As the day inches closer when his version of the DC Universe will finally launch to fans worldwide, the superhero franchise’s Studios’ co-ceo James Gunn seems to be doing everything in his power to keep fans’ interest piqued in his upcoming Superman movie without revealing too much. That being said, he even celebrated ‘Superman Day’ recently, wishing his fans the same!

But as much as he has succeeded in keeping the fans of the superhero universe from all across the globe on their toes through his super-frequent teasing and updates on everything, he still seems to be lagging. This comes after a majority of the fan reaction to his wishes on this day is ostensibly demanding the very thing that he just won’t give us: The final reveal of Kal-El’s superhero suit.

Zack Snyder built this gritty realistic superhero world for his version of Dceu. Starting with Man of Steel in 2013, the Watchmen director helmed three successful movies while planning several other dropped projects. One common criticism he received for Batman v Superman was that he did not properly flesh out solo superhero stories before going for an ensemble film. However, Snyder clarified why he chose to do the team-up film.

Snyder’s Batman v. Superman was largely panned by the critics. Despite receiving a dream opening at the box office, the film saw a historical drop in its second week. However, the film’s quality is still debated among fans, with Snyder cultists absolutely loving the film.

Zack Snyder is almost synonymous with DC Universe, with the legacy of his Snyderverse titles, including Man of Steel. But the director might be in talks for his possible association with DC rival Marvel Studios.

Snyder has certainly elevated the essence of DC Studios before James Gunn and Peter Safran took over the DC Universe to revamp the entirety of it. Now, Snyder’s association with the company has ended, and his return to the studio is very unlikely.

It seems that not a single Gunn’s announcement related to the upcoming ‘Superman’ reboot can go without controversy. A while back, when Milly Alcock was cast as Supergirl, the director was criticized for having an all-white main cast of the movie.
Now the most recent outrage is directed toward the cast being “D-List” in nature. Everything started with the announcement that Pruitt Taylor Vince will be cast as Jonathan Kent in the upcoming reboot with Neva Howell cast as Martha Kent, Superman’s adoptive human mother.
Even though both actors are established in their own right with medium-sized roles, none of them in the past has led blockbusters. Vince will star as a series regular in the upcoming Apple TV+ series ‘Lady in the Lake,’ alongside Natalie Portman, set to release this summer. His extensive television work includes appearances in popular series such as Netflix’s ‘Stranger Things,’ Marvel’s ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,...

It appears that every announcement about James Gunn’s upcoming ‘Superman’ reboot sparks controversy. Some time ago, when Milly Alcock was cast as Supergirl, the director faced criticism for assembling an all-white main cast (despite Supergirl not being a part of main cast…)
Now, the latest uproar revolves around the perceived “D-List” nature of the cast. It all began with the announcement of Pruitt Taylor Vince as Jonathan Kent and Neva Howell as Martha Kent, Superman’s adoptive human parents, in the upcoming reboot.
Although both actors have established themselves with medium-sized roles, neither has previously headlined blockbuster films. Vince is set to star as a series regular in the upcoming Apple TV+ series ‘Lady in the Lake,’ alongside Natalie Portman, scheduled for release this summer.

It may still be a sore subject for Dceu fans, but Henry Cavill is seemingly able to joke about his run of misfortune in teasing follow-ups to his post-credits stingers. The most notorious one came from the end of Black Adam, which had gone unfulfilled when a planned sequel involving the clashing of Black Adam and Superman was scrapped after the origin film flopped and the Dceu was eventually laid to rest in favor of a universe reboot with James Gunn at the helm. Variety reports that Cavill introduced his new Guy Ritchie film, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, at a special screening when he poked fun at his bad luck.
During Cavill’s introduction, he mentioned how he had worked with Ritchie a couple of times before. He would star as the lead in his feature adaptation of the TV show The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

While Henry Cavill defined Superman for a decade, he has now moved on from the franchise and has been working on new projects. The actor was last seen in Matthew Vaughn’s spy comedy Argylle and is set to feature in the historical action comedy The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. The actor is also working on a Highlander reboot.
During the premiere of the Guy Ritchie directorial, Henry Cavill reportedly made fun of his unlucky streak as Superman. While talking about his collaborations with Ritchie, he mentioned his alleged post-credits scene in the director’s King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. He also took a dig at his appearance in Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam while doing so.

It’s no secret that Darkseid and Thanos are two of the most powerful and feared villains in the comic book universe. But with Avengers: Age of Ultron and Avengers: Infinity War’s phenomenal successes, one character in particular has emerged as a pop culture icon: The Mad Titan.
In the MCU films, Josh Brolin’s Thanos truly brought the dread, ferocity, spectacle, and shock factor when he assembled the Infinity Stones and snapped half of life away. However, the DC Universe and its heroes have also been afflicted by Darkseid. Naturally, Darkseid and Thanos have caused problems for the members of the primary superhero teams from DC (Justice League) and Marvel (Avengers) through their many battles. So who would win if Darkseid and Thanos faced off?

Henry Cavill may not be reprising his role as the Man of Steel anytime soon, but fans don’t need to burst into tears for him. The Hollywood Reporter discovered that the actor was paid a whopping $250,000 ‘each’ for his brief appearances in Black Adam and The Flash.
Yes, that’s what it is—a quarter of a million dollars for just a few minutes of screen time. Not bad for a day’s work, right? While some may feel sorry for Cavill for not getting the chance to star in James Gunn’s 2025 Superman release, it’s abundantly clear that the actor isn’t hurting for cash. Also, compared to Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot, the Immortals actor received a higher salary for his brief cameos in other DC flicks.

Joseph Quinn is joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Johnny Storm/Human Torch in the upcoming tentpole “The Fantastic Four,” starring opposite Pedro Pascal (Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby (Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman), Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Ben Grimm/The Thing) and Julia Garner (the Silver Surfer named Shalla-Bal). It’s a pivotal time for the MCU as debates over “superhero fatigue” rage on following the onslaught of 2023 comic book movie flops, which included Marvel’s own “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” and “The Marvels.”
Is Quinn worried about Marvel superhero fatigue as he gears up to shoot “The Fantastic Four” and enter the MCU? He shrugged off any concerns in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
“I think that with the story of the Fantastic Four, it feels like we want to get this right,” Quinn said about superhero fatigue concerns. “There are aspects of it that are very different to other Marvel films.

Henry Cavill nodded to his tumultuous history with post-credits scenes during a recent screening of his new Guy Ritchie-directed movie “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.” As reported by Insider, Cavill made some introductory remarks before the film and references his other Ritchie films, including his leading turn in the 2015 spy film “The Man from U.N.C.L.E” and his appearance “in a post-credits scene” for the director’s 2017 box office disappointment “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.”
“Turns out, I don’t have much luck with post-credit scenes,” Cavill then wisecracked to much audience laughter. “So, I may give up on those.”
Cavill is likely referring to how “King Arthur” did not get a sequel because it flopped at the box, but also a debacle ensued years later when he showed up as Superman in the post-credits scene of the 2022 comic book tentpole “Black Adam,” headlined by Dwayne Johnson. The moment...

CW’s Arrowverse gave rise to plenty of shows, but arguably the best among them was ‘The Flash,’ which last year concluded its ninth and final season. Grant Gustin portrayed the Scarlet Speedster for almost 10 years, and he is well known to be among the best live-action versions of the character.
Since Flash himself is one of the most popular characters in DC comics, plenty of fans have been wondering whether he will be included in the newly rebooted Gunn’s & Safran’s Dcu.
Dceu did have its Flash, portrayed by the highly scandalous Ezra Miller. The character eventually got its own movie, adapting the famous ‘Flashpoint’ storyline in which Miller’s Flash supposedly resets the timeline completely changing some vital details in his universe. The movie was met with mixed reactions, and it was one of the final flops that Dceu had.

It was an initially groan-inducing idea 20 years ago: a remake of George A. Romero‘s 1978 zombie classic Dawn of the Dead. That film was arguably the Romero’s masterpiece, a biting satire about American consumerism that still feels relevant today. But the Zack Snyder version that followed turned out to be much more worthy of the Dawn name than anyone expected from a director making his feature film debut.
More of a reimagining than a traditional remake, 2004’s Dawn of the Dead was a gorier, balls-to-the-wall action flick featuring zombies that didn’t just shamble down the post-apocalyptic street but sprinted across them (taking a page from 2002’s 28 Days Later), turning these classic monsters into a scarier and more gruesome threat than ever before. Written by James Gunn and filmed in Snyder’s gritty style, the movie is a more surface-level entertainment that strays from the themes of the more layered original.

Although a majority of the critics seemingly deemed it unworthy, the original Fantastic Four film series is still regarded as one of the best adaptations ever created. This is because even though a lot of people had issues with the plotlines, pretty much no one had any issues with the cast which included Chris Evans’ widely acclaimed fan-favorite embodiment of the Human Torch as well.
The original Fantastic Four cast from the early 2000s.
In fact, Evans’ performance as Johnny Storm so deeply influenced the viewers that even someone like Joseph Quinn, who would be continuing the character’s legacy in the upcoming reboot, couldn’t help but praise him. But while he holds him in wide regard, Quinn has also made it clear that his portrayal of Johnny wouldn’t be the same, but rather, something he creates on his own.

Superman, which is serving as Gunn's big screen kick off to his DC Studios, already features David Corenswet as Clark/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, María Gabriela de Faría...

Superman is one of those superheroes who has always gained wide momentum among fans, becoming their favorite in the least time possible and continuing to rule their hearts through the indelible marks left behind by their stories. That being said, he has also earned multiple animated and live-action adaptations over the years, including the most recent one under James Gunn.
Superman.However, while all of those other animated projects gave the feeling of being like yet another cartoon show despite their outstanding storylines, this first animated series under Gunn’s reign as the co-ceo of the DC Universe, i.e. My Adventures with Superman, gave a different vibe. This was because it had the wildest idea for its core animation: Its main theme being anime-inspired!

According to The Wrap, Pruitt Taylor-Vince has been cast as Jonathan Kent in James Gunn’s Superman. I can’t say that’s who I expected to play Clark Kent’s adoptive human father in the movie, but I’ve always been a big fan of the actor, who has appeared in everything from The X-Files to Deadwood to The Walking Dead.
Pruitt Taylor-Vince will join the long line of actors who have brought Jonathan Kent to life in movies and television, including Glenn Ford in the original Superman movie, John Schneider in Smallville, Kevin Costner in Man of Steel, and many more. As I mentioned above, Taylor-Vince might not feel like the obvious choice for the role, but he’s a true talent and I hope fans give him a chance.

Superman, the beloved Kryptonian superhero from the DC Universe, has been played by multiple actors over the years in numerous different adaptations — both good and not-so-good. And of all the talented masterminds who embodied him, the late Christopher Reeve and Henry Cavill are widely regarded as the best ones by far.
Superman in the comics.But oftentimes, Reeve’s performance is deemed even better than Cavill’s, and for reasons all too understandable. In fact, not only do fans of the late actor hold this opinion, but even the renowned Tim Daly, who voiced Clark Kent in the iconic award-winning Superman: The Animated Series, believes that Reeve’s Kal-El was “wonderful” for a reason that might not sit well with Cavill’s fans.

Fans may be anticipating James Gunn’s take on the Superman movie, but there’s another show that definitely puts a lot of twist in it, and that’s My Adventures with Superman animated series. The shonen anime-inspired project sees Clark Kent, voiced by Jack Quaid, as he juggles life as a superhero and his work at the Daily Planet.
My Adventures With Superman
Many hated the show, particularly Lois Lane’s portrayal, but executive producer Jake Wyatt thinks she’s “the Batman” in her relationship with Kent. What’s the deal with Lane, and why is everyone hating on her?
My Adventures With Superman Producers Called Lois Lane “The Batman”
In an interview with Comicsbeat, executive producers Jake Wyatt and Josie Campbell talked about Lois Lane in My Adventures with Superman. The latter claimed they pitched it as a rom-com with punching, and they also watched the ‘70s Superman film.

Tim Daly was 3 years and 15 days old when his would-be childhood hero George Reeves was found dead of an apparent suicide at age 45. The man who played Superman would go on to inspire countless other adaptations of DC characters, including Adam West’s Batman in 1966. Later, Daly himself became the Man of Steel in a legendary run of Superman: The Animated Series that began in 1996 and lasted till 2012.

The severity of James Gunn’s formative DC Universe is paramount, to say the least. The sense of purpose that has been guiding the DC Studios CEO since November 2022 has been solely focused on using Superman as the foundation for the new and improved universe. Understandably, James Gunn’s Dcu needs to find a fixture soon on which the entire universe’s model can be based, but Superman is the only IP that has to convince the audience of the rate of Dcu’s success.

The rave and unhinged obsession of people regarding their favorite film or TV show is something that is unfortunately well-documented, which can often times lead to some seriously disturbing circumstances. This time, that situation was caused by none other than haters of filmmaker Zack Snyder and his vision of the Dceu dubbed ‘The Snyderverse’.

This was not just an instance of cyber-bullying as this time, they went over the top and issued a threat that they were going to kill Ray Porter, the star who played the role of Darkseid in Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

When Guardians of the Galaxy was first announced back in 2014, many were assured this was going to be MCU’s first bomb, as the IP didn’t actually have a dedicated fanbase. On top of that, apart from Zoë Saldana, who was somewhat of a star, no one in the Guardians cast was an A-lister at the time, but as the story goes, James Gunn made it work.
Fast forward to today, the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy stands as one of the best superhero trilogies, whose final entry was lauded as the MCU’s best since Infinity War. And much like the film itself, which was one of the most emotionally heavy movies the cinematic giant had to offer, the last day on set brought Gunn to tears following Chris Pratt and Zoë Saldana’s speeches.

Chris Pratt and James Gunn are pretty good friends after having worked together in MCU’s Guardians of the Galaxy movies. They pretty much have been through thick and thin, battling the extensive negative criticism before the movie’s release to Gunn’s dismissal from the last movie following a series of resurfaced tweets.

Another thing share in common and makes them bond is their sense of humor. The result of which was the wedding speech that Gunn wrote for Pratt to read at his wedding. A hilarious monologue, it left the audience in fits of laughter and Pratt embarrassed for he was forced to acknowledge how much prettier Gunn’s wife was in comparison to his.

Get ready to taste it all over again. James Gunn took to Instagram over the weekend to confirm that Peacemaker season 2 is now filming its first episode, which he later clarified was a Saturday “pre-shoot.“

A post shared by James Gunn (@jamesgunn)
Just like the first season, James Gunn has written every episode of Peacemaker season 2, but he won’t be able to direct as many this time around as he’s in the midst of directing Superman. “Yes, I’ve written all the episodes; but, no, in the interest of getting the show out there I won’t be able to direct them all (only some),” Gunn said last month. He added that that will be “three other great directors joining me for the season.“

It looks as though director Todd Phillips has officially finished Joker: Folie a Deux, with the MPAA officially granting it an R-rating for “some strong violence, language throughout, some sexuality, and brief full nudity.” On the latter, it looks like Joker is about to show us the full monty, doesn’t it? At any rate, the R-rating isn’t a surprise, as that’s what the first film got, and I imagine a PG-13 sequel would have landed with a thud, as fans expect this to be as hardcore and uncompromising as the original.
Here’s the poster:
But, what else do we know about Joker: Folie a Deux? Plenty!

What Kevin Conroy was for Batman, Tim Daly was for Superman, who voiced the character in the ’90s Superman: The Animated Series. While the show itself isn’t as fondly remembered as Batman: The Animated Series, whose success paved the way for the show on the first hand, Daly did hit it out of the park with his performance as Clark Kent.
However, the acclaimed voice artist didn’t connect with Superman from the get-go, as it wasn’t until his later years that saw him developed a keen understanding of the character. But following the current landscape of superheroes, the Wings Star expressed his desire to get back to playing the Clark again, stressing the entertainment industry has gravitated way towards darkness.

David Corenswet is on fire. And we do mean that in its literal form, after looking at the recent sneak peeks of the absolutely magnificent transformation he has undergone, which has resulted in his jaw-dropping and head-turning physique for Superman. Not only does he look huge in the leaked images and footage, but even his physical features look identical to the Man of Steel before him.
David Corenswet in State of Affairs.
This comes after new images and footage went viral on the internet featuring everything about Corenswet’s body that he had been trying to hide for the past few months with his baggy clothes and constant cap-on-head. And the best part? Looking at all these updates, it seems like James Gunn has found the perfect replacement for Henry Cavill for his version of the DC Universe!

When James Gunn and Peter Safran assumed control of the Dceu, now known as the Dcu, it was surprising that nearly all actors playing major superheroes were released, and their projects were scrapped. Henry Cavill exited ‘The Witcher’ Season due to his commitment to an upcoming ‘Man of Steel’ sequel, only to discover the film’s cancellation.
Later, it was clarified that he departed ‘The Witcher’ production due to disagreements with the writers over the source material.
Cavill’s fans understandably expressed frustration over the news that their beloved Man of Steel wouldn’t be returning. Many regarded Cavill as one of the few successes of the Dceu. However, Gunn sought a younger actor for the upcoming Superman movie, necessitating a recast to align with the film’s focus on a younger version of the character. Additionally, having Cavill appear in two different origin movies would be confusing.

With James Gunn & Peter Safran taking over Dceu and rebranding it as Dcu, no one expected that just about all actors portraying the notable superheroes would be let go and their projects canceled.
Henry Cavill himself left the production of the upcoming ‘The Witcher’ season because he signed up for the upcoming ‘Man of Steel’ installment, only for it to be confirmed that the movie is not happening. Later it was clarified that he left the ‘The Witcher’ production because the writers continuously disrespected the source material.
Cavill’s fans were understandably angry, to say the least, that their favorite and most recent Man of Steel won’t be reprising his role. For the most part, Cavill is considered to be one of the few things that Dceu got right.

Legendary actress Sharon Stone has performed many memorable roles in classic films in her four-decade-long career. Known as a s*x symbol in her heyday, the actress has worked with acclaimed directors such as Martin Scorsese, Wes Craven, Steven Soderbergh, and more. She received an Academy Award nomination for her role in Casino.
Stone had claimed long back in 2016 that she was part of a Marvel film. At the time, she had revealed that her character’s superpowers were related to heat and that she could not divulge a lot of information due to contractual obligations. While she is yet to be seen in an MCU film, a theory states that James Gunn might have cut her role from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

Remember how the first Aquaman came out and was a colossal success? It really seemed like everything was finally on track for the character after years of jokes and abuse. Then tragedy…or well…insanity struck. The sequel was plagued with reshoots, scheduling conflicts, and an ever-changing landscape of the Dceu. Plus there’s the Amber Heard of it all, which has grown increasingly complicated. Today on DC Revisited, we’re getting into it all, as we dive into James Wan’s Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.
Before the first Aquaman had found massive success, Warner Bros was already hard at work on developing a sequel. Jason Momoa himself pitched a story to the studio, wanting to be more involved in the sequel’s development. This makes sense as Momoa really was the face of Aquaman and had shifted the perception of the character from a blonde man in tights...

James Gunn shared a helmet selfie on Instagram to announce the production of Peacemaker season 2 has now started.
James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad was excellent. Then again, he had already helmed two great Guardians Of The Galaxy films, not to mention the hilarious Super, so we knew he’d be able to juxtapose the violence and the humour well.
When it was announced (and teased at the end of The Suicide Squad) that John Cena’s Peacemaker would be getting his own spin-off TV show, fans were cautiously excited but also a little worried about how the character would translate into a longer format.
Well, Peacemaker, which debuted in 2022 was a hoot. From the wonderfully bonkers opening credits, which saw the entire cast do an extravagant dance number, to the even more bonkers narrative, the series was much better than anyone was expecting.

Ever since James Gunn took over the DC franchise, there have been some major changes that included the exit of prominent Dceu stars like Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, and Ben Affleck. In addition, the director has also taken it upon himself to bring fresh narratives and characters to the fore in what would be a completely ‘new look’ DC.

The Dcu has been slowly morphing into James Gunn’s vision, one project at a time. Although many questioned his authority as the co-ceo when it was initially announced, he has been proving himself to be worthy through his plan for the franchise. One could say that the filmmaker is being extensively deliberate with the projects he greenlights and those he doesn’t.
