Overview

  • A Reddit post on r/SnyderCut urged fans to share spoilers, flood review sites with negative ratings and reserve tickets without buying them to hinder the July 11 release.
  • Gunn replied on Threads that he “thinks we’ll survive” and dismissed the campaign as coming from about “eight people” unlikely to sway the film’s prospects.
  • He has said that opposing views can be beneficial and revealed that he consulted Zack Snyder on whether to include red trunks in the new Superman suit.
  • Gunn confirmed that Matt Reeves’s The Batman Part II is not canceled but remains without a completed script as Reeves takes his time on development.
  • He said Andy Muschietti’s The Brave and the Bold remains the DCU’s Batman project and indicated Robert Pattinson’s Batman is unlikely to join the shared universe.
