James Gunn Says Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman Won’t Team Up in Next DCU Movie

Gunn’s deliberate strategy staggers solo introductions to build momentum before assembling DCU’s iconic trio

Overview

  • Superman: Legacy starring David Corenswet as Clark Kent launches DCU Chapter One in theaters on July 11, 2025.
  • Gunn told Deadline at the Superman premiere in London that the three heroes will eventually unite on screen but not in the upcoming film.
  • Standalone Batman and Wonder Woman movies are currently in early scripting stages with no casting or release dates confirmed.
  • Under Gunn’s oversight, DC Studios now requires completed scripts before greenlighting films and keeps standalone projects separate from crossover planning.
  • No formal Justice League exists yet in the rebooted DCU, with a team-up of the three heroes slated for a later phase beyond the first wave of solo releases.
