Gunn Indicates Mystery DC Series Shoot Soon

Warner Bros. Pictures

With “Superman” having hit digital last Friday, the film’s writer/director James Gunn recently swung by Chris Hardwick’s podcast I Think You’re Overthinking It and cleared up some of the timeline surrounding the DC Studios slate.

He confirms that his Superman follow-up project, which he’s writing/directing, will likely be the next DC Studios film to shoot after “Clayface” wraps production.

Then he also teases a TV series, one previously unannounced, is “going next” after the “Superman” follow-up:

“I can say that probably the next movie we’re gonna be making is the follow-up to ‘Superman,’ which I don’t want to get in too much detail on, but like that’s what’s probably the next film we’re making, I think. Well, hopefully we’re making [‘The Batman Part 2’] before that, and then I think it’s [the ‘Superman’ follow-up]. And then we have another TV show, which nobody knows about, which is going next.”

Various DC TV projects have been discussed like “Paradise Lost,” “Blue Beetle,” “Waller” and “Booster Gold,”but these comments suggest it’s none of these.

Gunn also hinted recently that the Justice Gang could be returning in the new “Superman” project, which he completed an extensive treatment of earlier this month.
