Checking in on the DCU's 10-Year Plan
Briefly

James Gunn and Peter Safran were named co-heads of DC Studios and proposed an eight-to-ten-year plan for the DC Universe (DCU), centered around Superman: Legacy. Additional projects included an Amanda Waller cartoon and a film featuring Damien Wayne. Before launching this new vision, they needed to address existing Warner Bros. Discovery projects, notably cancelling a third Wonder Woman film. The first product of their plan, Creature Commandos, featured actors crossing from animation to live-action, exemplifying their interconnected storytelling philosophy.
James Gunn and Peter Safran enacted an eight-to-ten-year plan for DC Studios, focusing on interconnected movies, TV shows, and video games, with Superman: Legacy as a keystone.
The transition of characters from the old DCEU to the Gunniverse has raised questions, particularly with Jason Momoa's shift from Aquaman to Lobo in the new continuity.
The animated Creature Commandos was the first release of Gunn and Safran's plan, showcasing the concept of actors reprising their roles across mediums, including Viola Davis as Amanda Waller.
Despite the ambitious vision for the DCU, legacy films like The Flash may not fit neatly into the new continuity defined by Gunn and Safran's strategic plans.
