Journalists inquired about the recurring speculation that Robert Pattinson might portray Batman in the DCU, to which Gunn and Safran responded. Gunn made it clear, “It’s not at all part of our plans.” He agreed as Safran complimented Pattinson while simultaneously dismissing this particular rumor.
James Gunn shared that he’s immersed in editing “Peacemaker” and simultaneously working on “Superman”, expressing his excitement about the ongoing production. He mentioned that John Cena, who plays Peacemaker (Christopher Smith), has shown remarkable growth as an actor during the second season. Gunn was impressed by Cena’s performance in the first season and noted that it surpassed expectations. He further stated that Cena developed significantly more in season two, delivering a truly exceptional performance along with the rest of the talented cast, hinting at even deeper layers to Cena’s portrayal.
At the press conference, Gunn openly discussed the challenges encountered in developing “The Authority”. He acknowledged that this project has been particularly difficult due to changes in the overall storyline and ensuring its alignment with “The Boys”, as well as other projects influenced by “The Authority” that emerged following its initial release. This honest disclosure marks a stark contrast from January 2023, when Gunn eagerly unveiled the project as part of the DCU’s initial lineup, labeling it as one of his most heartfelt projects at the time.
