'Superman' Director Teases Batman's Appearance in Upcoming Film
'Superman' Director Teases Batman's Appearance in Upcoming Film originally appeared on Parade. As audience members count down the days to the release of Superman, director James Gunn is fielding certain long-standing questions about the future fate of the DCU. Rebooting the DC Universe from the ground up, the 58-year-old Gunn has had his hands full plotting out the course of DC's cinematic trajectory. But as speculation runs rampant about the rumors of projects centered around Batman, Wonder Woman or Green Lantern, the former Guardians of the Galaxy is sharing his candid thoughts on each character's presence in the DCU. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Gunn specifically discussed the significant wait behind a solo Batman film, referring to the character as the "biggest issue in all of DC right now." 'Batman has to have a reason for existing, right?" Gunn said. "So Batman can't just be 'Oh, we're making a Batman movie because Batman's the biggest character in all of Warner Bros.,' which he is." "I'm not interested in a funny, campy Batman, really," the director continued. "So we're dealing with that. I think I have a way in, by the way. I think I really know what it's — I just am dealing with the writer to make sure that we can make it a reality.' Earlier this year, a DCU-oriented Batman film entered production. Titled The Brave and the Bold, the project will follow the Caped Crusader as he struggles to connect with his estranged son, Damian. Meanwhile, Gunn continues to oversee development of a sequel to director Matt Reeves' The Batman. As the film slowly chugs along in its early production phases, Gunn also discussed the potential for Robert Pattinson's iteration of the Dark Knight to appear in the DCU -- a prospect Gunn called unlikely, but also not impossible. "I would never say zero, because you just never know," Gunn said. "But it's not likely. It's not likely at all." 'Superman' Director Teases Batman's Appearance in Upcoming Film first appeared on Parade on Jun 17, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 17, 2025, where it first appeared.

SPIDER-MAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES Writer John Semper Jr. Wasn't Invited Back For SPIDER-MAN '94 Revival Comic — GeekTyrant
Marvel's recently announced Spider-Man '94 comic series is giving fans exactly what they've been asking for… a continuation of Spider-Man: The Animated Series , nearly three decades after its cliffhanger finale. But, there's one glaring omission from the revival that has left longtime fans scratching their heads, series showrunner and head writer John Semper Jr. wasn't invited to be part of it. Following the official announcement, Semper took to X to set the record straight. 'No, I am NOT involved with this comic book and no one at Marvel approached me to be involved in any way. Matt's text message was the first I heard of it. The internet tells me that J.M. DeMatteis is the writer of the comic book, and I have nothing but the greatest respect for him. 'His amazing body of work over the years in both animation and comic books speaks for itself, and I'm positive this new comic is in great hands. I hired him years ago to participate in writing one episode of my series (which ran for 65 episodes) and I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. 'Where he now chooses to take the series story-wise is entirely his decision. But for the record, they are NOT my creative choices, nor do they represent any oversight by me.' While the comic is in the capable hands of J.M. DeMatteis and artist Jim Towe, it's hard not to question the absence of the person who shaped the soul of the original series. Fans might remember that Semper was also instrumental in creating what later evolved into the concept of the "Spider-Verse", which is something he's rarely credited for by the company. 'Yes, it would have been nice (some might even say, respectful) if Marvel had reached out to me at some point as a courtesy. But I have long ago abandoned all expectation that Marvel would acknowledge any of my contributions to the Marvel universe – like, for instance, my creation of what is now known as the 'Spider-Verse.'' Marvel's decision echoes a larger conversation about how studios handle legacy creators, especially when reviving beloved properties. With X-Men '97 earning critical praise for respecting its roots while pushing forward, it's curious to see Spider-Man '94 take off without the voice who made the original sing.
