Discovery’s CEO, said that James Gunn‘s “Superman: Legacy” will start filming next week. * * * Zaslav sounded optimistic when delivering the “Superman” news, saying, “Bottom line, the studio has really been underperforming — including at the end of the year where we had some real struggle — but we’re very optimistic about this year, and it has given us the chance to have a lot of upside in the next two years.” Gunnar Wiedenfels, Warner Bros. Discovery’s CFO, was also frank on the call about last year’s soft superhero offerings. “On the film side, obviously this is going to continue to be a hit-driven business,” he said. “Just last year was a great example, with the greatest success in the film studio’s history, and some real challenges across the industry on the on the superhero side.” Wiedenfels also specifically noted that two of the company’s December offerings — “The Color Purple” and the superhero sequel “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” — weren’t great performers.

tv echo March 2 Share March 2 (edited) Superman: Legacy is now just called Superman... James Gunn’s Superman Movie Starts Production BY: Tim Beedle February 29, 2024 https://www.dc.com/blog/2024/02/29/james-gunn-s-superman-movie-starts-production Quote Leap Day only happens once every four years. The start of a new DC Universe? That comes around much, MUCH less often than that. Today we were treated to both of these events as DC Studios Co-CEO James Gunn officially announced the start of principal photography on his upcoming Superman movie along with a new, simpler title—Superman. Gunn also gave us our first partial look at Superman’s suit, giving us a snowy glimpse at the distinct new glyph for DC’s latest Man of Steel. Superman (which was previously titled Superman: Legacy) is both written and directed by Gunn and is set to be the first feature film in a highly anticipated new shared DC Universe, which Gunn and his fellow Co-CEO Peter Safran have been crafting since they were tapped to jointly head the newly created DC Studios in late 2022. Starring David Corenswet (Pearl, The Politician) as the Man of Steel, Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult (The Great) as Lex Luthor (who was recently spotted with a shaved head), Superman also features an impressive supporting cast that includes Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, María Gabriela De Faría as the Engineer, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher and Terence Rosemore as Otis.

Affogato March 6 Share March 6 On 7/26/2023 at 12:27 PM, millennium said: IMO, the "Crisis" was a terrible idea from its conception. It grew out of a corporate marketing strategy rather than creativity. The overall effect was a lot of noise and what little story it advanced was convoluted and required too much work to understand. And this is the opinion of someone who's been reading DC comics since the early 1970s -- God help the casual movie-goer. I wish they would just let it go and move on. But they can't. Because they have nothing else. I agree about ‘Crisis’. Link to comment
millennium March 7 Share March 7 (edited) I haven't visited this thread since August. After catching up, looking at all the linked articles, I saw not one thing that stirs my interest. It's like these people at DC ruined everything -- they trashed The Flash, they didn't do right by Henry Cavill, they misled Gal Gadot and the fans -- and most egregious of all they foisted Ezra Miller on the movie-going public despite all his wrongdoing. And now they're trying to razzle-dazzle everybody into trusting them again. I hope all of these projects bomb. I do have one question, though: Otis and Eve Teschmacher are purely movie creations, are they not? Or did they appear anywhere in the comics canon prior to the 1980s Superman movie? The Luthor-Miss Tessmacher-Otis trio really dumbed down the movie. Valerine Perrine was nice to look at but that's all. I guess Ned Beatty was eager to land a role that afforded him more dignity than Deliverance, but I'm not sure playing a fucking idiot who goes around saying "Yessir, Mr. Loo-thor" was the best way to do that.

It still holds the record for shortest amount of screentime for a supporting actor nominee (about 6 minutes).

While the films have their issues, I would argue the Donner films gave us the most accurate live-action portrayal of Superman to date. Christopher Reeves' Superman/Clark Kent portrays him in a way that is both tough but also kind and earnest. The single biggest disservice DC and Snyder have done to Superman is to try to make him dark and gritty. Superman is not dark and gritty. He's a symbol of hope. I hope Gunn takes a lesson from Marvel and Chris Evans Steve Rogers/Captain America on how to do a big earnest boy scout right. I see Captain America as the Marvel version of Superman; big kind tough men fighting for "truth justice and the American way." Marvel found a way to make him relevant to current day, while DC just made him Batman, because the Dark Knight was so well received, not considering they are different characters. 1 5 Link to comment

I agree but my point wasn't against the Donner films so much as it was against the inability to move on from them. In the fandom but especially with filmmakers. Smallville, Superman Returns, and even Man of Steel to a certain extent have had this problem. If you're going to adapt Superman, then do it your own way.

Trini May 8 Share May 8 So the costume; still need to get a better look, but it's got all the elements of a Superman costume; I hear some are fussing about the collar, but that's not a dealbreaker for me. I am a bit concerned that it doesn't seem to fit well and isn't form-fitting. Pose is interesting, because I don't think we've ever seen Superman actually put on the costume -- I know it's just the boots, but still. And he's got the spit curl! I have no idea about what's going on in the back. 1 Link to comment

millennium May 24 Share May 24 (edited) Quote The Brave and the Bold is one of several movie projects announced by DC Studios co-CEO and co-president James Gunn earlier this year. The film will take cues from the 2006 Batman story arc, "Batman and Son," with Gunn saying, "This [film] is the introduction of the DCU Batman. Of Bruce Wayne and also introduces our favorite Robin, Damian Wayne, who is a little son of a bitch." No casting news for The Brave and the Bold has been announced, though Guardians of the Galaxy franchise star Karen Gillan expressed interest in playing Poison Ivy in the DCU. https://www.cbr.com/the-flash-andy-muschietti-batman-dcu/ As a lifelong Batman fan, why would I want to see this? IMO, Damian Wayne is the worst thing to happen to the Batman mythos, worse even than Harley Quinn. What makes Gunn believe people want a Robin who is "a little son of a bitch?" Seems utterly tone deaf. Either that or it's just a big fuck-you to people like me. As far as the general public goes, it's etched into peoples' minds that Dick Grayson is Robin. Not everybody follows comic books. Most people don't know about the uninteresting parade of Dick Grayson surrogates foisted on us by DC over the years. Probably even fewer have heard of the Bat-bastard Damian Wayne. So far, the "DCU Batman" sounds like a suck-fest. On another note, I think Karen Gillan is greatly overrated.

( The one exception was Brenton Thwaites' Robin/Nightwing in Titans.) My favorite Batman was during the 1970s Denny O'Neil/Neal Adams/Jim Aparo, et al. era, when Robin went off to New Carthage to do his own thing, freeing up Batman to return to solo adventures. However, I think more people than you suspect would know that Bruce Wayne's youthful ward is Dick Grayson, and that Dick Grayson is Robin, in large part thanks to the 1966 television series.

Robin is very popular even if his civilian identity doesn't carry the quite the same recognition as Bruce Wayne or Clark Kent.

In fact, among the DC crew he's probably fourth when it comes to name recognition behind Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. Link to comment

DC, I’ve done ‘Suicide Squad,’ but now they’re kind of overhauling it, and it’s new ever since my brother took over as head of the studio,” he explained. “It’s sort of been a new process for them. So it would be, it’s really kind of true, like trying to compare apples and oranges.” * * * “Underneath it all, working with my brother is more similar than it is different to other things,” he said. “So the fact that I was working with James in Marvel and James in DC makes it actually — there’s a lot more similarities in terms of process.” Sean Gunn is next set to appear in both “Creature Commandos” and “Superman” next year.
