James Gunn Says Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman Will Unite in the DCU… Just Not Yet
DC Studios co-head James Gunn is planting the seeds for a future where Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman once again share the screen, but fans hoping for that moment right away might want to pump the brakes.
While walking the red carpet at the London premiere of Superman, Gunn was asked if we’ll see DC’s iconic Trinity together in his rebooted universe. His answer? “Of course, yeah! But, not in the next movie.”
Yes, the holy trinity of superheroes is coming, just don’t expect them to crash through the same wall until later down the road.
Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, and Gal Gadot prevoiusly stood side by side in Batman v Superman and Justice League. But Gunn’s DCU is going to do a bit more world-building than Zack Snyder did before he brings these characters together.
Gunn is currently developing a separate Batman reboot with The Brave and the Bold, directed by It’s Andy Muschietti, and a new Wonder Woman film is also in the works. No casting announcements yet for Bruce or Diana, but the foundation is clearly being laid.
The Trinity is coming… Gunn’s just making sure the timing is right.
