This is awesome news. James Gunn should bring all of that amazing intergalactic narrative to a Green Lantern Corps movie franchise. Can you imagine Blackest Night on the big screen? Epic.
We gotta get a James Gunn directed Lobo movie, that is just too perfect of a match to not happen, I’m so happy to hear this because after what he did with Suicide Squad and (To a lesser extent) Peacemaker I’ve really been dying to know if James Gunn was gonna do more DC projects, so to hear that he’s becoming one of the heads of DC is awesome
Honestly, not been this excited about the DC universe since Man of Steel. I want to know what they’re planning so bad. I’m happy that they announced their Superman film with Henry Cavill - so wondering what the kind of tone they’ll be aiming for but that should give us a good idea.
Feige is a producer who has an overall plan - he oversees other producers and film makers so they don’t go too much one way or the other. Gunn is a great film maker but still needs someone to reign him in - as most film makers.
As a James Gunn fan…I think Peter Safrin is a good teammate for him as well. I’m very excited about this. Gunn just gets it when it comes to the comic book film/tv content. DC Studios is headed in a great direction. I love it.
It appears that they can work really well together as Safran produced Suicide Squad and Peacemaker. Just based off those two properties it seems like Safran has no issues letting Gunn do his thing creatively and just focusing and ensuring production is smooth. I hope they continue to knock it out of the park.
in regards to less james gunn for Marvel, I was under the impression he was done with the MCU after GOTG v3. as to him taking over the DCEU, this could be good, wonder if we'll seeing same space based stuff in the DCEU.
Just what I said months ago, WB needed to make a committee of 2-3 people to run out DCU, I really love that Feige can do it alone, its a whole lot of work, but really glad they're in the right direction.
+Sarutobi A.F.: The question does Kevin Feige (who I consider to be a mind bully) even know how to run a corporate business? Has he been in those so-called corporate/stockholders meeting's to determine what works or not?
@@sarutobia.f74 An idea is like a theory but to apply an idea/theory in real life is different. You have to consider a marketing plan, that's one thing keeps business alive and that costs millions because you have to hire the best marketing specialist person.
What I'm most excited about is that this most likely means the end of all those stupid rules that was holding back DC TV shows. So we could potentially see a live action Batman on TV again.
@@Homelander___ LMFAOOOOOO so he’s directing every future movie coming out ? He just said he’s getting great directors on board to tell their stories how they want. Best way to see directors like Ayer and Snyder come back
One of the most absurd mistakes Disney has made (among many) would’ve been to fire James Gunn over comments he made 10,000 years ago - Marvel’s loss is DC’s gain.
YES, FINALLY DC STUDIOS, this is such a great news, especially after a decade of WB’s old regime’s massive incompetence mess, such a huge breath of fresh air!!!
This is great news! Gunn will do well here and they've given him a partner who he's worked with for years and balances him out. Love this news and looking forward to the truly NEW ERA to begin
People are hating on Zaslav. But, Zaslav locked down Matt Reeves and James Gunn! What better choice could they have made? How can anyone hate on this new management?
James Gunn should make a MasterClass in how to get ahead in your career Step 1: Being cancelled on Twitter Step 2: Getting fired by Disney Step 3: ??? Step 4: Head of major Hollywood Studio
To be fair to Alan Horn, within the policies and guidelines of Disney with a focus on family-friendly entertainment, he probably did what he thought was expected from him by firing Gunn. He just did it wrong. At WB, they've made it clear that their target market is adults, and they have no problem being slightly cringy. Horn is a businessman - he couldn't care less about moral values but take policies very seriously.
Yea Gunn is fine his take on dc isn’t my favorite but he does know how to get shit done like look at all the stuff the dudes doing and he does have the basic understanding of the characters which is nice 😂 but also seems to have this like crazy knowledge of obscure characters while also doing crazy research into stuff which I like. I do think having Gunn there creates some sort of security feeling since the whole batgirl situation and all the cancellations on the platform and removal of stuff to save money and I’m guessing he’ll act as some sort of creative magnet for directors and writers coz he is well liked in Hollywood. I probably would’ve personally swapped the safran out for that other dude Dan Lin since he also seem to know his DC shit
I'm really looking forward to see what James Gunn is going to do with the entire DC universe. At this point it seemed like Aquaman 2 and The Flash were possible endpoints for this set of heroes and actors but after The Suicide Squad, Peacemaker and Black Adam we are still going to be in this universe started by Man of Steel but it is going to be different. Outside of Peacemaker season 2 I am curious to see what movies Gunn will direct and what characters he will introduce. Kind feels like Shazam! and The Suicide Squad can be considered the new starting points for this universe and kinda just acknowledging that similar stuff that happened in all the other movies technically happened but that will all be in the past now.
Let's hope...that this will spring out a DC/Marvel cross over. Gunn and Feige are good buds. I hope it happens. Pretty small percentage of it happening...but you never know.
What you absolutly have to do first before doing fucking around with smaller characters is to definitivly establish the core of the DCU within this new era. The Trinity and the Justice League. Once this is done you can do more experimental stuff once the foundation has been laid. Doing a for example a Batman Beyond without a solid Batman that can play into such a movie would be a big mistake.
IMO, James Gunn’s wacky humour doesn’t fit well with Superman. There have been rumours regarding JJ Abrams making a Superman movie, which might be possible since his dear friend, Matt Reeves, made The Batman.
DC has to set up justice league with flash Shazam Super Man Aquaman and black Adam Wonder Woman with a few new characters do justice league 2 and 3 then do justice league Doom with black Adam
Honestly I wanna know what gunns vision is man what’s his plans for The justice league because he’s gotta wanna do his own one now he can I have absolutely nothing negative to say about Gunn being in charge wish him the best
Ever since the calls that Christopher Nolan should be the head of DC movies, I never thought that a director would or should take the job. I'd never considered pairing a director with a producer for the job.
I love James Gunn. I understand that he won't be directly directing everything. But Rob's idea that Gunn will be directing Superman... I don't think I want that.
People didn’t want Michael Keaton as Batman or Heath Ledger as The Joker. We don’t know that he is directing a new Superman film, but if he does, I’m interested in it. I’ll give it a try.
James Gunn got married this year as well. He's literally probably had the best year of his life.
Hot wife. Hot job. You are right. Best year of his life.
He's a pedo.
@@paulholloway8885 What helps is you have another person who knows how to run the business side of a corporation or whatever.
shit i was about to say this has prob been the best stretch of his life till i found out he's recently married
@@Homelander___ just like miller
I respect the hell out of James Gunn. He has a great vision for his movies. I fully trust him.
Love it. Peter is soo freaking smart and knows what he is doing paired with Gunn We are in for the ride of our lives

They should have chosen Snyder.
"Imagine an Executive that directs his own films...wouldn't that be a sight." - Achilies.
instead of making all of these unknown characters I feel like they really need to nail their main characters.
Feige is a producer who has an overall plan - he oversees other producers and film makers so they don’t go too much one way or the other. Gunn is a great film maker but still needs someone to reign him in - as most film makers.
Peacemaker was damn good. I can’t even imagine what a Superman movie could be.
Bob Paycheck. Good joke at 3:20

James Wan is the goat 🐐 this generation’s James Cameron
No he can't, he's a CO-CEO and he reports to zaslav
YES, FINALLY DC STUDIOS, this is such a great news, especially after a decade of WB’s old regime’s massive incompetence mess, such a huge breath of fresh air!!!
james gunn writing, zack snyder directing Man Of Tomorrow.
“Bob Paycheck” 😂😂😂

🤦🏽♂️
Most important thing - these 2 guys know how to get 90+ rotten tomato critics score. Zaslav is really doing great.
We’ve gotta get Lobo with Gunn directing, that would be perfect 👍🏼
Not gonna lie. This is a *huge* win for DC… *HUUUUUGGEEE*
The tide has changed. This is huge
James Gunn should direct Green Lantern
People are hating on Zaslav. But, Zaslav locked down Matt Reeves and James Gunn! What better choice could they have made? How can anyone hate on this new management?
James Gunn being fired from Disney is the best thing to ever happen for comic book fans
Dave Bautista Bane?
OMG the best Idea I've ever heard
This news makes me more confident that a Transmetropolitan series will finally be made.
Super excited for the future of DC films & the DCEU.
It's DCU now bro
Bob Paycheck 🤣🤣🤣🤣

So James Gunn gonna be doing press promotion for Marvel's GOTG3 while being Co Chairman/CEO of DC Studios
Hopefully this finally means a nightwing film
I Want a Batman Beyond Movie 😭
Worries? Hell no! Let’s fucking go!!!!
I hope the make a good Green Lantern Corps movie.

I'm so curious to see who directs the next Superman movie.
Lobo and The New Gods of Genesis together, going on space adventures. That could be the DC version of Guardians
lol Bob Paycheck. Love it. New nickname
Finally they thinking smart. Always went with James Gunn.
We are definitely getting Booster Gold and Power Girl with James Gunn
A James Gunn booster gold, Ted kord blue beetle, Mr miracle, and animal man and doom patrol would all be immaculate
Does this mean Dave Bastista will be the new Bane!!!?
Hopefully.
Hahaha that will obnoxious kind of Bane. 😂🤣😂
Let's hope...that this will spring out a DC/Marvel cross over. Gunn and Feige are good buds. I hope it happens. Pretty small percentage of it happening...but you never know.
Thank god at least we are getting guardians of galaxy 3 from him
I think they already hinted at the James gunn hiring with the Harley Quinn tv show cameo.
Id really like to see James Gunn take a crack at Superman, theres so many weird sci fi elements in the superman comics that hed handle really well

When was there ever going to be more James Gunnat Marvel?
He's been pretty clear that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 would be his swan sang at the MCU.
Hell yes, please give us Batman Beyond and Lobo!
I can see Ben Affleck coming back to star and direct his Batman movie with death stroke.
Booooooo . We just had the Batman . Ben finish thanks Zack Incompetent understanding of dc
15:38 - Just the best haha
Bob “paycheck” just made my day thanks john
Can't wait to see when Gunn becomes the better Feige! 🤣
I can only see Jason Momoa as *Lobo*
batman beyond with michael keaton
I'm excited about the "Guardians of the Galaxy" holiday special that James Gunn is doing.
I believe it’s cool that James Gunn will be taking over,now finally I can see a marvel vs dc film,now I can see dc pumping up the stuff dc puts out
My existence will officially peak when I hear a nightwing movie is announced with Dylan O’Brien. Unless he’s cast as the new Barry first😉
I wish Gunn all the success at DC with all the great content he’s made these last 8-9 years
I love the Boston legal love 😂
"James Gun is the new co-head of DC"
Grace Randolph: "NOoooooo"
Aa long as he can get good directors for the movies he doesn't direct I think he'll be ok. I'm cautiously optimistic
Same here and good stories.
If they do an announcement of their next 4 years marvel style I'm going to explode.
Same here
I hope he makes a Larfleez movie.
A Terry McGinnis story would be fucking awesome
If James Gunn directs superman, perhaps his movie will bring back lex luthor and introduce Lobo. I think James Gunn will have a ball with Lobo.
IMO, James Gunn’s wacky humour doesn’t fit well with Superman. There have been rumours regarding JJ Abrams making a Superman movie, which might be possible since his dear friend, Matt Reeves, made The Batman.
@@RSG_TheMonster I would be down with seeing that movie.
DC has to set up justice league with flash Shazam Super Man Aquaman and black Adam Wonder Woman with a few new characters do justice league 2 and 3 then do justice league Doom with black Adam

Honestly I wanna know what gunns vision is man what’s his plans for The justice league because he’s gotta wanna do his own one now he can I have absolutely nothing negative to say about Gunn being in charge wish him the best
Batman Beyond!
@@werdle92 we all would. Even John
Now I'm excited
Is it me or Zaslav seems to be doing really good job so far? No obvious misses, as far as I see it.
If you're an animation fan I think you'd disagree with this.
@@tylerensminger true, I forgot about that.
Its fantastic
Gunn was already done with Marvel after GOG 3.
Reresection Man was an interesting character from the 90s too. As well as the Hitman!
James Gunn isn’t gonna direct Superman, he’s already said he doesn’t wanna do that kind of project
Ever since the calls that Christopher Nolan should be the head of DC movies, I never thought that a director would or should take the job. I'd never considered pairing a director with a producer for the job.
What if he get the Russo brothers to take on a project? That would be awesome.
I recently bought a bunch of DC stock when it was at it's lowest thinking it'll eventually bounce back. Feeling pretty good about that gamble now.
It would be called the DCU now.
Is Guardians 3 done? I mean if they start Nov 1st..what happens if Guardians 3 isn't done yet?
@@Paul-se4wc thanks.
Avengers vs Justice League in 5…4…

Finally an interesting ad in John's video
It would be awesome to see the different versions of Batman, like the Batman who laughs. James Gunn will knock it out of the park.
Safran is also Gunn's manager
