James Gunn to run DC Studios

It appears that DC Studios has found its Kevin Feige, and it's a familiar face. On Tuesday, Warner Bros. Discovery announced the appointment of James Gunn and Peter Safran as co-chairs and co-CEOs of DC Studios, a new entity formed to replace the failing DC Films. Gunn and Safran will oversee all DC-related efforts at Warner Bros., including film, television, and animation. The two will report directly to David Zaslav, the new head of Warner Bros. Discovery.

"DC has among the most entertaining, powerful, and iconic characters in the world and I am thrilled to have the singular and complementary talents of James and Peter joining our world-class team and overseeing the creative direction of the storied DC Universe," said Zaslav in a statement. "Their decades of experience in filmmaking, close ties to the creative community, and proven track record thrilling superhero fans around the globe make them uniquely qualified to develop a long-term strategy across film, TV, and animation, and take this iconic franchise to the next level of creative storytelling."
