The internet has been set ablaze thanks to a report claiming that James Gunn and Peter Safran are essentially ready to do away with any remnants of the SnyderVerse over at DC Studios. Now, after months of being heralded as the hero DC needed, people are calling for James Gunn to be fired.
Recommended VideosFor context, The Hollywood Reporter shared insights into what’s allegedly happening over at DC Studios. These plans include, but aren’t limited to:
- Shelving Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman 3.
- Debating whether including Superman as a cameo in The Flash is a good idea.
- Debating the future of Henry Cavill’s role as Superman within the DCU entirely.
- Ending Jason Momoa’s tenure as Aquaman, so he can be recast as Lobo.
Lots to take in there, that’s for sure. James Gunn tweeted on Dec. 1 that he was “making plans” for the future of the franchise, but after hearing what these plans might be, fans are ready for him to stop.

You see, folks, when someone makes a creative decision that doesn’t fit your preferences, it’s actually perfectly fine to wish unemployment upon them. Not unhinged or out-of-pocket at all.
Never a huge Snyderverse fan. Until today when they announced the Wonder Woman film is cancelled. #BringBackZackSnyder #FireJamesGunn https://t.co/iGqSl2vBJV

James Gunn is yet to address the THR report, or the push for his firing, but we’ll keep you posted when, and if, he does.
