James Gunn & Peter Safran To Stay At DC Studios After Paramount-Warner Bros Merger
James Gunn and Peter Safran, the bosses of Warner Bros’ owned label DC Studios, will continue to lead the film, TV, comic book production hub and do what they do best.
We hear the duo had a meeting with new Skydance co-CEO David Ellison about their future and it went well. Per this morning’s news, all film units, Paramount and Warner Bros, are to report into Paramount Pictures co-chairs Dana Goldberg and Josh Greenstein.
Gunn has been shooting the Superman sequel, Man of Tomorrow, set for release on July 9, 2027. The label’s Clayface about Batman antagonist is their first lower budget genre movie opening on Oct. 23. Warner Bros’ second highest grossing movie last year was Gunn’s Superman with more than $618M at the global box office.
The DC HBO Max series Lanterns has been a ratings success.
This is all according to sources this AM. Paramount and DC couldn’t be reached for comment.
