It appears that Warner Brothers has finally decided who will helm DC productions into the future with James Gunn and Peter Safran being named co-chairs and co-CEOs of DC Studios (Formerly DC Films which the leadership role was vacated by Walter Hamada). They will report to Warner Bros Discovery CEO David Zaslav. Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy, The Suicide Squad, and Peacemaker series) and Peter Safran (The Suicide Squad, Aquaman, Shazam) are not novices to the DCEU and have been part of some of the most successful properties produced by Warner Brothers.
Questions have been brought up since the announcement as to whether Gunn will cease writing and directing future films with the weight of the role he is now tasked with. It is worth considering that leading the future of DC movies will be a shared role that may offer creative opportunities for both Gunn and Safran to explore.
There are many issues that will still need to be addressed, like the continued complication that is Ezra Miller and their upcoming Flash movie, but this leadership decision is a definite win for all comic book fans!
