James Gunn leads the DCU alongside Peter Safran and they already have a plan.
James Gunn and his plan: link cinema, television and animation of the DCU
As you know, James Gunn likes to be close to his fans, and now, despite being one of the heads of the DCU, with all the work that entails, he’s taking the trouble and that should always be looked at positively. So much so that he seems to have revealed part of the strategy with which he wants to bring the universe of DC characters to success.
When asked if there will be any characters that will be introduced through television shows, the Guardians of the Galaxy director’s response was affirmative, and he also added the following:
“Definitely yes. The DCU will be connected through film, television (and animation).”

Also, the director ensured that in terms of animation, the fact that there are DCU projects will not affect the separate and individual stories that are often made and that fans like so much. “independent animation or live shows that take place in separate worlds”Gunn revealed to another follower via Chirping.
At the moment, we don’t know what projects Gunn and Safran, who are currently working on their DCU bible, will announce as confirmed by Zaslav, also, we know that James Gunn has 5 very specific DC superheroes as pillars, so yes o yes, everything will revolve around them, or at least that was the initial ideal.
That’s how it is with DC’s future
Warner Bros. Discovery’s plan is, as Zaslav revealed, to schedule 10 years of successful DC projects, starring Superman. Since the news broke that James Gunn is co-president of DC, there have been many rumors, from a Mister Terrific project, to the possibility of Jason Momoa playing Aquaman and Lobo at the same time, yes, everything points to the latter would be in animated form.
To this we must add that Black Adam brought Superman back to life, giving some hope back to DC fans. On the other hand, we have the counterpart, which is that The CW’s Arrowverse is running out of projects, and everything indicates that, with the exception of last minute changes, every one of the DC projects in the chain and offshoots, will end up ending soon or for be cancelled.
This is what is known for now, What do you think about the future of the DC universe? Does it indicate a recovery or will there be a decline again?
