James Gunn’s spent the past few weeks talking about why he agreed to do Superman, and he’s also taking time to address the awkward part: agreeing to do it at the apparent expense of Henry Cavill’s superhero comeback.

Superman gave Clark Kent back his heart, but did James Gunn give our staffers back their hope for his comic world?

James Gunn and Peter Safran’s evolving DC movie universe already has several key characters locked in, including Superman, Supergirl, Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, and Lobo, just to name a few.

While the latest version of the Man of Steel might be ushering in a new and promising era for the DC Universe, James Gunn recently spoke out about the monumental mix-up that was made near the end of the previous one, which saw Henry Cavill briefly return as Superman, only to take off the cape for good.

Now that Superman is performing well at the box office, buoyed by positive word of mouth and critic reviews, James Gunn is admitting that there was a lot riding on the film's success.

James Gunn says that the DCU's Batman villain 'Clayface' movie with be a 'complete horror film,' following the success of the lighter 'Superman.'

James Gunn is still basking in the glow of Superman, the first movie of the new DC Universe. After opening in theaters last weekend, the Warner Bros. release jockeyed the "superhero fatigue" discourse to rake in a cumulative total of $177.
