James Gunn and Peter Safran step down at DC Studios as Jeremy Latcham takes over

[JeffHardy30]

DC's film and television universe is changing leadership. Collider reports that James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down as heads of DC Studios after four years, following the merger of Warner Bros and Paramount

Both will keep producing DC projects, and Gunn is writing his next one. Their replacement is Jeremy Latcham, a former Marvel executive who worked on Iron Man, The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy, and who produced Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

On Threads, Gunn called the job trying and cited the at times corporate nature of the role. No effective date for the change was given

Upcoming DC titles include Man of Tomorrow on 9 July 2027, with David Corenswet and Lars Eidinger as Brainiac. Filming has also wrapped on The People v Gorilla Grodd

Gunn stepping back from management while still writing and producing could be the best of both for fans, since his creative voice stays. Latcham worked on some of Marvel's biggest early successes, so he brings plenty of experience. Man of Tomorrow will be the first big test under the new leadership

Is this good news for the DC universe? And what do you hope Jeremy Latcham does first?
