DC Studios Reports Secret James Gunn Film Plans To Avoid Rip-Off

James Gunn, co-president of DC Studios, is developing a secret DC Universe (DCU) film that has not been announced because he fears it could be easily copied by rival studios. This project, distinct from the previously revealed 'Gods and Monsters' slate, was part of his original pitch to Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav but kept under wraps for strategic reasons. Gunn has hinted that this mystery film is his favorite and that he will likely direct it once the screenplay is complete. The current focus remains on the upcoming 'Superman' film releasing July 11, starring David Corenswet, followed by other projects like the second season of 'Peacemaker' and the 'Lanterns' HBO series. Gunn has also mentioned discussions with a very famous actor about a potential DCU project that must be a 'masterpiece' before moving forward. Fans speculate the secret film could be an adaptation of 'Kingdom Come' or another unique story, but official details remain under tight security to prevent imitation.
