Huge DCU News Is Reportedly On The Way Following Today's Private Press Event

Though we don't have much to go on, some big DCU-related news is reportedly set to hit the net next week following a private press event held at DC Studios today...

Though the details are sketchy, we're hearing from a number of sources that some major DCU-related news is going to hit at some point next week (possibly even Monday).

Apparently, a private press event is taking place at DC Studios today. Online scoopers are currently scrambling to find out more, but it sounds like this is something WB/DC is determined to keep under wraps for the time being.

The news could involve any number of future film or TV announcements, but thanks to the photo James Gunn shared on social media yesterday, there's speculation that it might have something to do with Zack Snyder taking the helm of an upcoming project.

Whatever it is, the fact that a hush, hush press event is being held does indicate that the news will be fairly substantial.

We'll be sure to keep you updated. For now, you can check out an impressive new fan-poster for Superman featuring David Corenswet's Man of Steel taking flight at the link below.

Superman also stars Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Isabel Merced as Hawkgirl, Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern Guy Gardner, and Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho.

Sara Sampaio is on board as Lex's assistant/lover Eve Teschmacher, Pruitt Taylor Vince and Neva Howell will play "Ma" and "Pa" Kent, and Milly Alcock's Supergirl has been confirmed to make her debut ahead of her own Woman of Tomorrow movie.

"And that’s a wrap," Gunn posted earlier this year when filming concluded. "God bless our cast and crew whose commitment, creativity, and hard work have brought this project to life. I set out to make a movie about a good man in a world that isn’t always so much. And the goodness and kindness and love I’ve encountered on a daily basis on the set has inspired me and thrust me forward when I felt too spent to move on my own.

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. It has been an honor. The destination has been Superman, but the journey has been the toil and the laughter and the emotions and ideas and magic we’ve shared together on set - and for that I am forever grateful."

You can check out an updated synopsis for the movie below.

"In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind."

@Lisa89 @markcassidy There was an article from Josh yesterday about Gunn and Snyder meeting. As soon as i saw "Huge DC News" at the start of the headline here, I assumed it was related to Snyder even before I saw the pic.

God bless Elon Musk for enabling President Trump to do more of the things that should be done.

What are some of your favorite '80s movies?

I like Airplane!, the original Indiana Jones trilogy, Footloose, most movies written by John Hughes, Legend, Willow, Top Gun, and Gleaming the Cube.

I'm more of a fan of WW2 flicks, where your Enabler's dream team is always and rightfully so portrayed as not only villainous but also inescapably unsuccessful.

If you don't like many '80s movies, what are some you like?

@MakeAmericaGrea - My country's anthem reads "better to live free for an hour than as a slave for 40 years". I choose to live by that mantra, and you choose to make your cult's slogan your username. If you wish to have a non-political converstation, you should have chosen a non-political moniker.

da2213viking - 2/21/2025, 1:50 PM
@Latverian - Sorry. I dont know what that is. But why would i live by his law? Are you basing your way to treat people on that? Ok. All i am saying is i personally hate the back and forth when its mostly politically motivated and i hate that people cant just come here and have opinions on nerd culture without it devolving into name calling and written threats of violence and hatred.
da2213viking
da2213viking - 2/21/2025, 1:53 PM
@bobevanz - To be far its not just him. Many others do this as well. I am not saying he is innocent but to just blame him is wrong. I share your ideas of a politcial free zone on this site. Take that crap somewhere if you want to talk about. But lets not act others dont also do this.

Newton's Third Law: Action & Reaction
If object A exerts a force on object B, object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A. In other words, forces result from interactions.

I replied to a comment staying on topic, strictly in terms of comic book adaptations and the creator behind those projects. The response I got had clear sociopolitical implications instead, so I addressed that response in kind, albeit in not as diplomatically inoffensive a way as would have been preferable by some.

Accuse me of being rude, if you will. I've always worn both my sincerity and my rage on my sleeve. But do not for one second even imply that said rudeness was inexcusable, or in any way unreasonable.

da2213viking - 2/21/2025, 2:18 PM
@Latverian - I am paraphrasing a bit here but wasnt his response to you Freedom requires constant vigilance and your response was your freedom required him to be extinguished? Idk i am too lazy to scroll up. Lol.

Perhaps i am being naive and stupid. I know who you are arguing with can be trouble. But i like to think we can put our political differences to the side on this site and just talk about some Mother f'ing comicbooks and CBMs and other geek content. Post memes and GiFs and just celebrate
Or hate that media we consume.

You're not wrong, that's what he said and that's what I replied with.

But at the risk of being presumptuous, I simply refuse to pretend that I do not read between the lines. I like to get rid of the middle-man and address what's being cunningly implied, not what's being cowardly told.

And you're not naive, just an optimist. But I'm not, and I'm neither willing nor able to pretend that I am.

@Latverian - Thats fair i suppose. But ask yourself. If i had said what he said in that comment would i have been met with same response? I am guessing not. But IDK. Just oh so tired of politics. I come here for a break and to read the news and comments. Yet all i get is a lot of political banter. I had no idea we were on a twitter. Off topic Django is one of my Favorites of all time!!!
Latverian
Latverian - 2/21/2025, 2:42 PM
@da2213viking - Neither your username nor your behaviour are politically driven, so of course you wouldn't be met with the same kind of response from me, even if you had made the same comment.

Can't go wrong with Quentin. Call me basic, but I'm a sucker for Pulp Fiction. I even have an old t-shirt with the classic Uma Thurman poster that hasn't fitted me since high-school yet I refuse to throw away, lol.

But yeah, Django is another classic of his.

@bobevanz - brotha, what I've been saying for months. But all the armchair politicians have to sound off like their super special savior's gonna give em a handy when they're done.

I know it's more annoying coming from this particular chode, but there are many that agree with ya chico.
