Zach Cregger says that his gotham city script “does not really fit” in the current DC universe

After the success of Breakout of Weaponsdirector Zach Cregger He became one of the most viewed directors in Hollywood.

After transforming the periphery nightmares into a cinematographic terror, he is now preparing for his without title Resident Evil Project, which describes as a more sincere mention of the games rather than a direct adaptation. But when it comes to his long -lasting DC Comics project, Cregger has just given fans an update that is not so encouraging.

Years ago, Word was released that Cregger had written a script entitled Shelter. The story focused on a low -level Thug Gotham that unexpectedly breaks down Batman and finds herself quickly in the lead.

The idea seemed to be a grit at the street level on the superhero genre, but Cregger has always played the speculations around it. In a new interview with Screen rantHe revealed that while he still believes in the script, timing is not right.

“I love the script. I still love that script, but that Pi, that IP of Gotham City is the most coveted thing. And at this moment, there are many people who have their type of flavor.

“You have Matt Reeves and what he is doing, and you have James Gunn and his universe DC – there are only all these things.

“It is a kind of crowded playing and my movie, I don’t think it really adapts to all this. And therefore it’s okay. I have no problems with the state of affairs with DC.”

It is not that the DC audience is starving from Gotham -based stories. We have already seen several versions of Batman coexist on the big screen, two films led by Joaquin Phoenix’S Jokerand Clay According to reports, film coming.

Fans are more open than ever to autonomous projects that do not bind directly James GunnIt is developing cinematographic universe. But to crere, pushing Shelter In that mix the battle is not the uphill battle, at least not at this moment.

“It’s fantastic, but I understand the obstacles that they would be in front of me if I had tried to make that movie go later. And so what I think will do is – I didn’t share it with James Gunn or anyone over there – it is only a day when it is only the year or next year.

So, while Cregger is committed to building nightmares elsewhere, Shelter It will remain hidden in the rear pocket. Considering the creative shake-ups that occur through the DC brand, there is always the possibility that the door can open.

Until then, fans will only have to imagine the story of the luckiest and most unfortunate henchman in Gotham City.
