In line with the report, Jenkins submitted a therapy for the movie co-written with DC author and producer Geoff Johns, however that Gunn, co-exec Peter Safran, and different Warner Bros. Footage executives advised Jenkins that the movie because it stands doesn’t match with the brand new plans for DC Comics movies.

Cannot wait to share the subsequent chapter with you.”
Greater than something, it is a signal of the state of flux that DC Comics is at the moment in. With the earlier technology of executives out and and new ones in, Gunn and Safran mark a step additional away from the model of the DC universe imagined by Zack Snyder. Henry Cavill introduced this fall that he’s again as Superman after his cameo within the closing moments of Black Adam, however that plan could not stick for Gunn and Safran.
In the meantime, The Flash continues to be set for launch in early 2023 regardless of Ezra Miller’s conduct all year long. Jason Momoa’s Aquaman and the Misplaced Kingdom reportedly completed capturing in 2021, and is ready for a December 2023 launch date. There are additionally rumors that Momoa may, after that movie, shift to enjoying DC’s spacefaring biker bounty hunter Lobo. Shazam! Fury of the Gods continues to be set to launch on March 17, and Gunn himself tweeted an image of the brand new poster for Blue Beetle, which is able to star Cobra Kai’s Xolo Maridueña.
THR notes that whereas Dwayne Johnson was excited to hype up an on-screen conflict between Black Adam and Superman, the brand new administration might not be keen on his unplanned advertising and marketing, and the film’s questionable efficiency on the field workplace makes a sequel unlikely.
Jenkins may nonetheless write and direct the subsequent Marvel Lady movie as she did with the primary two, and Gal Gadot should still be enjoying the character–these are at the moment unknown–but the film that was beforehand being deliberate appears to be useless.
