DC Studios: before James Gunn, Warner Bros would have asked Kevin Feige to relaunch the DCEU

    A few days ago, the world of superheroes in the cinema was struck by an unexpected announcement: that of the appointment of James Gunn at the head of DC Studios, the new entity launched by Warner Bros Discovery in full restructuring after having thanked Walter Hamada, the former President of DC Films and with whom the DC Extended Universe had great artistic conflicts. The director of the three Guardians of the Galaxy and former pillar of the Marvel Studios house will therefore direct the new DCEU with the support of Peter Safran, a producer who has worked on many DC films and who will take care of the whole part. business of the case. Only here, before setting his sights on James Gunn, the current boss of Warner Bros Discovery, David Zaslav, would have first thought of another person, also from the enemy team: Kevin Feige.

    DC Studios: before James Gunn, Warner Bros would have asked Kevin Feige to relaunch the DCEU

    Big boss of Marvel Studios and guarantor of the coherence and good performance of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Kevin Feige would have been approached by Warner Bros if we are to believe the comments made by the newspaper Above the Line in an article explaining that the DCEU is now on the right track. If this information is taken seriously, it is because it is Jeff Sneider, journalist and insider who has released many scoops in recent months, who runs the site in question. According to the latter, Kevin Feige would have declined the offer proposed by Warner Bros, the amount of which has obviously not been revealed. Recently, we learned that Kevin Feige had no hard feelings about James Gunn's decision to turn his back on Marvel and go to the competition. On the Black Panther Wakanda Forever red carpet a few days ago during the preview, Kevin Feige explained that James Gunn had called him before the news was official and that he was delighted with his new job.

     





    I talk to James almost every day. We have a great project coming out 'Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special'. We have the awesome 'Guardians of the Galaxy vol.3' coming in May. How will he find the time to work for DC until May? I don't know, but once it does, I'll be the first to be delighted. I'll be the first in line.


     

    In the meantime, fans of every stable continue to rant on social media, with MCU advocates laughing sweetly that DC is forced to seek out Marvel talent to straighten things out, while DC apostles guffaw of the downfall of the MCU since the end of Avengers Endgame. Actually, both are absolutely right...
