James Gunn will not play the game in the studio: “I would like to stop” if DC becomes an assembly line

During a recent press event that updates fans and media on the next films of DC Studios films and television projects, the DC Studios copy James Gunn He clarified that if things turn into a cinema of a assembly line, it is out.

“I would have stopped,” Gunn said, “I’m serious! I’m not going to do it if I don’t think we’re doing good things that are fine, it works.”

Of course, he followed to clarify that you don’t throw the towel soon, saying: “I’m not saying that I will stop, I’m not damaging DC”. His leadership in DC does not only concern the mediocre content for the good, which is what Marvel is doing now.

Peter Safran added: “We are very deliberated in our production. We are not trying to make five films per year and five series. We are really focused on telling great versions of the stories we want to tell and we do not have a pressure on us [WBD CEO] David [Zaslav] Or anyone else to offer more. “

Gunn has vowel to avoid the worst habits of the sector, in particular the tendency to hurry up films in production before they are ready. “Too often he saw films without third parties going on in the pipeline of a study”, and it is not something that he intends to let it happen under his watch.

The conversation also turned to the political climate and if Gunn and Safran worry about the external pressures that influence their narrative. Gunn, who faced a repercussions years ago for controversial tweets that led to his shooting temporarily from Marvel, rejected the idea that the external factors deceive his creative decisions.

He explained: “I know what you are saying, but I was out to do Superman And working on stories for three years and I just try to tell the best stories I can. That’s all that interests me. I read the news and things a lot, it’s not on the internet. “

And he doesn’t even let someone tell him how to model his films. “It doesn’t matter who is telling me who I should put in my movie for any reason, I don’t give a damn. I have always liked to make the best story possible with the best possible characters. “

Safran echoed to this, underlining that the goal of DC Studios is simple: “We want to make films for a diversified audience”.

For Gunn and Safran, attention is focused on a strong narrative, not on the studio or political pressure. If this changes, Gunn has already clarified … he won’t stay around to see him happen.

I really hope Gunn can do it because I have only liked to see him produce a lot of fantastic films and series DC. I hope you find it that I inspire Marvel to do better.
