Following the exciting announcement of the first projects in the DC Universe slate, James Gunn reveals when fans can expect casting news.
The DC Universe is going to be announcing some of its new heroes soon, according to universe architect James Gunn. Gunn and Peter Safran are now in charge of DC's movies and TV shows for the foreseeable future, with the duo recently revealing the first ten projects that are part of their DC Universe Chapter One: Gods and Monsters.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Gunn answered a fan on Twitter about the new heroes in the DCU reset, revealing that at least one major casting announcement will come in the next six months. Based on the already announced projects for the first chapter of the new DC Universe, it is possible that Gunn means casting for the animated series Creature Commandos or the Waller show are coming soon, as those seem like the ones to be finished first. However, it is also possible that the major casting announcement that Gunn said "Yes" to could be the new Superman actor. In any case, there are a few different ways the announcement could be done.
Gunn and Safran could do another private event for the press, with the DCU reveals being shared by Gunn in a special video announcement to the public the following day. That tactic did mostly work for the DCU Chapter One reveal; however, the full slate managed to leak a few hours after the private event ended.
Gunn's six-month timeframe likely means that the new DC Universe actors will be revealed during this year's San Diego Comic-Con, which takes place in July. SDCC is known to be the meeting spot for all things superhero, and Gunn knows of Marvel's impressive use of the event — which he could want to replicate in the DCU's favor.
