"Storytelling is always king, that's all that matters to us." - James Gunn
In light of the recent news that James Gunn (director of "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "The Suicide Squad") and Peter Safran are officially "rebooting" the *entire* DC film franchise (following "The Flash" and "Aquaman: The Lost Kingdom"), we decided to break down what each of us would do if we were (somehow) put in charge of the DC Studios reboot! Strap in for two of the craziest, nerdiest, mega-fan pitch meetings of all time as Chris and Erik attempt to construct an entire inter-connected cinematic universe!
Also On This Episode:
- James Gunn's DC Studios Announcements: "Chapter One: Gods and Monsters" (click here for the full video!)
- Discussion regarding Henry Cavill's exit from the DCEU following the "Black Adam" debacle
- Essential Reads: Iron Man
(Episode edited by Erik Slader)
