From Superman’s Silver Age inspiration to a more grounded Batman and the hunt for Wonder Woman’s perfect story, we cover how Gunn is shaping the next era of the DC Universe. We also highlight his approach to storytelling, the role of Krypto, and why DC is taking a different path than Marvel.

Key Takeaways:

  • Superman will be inspired by Silver Age comics, with a focus on heart and optimism.

  • Krypto, Superman’s dog, will appear and was inspired by Gunn’s own pet.

  • There will be an explanation for Clark Kent’s disguise that goes beyond just glasses.

  • Supergirl has finished principal photography; Gunn helped with the script.

  • Batman is the hardest DCU character to adapt due to oversaturation.

  • The Batman 2 (Matt Reeves’ sequel) is still in development but moving slowly.

  • Gunn promises the new Batman won’t be campy or comedic.

  • Wonder Woman is easier to adapt thanks to her untapped potential in live action.

  • Gunn is excited for the upcoming Superman movie, which releases in a month.

Quotes:

  • “All DC projects must have completed and strong screenplays before they even enter into production.”

  • “Krypto was the first thing he knew he wanted.”

  • “Batman’s his hardest nut to crack right now.”

  • “Wonder Woman is far easier to adapt because there hasn’t been enough representation for her.”
