James Gunn opens up the possibility of a Marvel-DC crossover

When James Gunn was fired from Marvel for controversial tweets, Disney made a huge mistake that his competition, Warner and DC took advantage of. The director not only had the support of his cast, who flatly refused to continue with their characters if it was not under Gunn’s mandate, but also took advantage of the free time to go to the competition and direct a reboot of ‘Suicide Squad ‘ who resurrected the DC baddie crew. It didn’t take long for Disney to epically backtrack and bring him back for ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’, but the relationship was no longer the same. This return was little more than to put things in order, put an end to the original Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy with the signature of its original author. If there is something else afterwards, it will be something else and, supposedly, with a new leading group (at least in part).

James Gunn will put an end to his Marvel stage with the premiere of ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ on May 4, 2023. Then he will focus on that position that he most likely would not have if it had not been for the Marvelite fever of political correctness, taking charge of directing a new DC universe that rivals an MCU that more and more signs of weakness are seen. Gunn, for now, has dedicated himself to making a clean slate. Henry Cavill said goodbye to Superman, Patty Jenkins (and predictably Gal Gadot) to Wonder Woman, Ben Afflec said goodbye to Batman… And no, the return of Zack Snyder is also, right now, impossible. He even just pissed off everyone by ensuring that he does not contemplate the arrival of Poison Ivy so demanded by fans. We’ll see how James Gunn fares when his DCU takes shape, but he has just opened up a possibility that only someone like him can afford, the union of the two worlds, Marvel and DC, in a movie that would break all records. . speaking for Empire MagazineGunn dropped it:

I’m sure that’s more likely now that I’m in charge in DC. Who knows? However, that is many years away. I think we have to establish what we’re doing in DC first. I’d be lying if I said we haven’t discussed it. But all the discussions have been very, very light and fun.

For now, with many DC projects in the air, and with ‘Joker 2’ and ‘The Batman 2’ playing in a separate league, the next thing we expect from the DC Universe is ‘Flash’, the latest product of the closed universe that Snyder started. , and ‘Blue Beetle’, which could begin to give us the first clues to Gunn’s new direction for DC. The first will hit theaters on June 16, 2023 while the second will do so on August 18. Let’s remember that on March 17, ‘Shazam! The fury of the gods’.
