Okay so Robert Pattinson was already auditioning for Bond before this shakeup.

James Gunn and Peter Safran found out that they were no longer going to be running DC Studios this past Friday.

Skydance co-CEOs David Ellison and Ynon Kreiz broke the news to them in person.

This reminds me: Gunn never posted about Coyote vs Acme when it was about to get canned because he was answering to Zaslav. Folks on here were even trying to defend him saying "yeah I wouldn't talk badly about my boss either."

Now look at where we are, was that silence worth it?

@AndrewJ626 The fact that gunn was involved with coyote vs acme tells me that he still has talent and should be fine, even with this professional setback. Now dc's future is another question.

James Gunn’s biggest weakness as a comic book film producer was perhaps his inability to sell snake oil. He keeps making it obvious that he hates how SUPERGIRL turned out. Meanwhile, Feige will look at you in the eyes and say RDJ Doom was the plan all along with a straight face.

When the quality of DC movies and shows starts to dip (and possibly even start to appeal to the right), the biggest thing we can do is speak with our wallets. Bro here ain't gonna last long either if the franchise continues to bomb.

I think we can safely assume that Ellison did not f with the longrun plan Gunn and Safran told him before the merger.

Either that or Ellison did like it but didn’t like them as executives specifically.
