With Lanterns wrapping up this weekend, all eyes are back on what’s next for DC and, in particular, what co-chairman and co-CEO James Gunn is cooking up after Man of Tomorrow.
We don’t have a complete answer yet, but we do have a hint that something is on its way. In a response to a comment on Threads, James Gunn has revealed he is actively working on writing his next film. He was asked, “Are you ready to write your next film, James, or not quite yet?” to which Gunn responded, “Already in it. I had to do something while I was waiting for the assembly!” He also went on to confirm that the assembly cut of Superman: Man of Tomorrow is complete, which is exciting for fans of the David Corenswet-led franchise.
