James Gunn might be hectic running the program with co-CEO Peter Safran at DC Studios, however the Superman director has actually still discovered time to spark speculation surrounding future brand-new castings with a less-than-cryptic post on social networks.
“If you had the possibility to cast any of the [Guardians of the Galaxy] stars in the DC Universe, who would you cast them as?” one fan asked Gunn on Threads. The director responded: “Well, that would be a spoiler, would not it?”
Gunn, notoriously, directed 3 Guardians of the Galaxy films for Marvel Studios from 2014 to 2023. His cast throughout the trilogy consisted of Chris Pratt as Star-Lord, Zoe Saldana as Gamora, Dave Bautista as Drax, Bradley Cooper as the voice of Rocket, Vin Diesel as the voice of Groot, Karen Gillan as Nebula, and Pom Klementieff as Mantis.
… let the theories start. Gunn had actually formerly opened the flooring to fans and asked who Bautista must play in the DCU. The most popular response? Batman bad guy Hugo Strange.
Klementieff, however, might be the most likely very first prospect to cross the divide in between Marvel and DC. She formerly informed fans at San Antonio's Superhero Comic Con that she had actually been “talking” to Gunn about depicting “one particular character.”
The restarted DCU, led by James Gunn and Peter Safran, will start later on this year with Max animated series Creature Commandos. The very first live-action job, Superman, is set to fly into theaters on July 11, 2025.
The very first stage of the DCU has actually currently been laid out by Gunn. Entitled DCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, the wave of motion pictures and reveals includes 10 tasks, consisting of a Green Lantern television series and a brand-new Batman film.
