So… my bold prediction of two years ago is closer to coming to pass. Mark my deadly words. James Gunn will run the DCEU - either in its current form or in a new incarnation. He's got the skillset, sensibilities and - most importantly - affinity for the IP. The die is cast… DC at a Turning Point: James Gunn Pitches Secret Movie, Dwayne Johnson Flexes His Superman Power (Exclusive) www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/dc-movies-james-gunn-pithces-dwayne-johnson-1235243030/And another prediction. Good or Bad - Black Adam will surpass Aquaman.

I just hope they know what they are doing over there To put it bluntly, if the combined efforts of James Gunn, The Rock and Henry Cavill can't set this ship right… nothing can. Black Adam is poised to become more relevant than Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.

The Rock wants Black Adam to face off against Superman. My guess that Superman film nay be used to set that up.

Marvel is Adam's equal in every way (aside from sheer brutality). The fight is between the wizard's two champions. The science vs. magic angle is compelling, but Man of Steel 2 shouldn't revolve around a Black Adam / Superman confrontation. If the Rock is featured prominently in a Superman movie, it will become a Black Adam movie. WB needs to dig into Superman's woefully underutilized rogue's gallery.

And another prediction. Good or Bad - Black Adam will surpass Aquaman. Do you mean at the box office?

Black Adam is poised to become more relevant than Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. James Gunn has Producer credits but he is mainly a Director. The Rock also has Producer credits but we know he is really an actor. Cavill is an actor. To make something as big as the DCEU they need a real Producer who understands the business including the marketing and business side and who can orchestrate many different people and organizations into a shared goal.

It's possible they all just meet up in Shazam 3. That would be ideal. Superman lending Billy an assist against Black Adam would work better for me. An out and out fight between Superman and Black Adam would level the planet and likely leave no clear winner.

You're right, but I think all they're going to get for the foreseeable future is enthusiastic talent. We can also add Reeves to the grocery list.

Whilst the DC Films brand is looking for its own Kevin Feige, “The Batman” filmmaker Matt Reeves is reportedly quietly setting up his own position as something of a Batman czar at the studio.
As we know, Reeves developing a sequel to this year’s “The Batman” which grossed $770.8 million worldwide, and will begin filming a TV series spin-off focusing on Colin Farrell’s “The Penguin” next year.
However, THR reports that Reeves is plotting far more than that. He is reportedly meeting with writers and directors at present to build out both movies and series that will focus on members of Batman rogue’s gallery – undoubtedly the most well-known line-up of villains in all of comics.
Characters ranging from The Scarecrow to Clayface to Professor Pyg among others are all said to be in the very early stages of gestation. What will move forward is not clear, but the success of “Joker” has shown there’s a potential audience there for comic book films based on individual villains.
Previously Reeves signed a major overall deal with Warner Bros. to create and oversee a bunch of projects, including his desire to create a ‘Batverse’ of which “The Batman” was the first step.

It would amuse me if The Rock's ego got him thinking that his Black Adam character should kick the arse of Cavill's Superman and the Cavill fans (who thought The Rock was on their side) turned against him.
