James Gunn Discusses DC Universe Team-Up Projects

As the DC Universe takes form under the management of DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran, one of the key things that audiences will look for is how the franchise establishes itself apart from what's been cooking at Marvel Studios over the last 15 years. Having written and directed the "Guardians of the Galaxy" films, Gunn is extremely familiar with how business is done with the MCU, and there are questions about how the DCU will establish itself as a new and different entity.

Obviously, there's a lot that we don't know right now, but one interesting new update that we've learned is that there won't necessarily be 'Avengers'-esque event blockbusters that serve as capstones for different phases of the new canon.
