(the DCU), which will be called "Gods and Monsters".
On the agenda are 10 new projects for cinema and television, which will all be connected to each other in one way or another.
• Unlocks everything: the docu about Pamela Anderson could change her life
• Graphic nude scenes, brutal killings and severe promiscuity: the film that shocked the Sundance Film Festival
• Anti-Semitic and embarrassing: this film is simply an outrage
The presented projects will begin to land on the screens during 2025, among which you can find "Superman: Legacy", the script of which will be written by Gunn himself (and which will not star Henry Cavill, who played the Man of Steel in the last decade);
"The Brave and the Bold", a "father and son" story centered on Batman and Robin;
"Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow", which will deal with the female version of Superman for the first time since the 80s;
As well as an animated series in the style of "Suicide Squad" called "Creature Commandos" (which will also be written by Gunn, who directed and wrote the "Guardians of the Galaxy" trilogy) and a spin-off series to "Peacemaker" called "Waller", which will deal with the character of Amanda Waller (which she will continue played by Oscar-winning actress Viola Davis).
Gunn and Sepran also introduced "Lanterns," a series described as "true detective" in space, centered on several versions of the Green Lantern character, who solve intergalactic mysteries;
"Paradise Lost", a prequel series to "Wonder Woman" (without the involvement of Gal Gadot, who was recently announced that the production of the superheroine's third film was stopped), which will take place on the Amazon island where Diana Prince was born (and which is influenced by "Game of Thrones");
