Chaos broke loose after James Gunn took over the DC Studios with Peter Safran, but he finally shared the first part of their masterplan. The new DC boss will be directing Superman: Legacy, and he’s planning to kick off the new chapter of the DC Universe with this project.

Gunn announced his plans to bring Superman back to the big screen in a lengthy Twitter thread, revealing it’s the first chapter of the connected DC universe, titled “Chapter One, Gods and Monsters.”

The official synopsis for this project describes Superman as “the embodiment of truth, justice, and the American way, guided by human kindness” and it “tells the story of Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas.”

This announcement comes after months of speculations about where DC Studios is headed after Gunn and Safran took the reins last fall. All hell broke loose when they decided to let Henry Cavill go, sparking intense backlash online because he announced his return as Superman just two months prior.

Superman: Legacy will hit the theaters on July 11, 2025, and DC Studios announced several follow-ups, including The Authority, The Brave and the Bold, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, and Swamp Thing.

It’s official: Sylvester Stallone has joined the cast of the standalone sequel. 

News of Stallone’s casting was announced by Suicide Squad writer-directed James Gunn via his Twitter account. He wrote, “Always love working with my friend @officialslystallone & our work today on #TheSuicideSquad was no exception. Despite Sly being an iconic movie star, most people still don’t have any idea what an amazing actor this guy is,” alongside a picture of the two. 

Stallone added in a post of his own, “Working with this incredible Director on this astounding project has made this an amazing year. I am a very lucky man to be surrounded by such talent.”

Stallone’s role is being kept under wraps, but considering Gunn previously confirmed that filming had concluded in February, we wonder just how involved Stallone is in the film.

The Suicide Squad is set to release on August 6, 2021. It stars Margot Robbie, Idris Elba, John Cena, Joel Kinnaman, Peter Capaldi, and Viola Davis.

The cast of the Guardians of the Galaxy films has so far been rather quiet regarding the firing of their director.

Walt Disney Pictures announced on Friday that James Gunn had been dismissed after tweets he made a decade ago where he joked about rape, pedophilia, and AIDS were uncovered by right-wing activists.

Stars of the Marvel franchise have now broken their silence.

Lead actor, Chris Pratt, who plays Star-Lord posted a biblical verse reminding others of the importance of listening:

His co-star, Zoe Saldana, who portrays Gamora, wrote that she will be taking some time to think before she speaks:

Michael Rooker (Yondu) decided to bid Twitter goodbye as a result of the situation, saying: “We’re very tired & upset over the ongoing BULLS–T… neither I nor my rep will use Twitter again. Twitter sucks and I want nothing to do with it. Thank you to all who gave kind words & support. See you on Instagram.”

While Dave Bautista who stars as Drax expressed his support for Gunn and condemned the treatment of him:

A petition to reinstate the filmmaker as director of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 has already amassed over 100,000 signatures.
