- Mangold recently signed an overall deal with Paramount, with reporting indicating his next feature is likely High Side starring Timothée Chalamet.
- DC Studios is targeting only one to two theatrical releases per year, with a slate already stretching through 2027.
- No production start, release date, or finished script has been announced, and DC will not move forward until a script meets Gunn’s standards.
- Outlets report the earliest feasible window could be around 2028, though the timing remains speculative.
