James Gunn makes fun of his “follow-up” film by Superman and suggests a new mysterious DCU series

James Gunn has prepared some major projects for the future of the DCU and while Superman Continue to fly at the top of the box office, the director is already making fun of what will come later.

In a recent conversation with Chris Hardwick, Gunn revealed that his next film is a “follow-up” for Superman, even if he is strictly maintaining the details.

“I can say that probably the next film we will make is Superman’s follow-up, on which I don’t want to get too detail, but as is what is probably the next film we are making.”

Gunn added:

“Well, I hope we are doing [The Batman Part 2] before then, and then I think it is [the Superman follow-up]. And then we have another television program, which nobody knows, that it is going later. “

That mysterious TV series is particularly intriguing. Projects like Gold booster, WallerAND Paradise has lost Do not seem ready to shoot early, so it looks like a title completely without notice. A new DCU show slipped on the blackboard without anyone noticing it?

As for the Superman Follow-up, Gunn previously dropped another clue, saying:

“It is within the group of characters that we have already met, and Superman is an important element. Therefore, it is what I will say, but like that film, that treatment is made.”

Many fans are assuming that this could be an Superman/Supergirl team film, something that Warner Bros. Discovery has already mentioned Falls in the “super-family” umbrella. If true, this suggests that Gunn feels quite sure of how Supergirl will perform when it arrives in cinemas next summer.

This was also made fun of in a private video behind the scenes called Adventures in the creation of SupermanWhich briefly showing off Gunn’s Rozzati storyboards showing Superman, Supergirl and Krypto flying together.

Below them there was a panel with a calm head covered with knots similar to light bulb, a not so thin teasing that longtime fans will recognize as Brainiac.

There are also some chatter among the fans that this could be something bold as a Justice League -style team or “Gang Gang”. It would be a surprising swing, especially with Gunn who has already closed the rumors about the most beautiful film of a world of Superman and Batman of a world.

But a “super-family” film could be positioned as the other great DCU release of 2027.

Other DC projects such as The brave and the bold AND Wonder Woman They are still in the development phase, while Supergirl will have to face hard competition at the summer box office. There is also Clay On the horizon, but with its atmosphere focused on horror and minor visibility, Gunn could put its chips on Superman’s follow-up to be the next great victory of DC Studios.

For now, Superman It continues to impress at the national box office and is about to climb $ 600 million globally, even if international numbers have not combined the same energy enough.
