Review – Titans 2025 Annual #1: The Story of an Amazon
Titans 2025 Annual #1 cover, via DC Comics. Ray: DC has had to reshuffle the past of a lot of its characters as they refine their continuities – some gett major changes, like Supergirl. But none have had a trickier knot to untie than Donna Troy – who has had a tangled path even before any reboots. Remember, she wasn't even supposed to be her own character, originally starting as a young Diana in flashback stories before being accidentally added to Teen Titans. But she's stood the test of time, and now DC brings in one of Wonder Woman's most iconic creators to tell the definitive Donna Troy story, retelling her origin and bringing her into the modern day – and Phil Jimenez absolutely hits it out of the park. This isn't just the best Donna Troy story, it's the best Titans story in decades. The return. Via DC Comics. This story starts with a framing segment of Donna in the present day as she gets shocking news – her biological father wants to meet her. This book goes with the origin of Donna being a child who was orphaned in a fire, saved by Diana and brought to Themyscira, where she was adopted by Hippolyta. This wasn't a smooth process, and there are some really touching segments dealing with Donna's struggles to adjust. After she becomes Wonder Girl, she meets with the Titans for the first time and forms the bonds that will define her life. There's a fantastic segment where she manages to be one of the only people to make Batman see that he might possibly be wrong, and the annual really delves into the connections she has to each Titan. Terry Long is barely touched on, thankfully, but Donna's late son Robert looms large, and there are some incredible musings on grief that hit hard. Without spoiling anything, the final segment dealing with the identity of Donna's father is one of the most powerful things I've read in comics in a very long time, and comes from the same deeply personal place that Jimenez's stunning Pride story came from a year ago. This one-shot might wind up being an Eisner winner, thanks to both Jimenez's incredibly powerful, personal writing and his stunning art. This is a franchise that hasn't had any real big wins for a long time, still struggling under damage done in events two decades ago, but this book is a masterpiece.

Teen Titans: DCU Movie Could Be Coming Sooner Than Fans Think
The DCU movie has received an exciting update. In March 2024, it was reported that a live-action Teen Titans movie was in the works at DC Studios and Warner Bros. Pictures. Written by Ana Nogueira, the movie does not yet have a director yet but will be part of James Gunn and Peter Safran's DCU. In February 2025, Safran said, via Variety, that the script for Teen Titans is 'not ready yet.' Gunn added, 'It was something that Ana was really impassioned about, and she turned over an amazing script for us. She's fiddling with that now, but it's definitely not a finished script.' What is the update on the DCU Teen Titans movie? While there's been little news about the project since then, Jeff Sneider's The InSneider reports, 'Nogueira has already handed in her first draft of Teen Titans, and owes DC a revision, which she'll work on while writing Wonder Woman.' Given that Wonder Woman is said to be a priority for Warner Bros. at this time, this news is exciting in that it means the Teen Titans script could be coming together in a timely manner, too. Gunn has previously stated that they won't move forward on any DCU projects until the script meets their standards; however, given that Nogueira is writing two DCU projects at once, Gunn and Safran seem to have faith in her, and that means development on Teen Titans could be moving forward in the very near future. Further details about the project remain under wraps, as no plot details or casting information are available at this time. The DCU kicked off in December 2024 with Creature Commandos. That was followed by Gunn's Superman movie earlier this month, while Peacemaker Season 2 premieres in August 2025. Lanterns, Clayface, and Supergirl will all be released in 2026.

Teen Titans: James Gunn Offers Disappointing Update for DCU Movie
James Gunn has offered an update about the DCU movie. In March 2024, it was reported that a Teen Titans movie was in development at DC Studios and Warner Bros. Pictures. Written by Ana Nogueira, the film will be part of Gunn and Peter Safran's DCU, which officially kicked off in December 2024 with Creature Commandos. Safran said about the project, via Variety, in February 2025, 'The script's not ready yet. I mean, I think we said that Ana Nogueira is writing it.' 'We haven't said that,' Gunn said. 'No, I think it was out there,' Safran said. 'I think it was out there.' 'It's out there,' Gunn said. 'It was something that Ana was really impassioned about, and she turned over an amazing script for us. She's fiddling with that now, but it's definitely not a finished script.' What did James Gunn say about Teen Titans? On Threads, Gunn clarified that when he said 'she turned over an amazing script for us,' he was referring to Nogueira's script for Supergirl, which arrives in 2026, rather than the Teen Titans movie. Nogueira is now writing the DCU Wonder Woman movie. While Jeff Sneider's The InSneider recently reported that Nogueira 'has already handed in her first draft of Teen Titans, and owes DC a revision, which she'll work on while writing Wonder Woman,' Gunn says the Teen Titans script 'doesn't exist' at this point in time. In another comment, he reiterated that he has 'never read a script' for Teen Titans and seemed to confirm that the project is on the back burner for now. Neither the DCU Teen Titans nor Wonder Woman movies have release dates at this time; however, Wonder Woman is expected to come first, as Gunn recently said it's a priority for the studio at this time following the success of Superman. No director is yet attached to the project. Originally reported by Brandon Schreur at SuperHeroHype.

James Gunn shares new update on Teen Titans project
James Gunn, co-head of DC Studios, has officially confirmed that the much-discussed Teen Titans live-action film currently has no completed script in development. Despite earlier reports suggesting Ana Nogueira had drafted a screenplay, Gunn clarified that such a script 'doesn't exist' and that she has since shifted focus to writing the studio's Wonder Woman reboot. A script for Teen Titans doesn't exist as of right now. — Home of DCU (@homeofdcu) July 28, 2025 In past comments, Gunn had noted that Nogueira initially submitted a draft in early 2025, which was still undergoing revisions. However, in a recent response to fan questions, he stated that the script remains unfinished and the project is not actively being worked on at the moment. TEEN TITANS has been put on hold to prioritize WONDER WOMAN — DCU Updates (@DCU_Updates) July 28, 2025 The unexpected clarification contradicts prior expectations that Teen Titans would be part of the DCU's Chapter One slate alongside projects like Supergirl and Peacemaker Season 2. According to public updates, the film has now been deprioritized while resources focus on confirmed projects such as Wonder Woman. Although this does not guarantee the project won't return in a later phase, the current status indicates that Teen Titans remains on hold pending further development, or may have been superseded entirely.

All 26 Characters Featured in the Hall of Justice Mural in SUPERMAN Revealed — GeekTyrant
James Gunn has shared high-res images of the Hall of Justice mural from Superman , and it's packed with history. The stunning piece of art charts the entire legacy of metahumans in the DCU. Featuring 26 characters, the mural highlights figures with deep ties to modern-day heroes like Wonder Woman, Zatanna, and The Flash, offering fans a glimpse at how expansive this new cinematic universe could become. The hi-res shots of the mural come complete with a breakdown of every single character on it. Whether these names remain as Easter eggs or lay the foundation for future stories in Gunn's DCU remains a mystery for now. But if these characters represent the past of this shared world, there's a good chance some of them will eventually step into the spotlight. Sister Symmetry - a powerful sorceress who wields the Cloak of Cyra and is imbued with powers by the Lord of Order. Silent Knight - hailing from the 6th Century, the British hero is a master swordsman and thought to be a previous incarnation of Carter Hall/Hawkman and possibly even Clark Kent's distant ancestor. Exoristos - an exiled Amazon from Themyscira, she once wielded the sword eventually used by Wonder Woman. Black Pirate - a 16th-century do-gooder who previously appeared in The CW's Legends of Tomorrow , he fought the good fight on the high seas and was a member of the Five Warriors from Forever. Miss Liberty - a hero during the American Revolutionary War, she also served on the time-displaced Five Warriors from Forever team. Whip Whirlwind - better known as Max Mercury, the speedster was a hero during the Wild West, where he used his Flash-like abilities to protect Native Americans. Super Chief - an Iroquois warrior from the 15th century, his powers were granted by the Manitou Stone but only last for an hour at a time. Lazarus Lane - this Wild West-era hero was made the Spirit of Vengeance by the Wise Owl, and took on the moniker, El Diablo. However, the demon only takes over his body when he's asleep or unconscious. Chop-Chop - Wu Cheng is a young Chinese pilot who served in the Blackhawk Squadron during World War II. Ghost of Flanders - Rip Graves faked his death to become a superhero, becoming a masked crimefighter during World War II. Like G.I. Robot, he kills Nazis. Sandman - Not to be confused with the Neil Gaiman character, Wesley Dodds carries a Gas Gun into action and uses his prophetic dreams to help him figure out the crime scenes he encounters. Amazing Man - Will Everett served as this Golden Age vigilante during World War II, and gained powers after being kidnapped and experimented on by the Ultra-Humanite. He can now mimic and absorb any material. Zatara - Giovanni "John" Zatara is the father of Zatanna. Like his daughter, he casts spells by speaking backwards and was a key member of the Justice Society of America. Liberty Bell - another DC character who has had multiple characters hold the matter, she activated her powers by ringing the Liberty Bell. The Libby Lawrence version is the wife of Johnny Quick and Jesse Quick's mother. Bulletman - this World War II superhero used his Crime Cure serum to battle Nazis, and donned the Gravity Regulator Helmet to deflect bullets. Bulletgirl - Bulletman's wife had the same powers and gadgets as her husband. Max Mercury - This time-displaced speedster will be known best to many of you as the mentor of The Flash (Wally West) and Kid Flash (Bart Allen). TNT - Thomas N. "Tex" Thomas has radioactive powers that generate heat energy, which he used against the Nazis. He later joined the All-Star Squadron and Seven Soldiers of Victory. Dan the Dyna-mite - Tex's student got involved with his teacher's crime-fighting when he was exposed to the same experiment that granted TNT his abilities. Phantom Lady - this Golden Age Squadron member used her Black Light Ray to project black light, allowing her to create darkness and turn invisible. Atomic Knight - tasked with restoring peace and order, Gardner Grayle wore an experimental radiation-resistant armour in the post-apocalyptic world created by World War III. Freedom Beast - this South African superhero succeeded B'Wana Beast as the primary protector of African wildlife. He accesses The Red, a mystical force tied to Swamp Thing and Animal Man. Wildcat - Ted Grant was part of the Justice Society of America, and a former heavyweight boxing champion who moonlights as a superhero (his mystical "Nine Lives" makes him particularly durable). Vibe - this fan favourite Arrrowverse character was one of the first Latino superheroes, and uses vibrational manipulation to defeat his foes. Gunfire - able to turn anything into a gun, a Bloodlines Parasite granted Andrew Van Horn his impressive powers. Maxwell Lord - the founder of the DCU's Justice Gang doesn't have powers in the comics, but does this mural suggest he's a metahuman as well? Chances are, he just fancies himself as being worthy to stand alongside these great heroes. Which of these characters would you most like to see in the DCU?
