DC fans will love the new heads of DC James Gunn and Peter Safran.
James Gunn has taken to Twitter yet again to discuss his and Peter Safran's takeover of the DCEU.
Gunn stated in a reply to a fan that he will not be recasting all of the current DCEU: "I keep seeing posts with this untrue theory. We're not recasting everyone except The Suicide Squad." He also confirmed that Blue Beetle would still be moving ahead next year.
"No one loves to be harassed or called names – but, to be frank, we’ve been through significantly worse. Disrespectful outcry will never, ever affect our actions," Gunn continued. "We were aware there would be a period of turbulence when we took this gig, & we knew we would sometimes have to make difficult & not-so-obvious choices, especially in the wake of the fractious nature of what came before us. But this means little to us in comparison to our jobs as artists & custodians in helping to create a wide & wonderful future for DC."
"One of the things Peter & I were aware of when we took the job as heads of DC Studios was a certain minority of people online that could be, well, uproarious & unkind, to say the least," Gunn tweeted(opens in new tab).
"Our choices for the DCU are based upon what we believe is best for the story & best for the DC characters who have been around for nearly 85 years. Perhaps these choices are great, perhaps not, but they are made with sincere hearts & integrity & always with the story in mind."
Gunn has received backlash for his decision to cancel Wonder Woman 3 and recast Henry Cavill as Superman.
