Just before Milly Alcock (HBO's House of the Dragon) was announced as Supergirl for DC Studios Co-CEOs James Gunn & Peter Safran's new DCU, Gunn found himself having to shut down another round of "Superman won't be a big focus of Gunn's DCU" nonsense But that was yesterday – today, we find the focus shifting[...]

Because DC Studios Co-CEO James Gunn is a notorious multi-tasker, we've been getting a steady stream of updates on the second season of Max's John Cena-starring Peacemaker – even with all of the other DCU stuff swirling around We learned that Gunn has "a way in" when it comes to making the first season work with[...]

Over the past year, DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn has been doing a great job of not just rolling out news & updates regarding Superman: Legacy but also cutting through a lot of the bullshit (pardon our gruff professionalism) out there so that can keep their scorecards updated on what's fact, what's fiction, and what's just[...]
