I'm not sure what all we even talked about this episode, but it was a whole lot more than what is written below! Not only did we discuss the Supergirl trailer teaser AND trailer, not only did we discuss the update David Jenkins gave us for Booster Gold, we somehow got into discussions on franchise tone, fan expectation, my new cornbread cast iron skillet, my new ceramic pan... I don't even know. Plus, and update on the Grant Morrison/Damon Lindelof Lanterns drama!

“We’re Not Telling Woman of Tomorrow”

Gunn clarified that the film is not a direct adaptation of Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, but rather inspired by its tone and structure.

Supergirl Test Screenings

Reports suggest:

• A darker tone than Superman

• A human trafficking storyline

The film remains on track for its 2026 release, though Warner Bros. has shifted the release date to October.

Man of Tomorrow

Brainiac Casting Confirmed

Gunn shared that the character draws inspiration from multiple comic eras, including classic Otto Binder stories and more modern, darker interpretations.

Sam McCurdy (Game of Thrones, Shōgun) joins as cinematographer.

The Batman Part II

Mister Miracle

Tom King confirms Mister Miracle is a DCU project with major implications and confirms Darkseid has been cast.

DC Tea – Rumor Cleanup

Batman & Wonder Woman Auditions Are False

Gunn states that rumors of Batman and Wonder Woman auditions are not true.

He reaffirmed both characters’ importance to the DCU.

Wonder Woman Casting Rumor

Deuxmoi claims Adria Arjona is Gunn’s top choice, though this remains unconfirmed.

Dynamic Duo Not DCU

The animated Dynamic Duo project is not part of DCU canon.

Grant Gustin Is Not the DCU Flash

After hair-dye speculation online, Gunn shut down rumors that Gustin is the new Barry Allen.

Blue Beetle 2?

Director Angel Manuel Soto says he hopes to continue the story and would love to introduce Booster Gold, possibly even through animation.

Creature Commandos

Season 2 Animating

Gunn confirmed that Creature Commandos Season 2 is animating, with more projects in development.

Captain Atom Rumor

Reports suggest Nathaniel Adam (Captain Atom) may appear in Season 2.

“A Lot Close to Greenlight”

When asked about upcoming DCU projects, Gunn stated that several are close to greenlight — and at least one already is.

Zatanna & Lobo What-Could-Have-Beens

Emerald Fennell revealed her darker, more psychological Zatanna script was likely “too far away from the genre” for DC Studios.
