O POVO CONTRA GORILA GRODD

[Superman Saga News @SuperSagaNews]

Jeremy Latcham has been given no mandate by David Ellison on what to prioritize among the DC Studios projects that were already in development

Starting December 1, Latcham has full autonomy to inherit and decide what moves ahead in James Gunn and Peter Safran's slate

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

I'm beginning to believe he was ready to step down as CEO after MOT, they got wind of it, and brought it forward.

Latcham is someone Gunn knows and worked with who has a similar perspective on storytelling and character. That may not be a coincidence.

They might have hired him to keep Gunn onside, because I genuinely think they value Gunn as a writer/director, hence they hired him for Superman 3, but didn't feel he was right as CEO.

Gunn needs to be in a solely creative role, not CEO - maybe a Creative Consultant, head of the writers room at DC. The CEO thing was definitely getting to him.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

Yep, the MOT stuff was all bullshit, made up by Variety.

Skydance clearly didn't rate Gunn as a CEO, but they clearly do rate him as a writer/director as they hired him for Superman 3.

Either they're going after Variety for their reporting and they clearly didn't sanction it OR they briefed to Variety as twisted way to defend their decision to fans, not to attack Gunn.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

There you go, no massive reshoots, they'll stick to the original vision for MOT. Just need to decide on Adria, which should be simple - keep her.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

He also says “there’s a lot of untrue rumours going around”.

Odds the Variety stuff is complete bullshit too?

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

James Gunn has the streets. Man of the people.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

This is what I've seen reported in some places. That Gunn & Safran had decided to stand down next year after MOT but Ellison decided it was better to do it earlier, to allow them to get ahead with planning (which I totally understand).

Some even said Gunn recommended Latcham from their time at Marvel together.

Remember, Gunn has signed to write/direct another DCU movie (Superman 3), and is still involved with DC Studios, they're clearly on good terms.

The Variety stuff was bullshit, a smear from those journos.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

I said Variety did those hit pieces, not Ellison and Skydance.

They've had it in for Gunn and the DCU for ages, Gunn just exposed them yet again.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

Well nothing is obvious Juan.

Marvel have final say on every MCU movie, not the director. Including Gunn’s GOTG (where Latcham was involved).

Directors never have final say over a Bond movie (that’s why Nolan said no).

It’s common in franchise movies, it’s not a big drama. They want this movie to succeed.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

I think they were always gonna do that, I think the suggestions to the contrary were nonsense.

[James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker @JamesPrescott77]

Rocha even said something similar to this today, that Latcham is a good guy, well liked and respected, good at what he does. He also knows Gunn well and believes in his abilities, and there's mutual respect.

I think Latcham will keep Gunn onside and keep him involved, and he's smart enough to build on what's already achieved and use MOT as a springboard.

Gunn won't have to deal with Ellison anymore, he can solely deal with Latcham, which is good.

Seth Rogen hints on a mystery casting for Scrooge McDuck in the ‘Darkwing Duck’ reboot:

“We just cast a Scrooge McDuck who might be the most exciting casting I could ever imagine. I’ll tell you after.”

James Gunn says Skydance has NOT seen ‘Man Of Tomorrow’ and shuts down rumors that it’s being re-edited:

“There are a lot of untrue rumors going around—-the only people that have are Peter Safran and a very small trusted group of friends and family. So any stories around this narrative are false.”

Essa resposta dele foi muito boa.
