It's time they introduced Superman's most formidable foe...The Underwood.

It seems that everyone must swear fealty to new lord of the manner.
Without exception.

Gunn shares his thoughts on the state of the superhero genre while on a podcast: Joining the Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum podcast, DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn called out both the quantity and the quality of the string of superhero movies that have been released in the last few years. Rosenbaum reminisced on his time playing Lex Luthor in Smallville on the Warner Bros TV Network and The CW, with Gunn chiming in that there are "too many" superhero properties compared to when that show ran from 2001 to 2011: Rosenbaum: "Do you think that there are too many superhero shows and movies? Because I remember when I did 'Smallville', there were none." Gunn: 'Yeah, I do think there’s too many." When asked about what he wants to do about that, Gunn made it clear that the DC team isn't "going to overextend [itself]" and will make sure that every movie and TV show brings the quality that fans expect: "But I don’t think it’s… It’s much less a problem of too many. And yes… we’re not going to overextend ourselves at DC. We’re going to be very careful with the product that we put out and making sure everything is as good as it can possibly be." Gunn bluntly noted that creators "have gotten really lazy with their superhero stories," commenting on how so many focus on the chances of making a sequel rather than making the first movie something special that stands out: "But I think that what’s happened is, people have gotten really lazy with their superhero stories. And they have gotten to the place where, 'Oh, it’s a superhero, let’s make a movie about it.' And they make, ‘Oh, let’s make a sequel, because the first one did pretty well,’ and they aren’t thinking about, 'Why is this story special? What makes this story stand apart from other stories? What is the story at the heart of it all? Why is this character important? What makes this story different that it fills a need for people in theaters to go see? Or on television?'" He also got specific and pointed out that the "third acts of superhero films" he's seen recently don't make a lot of sense or have a lot of "reason to what’s happening," leading to him not caring so much about the characters: "And I think that it’s just that… people have gotten a little lazy and there’s a lot of biff, pow, bam stuff happening in movies and I’m watching third acts of superhero films where I really just don’t feel like there’s a rhyme or reason to what’s happening… I don’t care about the characters. And they’ve gotten too generic." Gunn sees a number of "middle-of-the-road" kinds of movies that don't utilize very many "different genres," wanting to see something other than "the same story told over and over again:" "There’s this sort of middle-of-the-road, type of genre/tone that so many superhero movies have as opposed to having very different genres. I mean, I like very serious superhero movies, I like very comedic superhero movies, I like ones that are a murder mystery but it’s with superheroes. I like to see these different types of stories, as opposed to seeing the same story told over and over again. I don’t know how many times I… I don’t want to go off on anything…" thedirect.com/article/dc-superhero-movies-recent-lazy

Now there's a man that knows how to dodge a tomato to the face… or several.

James Gunn said his inclusion of multiple heroes for Superman: Legacy does not mean a new Justice League movie is happening just yet. Honestly, I see him signing off on something like the Outsiders first.

“During a time, during ‘Suicide Squad,’ when the dailies were coming in, people were like ‘Oh shit, maybe Ayer’s going to take over DC,'” Ayer said. “It’s ‘Game of Thrones’ in there. The palace politics were insane.”

I think he's strongly hinting that he plans to highjack Jim's parking space.
