Warner Bros. Discovery’s CEO, David Zaslav, has been making waves in the entertainment industry by revealing some exciting news during their annual earnings call. The biggest announcement was that fans can expect new The Lord of the Rings movies, but he also talked about the upcoming releases from DC Studios.
Zaslav expressed his excitement for the upcoming DC Studios releases like Shazam! Fury of the Gods, The Flash, and the slate of movies from James Gunn. Although The Flash has had a lot of controversy surrounding it, Zaslav has already seen the film and said he “loved it”.
“I saw it and loved it. It’s a wow. I can’t wait for ‘The Flash’ to hit the theaters in June.”
The Flash is about Barry Allen, a man with superpowers who travels back in time to change the events of the past. However, his actions inadvertently alter the future, leaving him trapped in a reality where there are no superheroes to turn to. He must convince a retired Batman to come out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian to save the world.
Gunn and Safran took over as Co-CEOs of DC Studios last year, and their leadership has been promising for the future of DC. In a joint statement, they expressed their commitment to creating an integrated, multilayered universe that still allows for individual expression from the artists involved. They also look forward to telling some of the biggest, most beautiful, and grandest stories ever told.
Overall, fans of DC can expect some exciting releases in the near future. Shazam! Fury of the Gods is set to release in two weeks, followed by The Flash in June. James Gunn’s slate of movies is also something to look forward to, as his previous work on Guardians of the Galaxy has been well received by audiences and critics alike. With a new leadership team and promising movies in the works, the future of DC Studios is looking bright.
