It’s official? Since the development of Superman: Legacy With James Gunn on board as a writer, it was reported that there was a high chance that the DC Studios co-chairman would also opt to personally sit in the director’s chair. And now, it seems that it will be a reality.
In interview with ComicPop, the acclaimed comic book writer Tom King talked about his experience as part of the entourage that the brand’s new managers created to help them outline the new DCU. There he released the news that Gunn himself will be in charge of directing the project without giving him many detours.

“I mean, it’s hard because there are things I can talk about and things I can’t,” King said. “I mean, James Gunn is a super nerd and he’s super creative, right? He is the writer and director of the Superman movie, and he’s kind of the creative force behind it all. Him and Peter Safran. And he approached me and a bunch of fantastic, amazing writers…whose names he’s released, to work on making these movies and TV shows the best they can be.”
This information, of course, is not confirmed. Although it should be noted that the original interview has been hidden on the Comic Pop YouTube channel. Likewise, knowing James Gunn, he will surely comment on the situation once the news gains more force online.
