Hear what James Gunn has to say about canon! For better or worse, Hollywood is what it is today in large part thanks to the concept of the shared universe. And the shared universe style of storytelling, of course, rose to popularity because of the huge success of Marvel Studios over the past 15 years. In other words, because of canon.

The other studios famously – or is it infamously – tried to follow the shared universe trend, usually failing to replicate Marvel’s big wins. And that includes the DCEU, a series that had its moments but never really found its footing as it tried to be the next MCU.

But that’s where James Gunn comes in. As he launches his new DC Universe with Creature Commandos, and then the new 2025 Superman movie after that, he told us the following: "One of the weird things to me is none of this is real. It may be alarming to people, but none of it is real."
Basically, as far as James Gunn is concerned, canon has become way more important than it should be. And his new DCU is going to reflect that point of view, big time.

As a filmmaker who has worked for both Marvel and DC, and is now actually in charge of DC Studios along with his partner Peter Safran, James Gunn has a vision for his newly rebooted take on the world of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and the rest. It’s clear that for the Guardians of the Galaxy and The Suicide Squad director, canon and continuity and shared universes aren’t as important as plain old good storytelling.
