For anyone morbidly obsessed with the ongoing DC drama, today has been another doozy. For starters, James Gunn has once again attempted to fight back against the sea of scorn that’s threatening to drown the DC universe discourse, not to mention do his best to dispel fans’ fears. Then there’s an intriguing new development in the Henry Cavill/Dwayne Johnson scenario, following the dual downfall of Superman and Black Adam. Meanwhile, Avatar 2 fails to beat a couple of embarrassing rivals.
James Gunn declares ‘disrespectful’ fans won’t alter his plans as he answers burning DCU questions
In the wake of #FireJamesGunn trending on Twitter, the man himself has hit back at his haters, albeit in a polite and formal way, by declaring that he won’t let any “disrespectful outcry” change his plans for the refurbished DCU. What’s more, he’s vaguely put to bed all those rumors he’s going to ruthlessly recast the entire franchise, not to mention confirmed that an often overlooked 2023 movie will be releasing after all, causing fans to breathe a sigh of relief in the process. All in all, DC was right to hire him over Joker‘s Todd Phillips.
