‘Blue Beetle’ with good box-office first, so we can see some DC bromance in theater.
Suddenly, the movie ‘Blue Beetle’ and live-action series 'Booster Gold' became my personal favorite on the new DC slate chapter one.
Animated series 'Creature Commandos': James Gunn himself wrote the script.
Live-action series 'Waller': Viola Davis returns to star.
Live-action series 'Lanterns': Hal Jordan teams up with John Stewart.
Movie 'The Authority': Apollo and Midnighter. This franchise seems like a new one, Gunn said he brought The Authority to DC. I just can’t figure out why he doesn’t make other popular DC superheroes such as Nightwing, Green Arrow, Zatanna, etc.
Horror movie 'Swamp Thing': The final act of the first chapter of the DCU.
Many unfamiliar franchises, I wonder if James Gunn can turn DC back into the superhero franchise that fans all over the world are looking forward to, I hope he can make DC great again. At the same time, we also send our best wishes to Henry Cavill and Gal Gadot, including Brandon Routh, you will always be Superman and Wonder Woman in our hearts, and we are looking forward to future DC colleagues who will miss you forever!
