DC Studios experienced yet another dramatic leadership shakeup. But with this, a rumour began doing the rounds about the Superman sequel, Man of Tomorrow.
It claimed that Skydance – the company that acquired Warner Bros. – executives watched the upcoming DC film.
According to rumour, the new stakeholders were unhappy over the quality of the movie.
And that is the reason for the exit of James Gunn, who directed Man of Tomorrow and headed DC Studios.
The rumour further stated that Skydance might drop the theatrical release of the Superman sequel and may send the film to HBO Max.
Addressing the rumour directly, Gunn took to Threads, writing, “There are a lot of untrue rumours going around, but one of them is that Skydance has seen ‘Man of Tomorrow’ and that all sorts of sweeping changes are being made.”
“No one from Skydance has even seen the movie – the only people that have are Peter Safran and a very small trusted group of friends and family. So any stories around this narrative are false.”
However, Gunn is not entirely leaving DC, as he is involved in the post-production of Man of Tomorrow, which is scheduled to release on July 9, 2027.
