DC Studios Update: Two ‘Batman’ Movies, a Possible ‘Teen Titans’ Film and ‘Penguin’ Season 2, and Why James Gunn Posted a Photo With Zack Snyder


Robert Pattinson will not be in "Batman: The Brave and the Bold," a second season of "The Penguin" is a question mark and more DC Studios updates.

Gunn is deep in post-production on “Superman,” the first DC Studios movie, which he wrote and directed, while simultaneously working on post on Season 2 of the Max series “Peacemaker.” Director Craig Gillespie is halfway through production on the summer 2026 film “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow” with Milly Alcock. The horror film “Swamp Thing” has been stuck in limbo while director James Mangold focused on his Oscar nominated Bob Dylan biopic “A Complete Unknown.” The “Peacemaker” spinoff series “Waller” with Viola Davis has had what Gunn called “a bumpy road” struggling to land the right script. Another reporter then brought up how skittish studios have become around questions of diversity, equity and inclusion, in the wake of President Trump’s relentless campaign to rid not just the federal government, but much of American public life of DEI initiatives specifically and women and people of color in positions of power generally.
