After taking over DC Studios in 2022, James Gunn and Peter Safran are going to be replaced by a former Marvel exec.
Soon, James Gunn and Peter Safran will no longer head up Skydance’s DC Studios. After taking the helm of DC Studios as co-CEOs in 2022 , Gunn and Safran are being replaced by former Marvel SVP of Production and Development Jeremy Latcham, Deadline reports .
However, Gunn and Safran will “continue to produce on various DC projects” and are still working on the Superman followup Man of Tomorrow , Deadline says. Gunn also posted on Instagram that he and Safran have “just been engaged on another DC project which I’m writing.” In his Instagram post, Gunn said that his time at DC Studios has been “trying, to say the least. I dislike the at-times corporate nature of the job (thanks to Peter for taking the brunt of that).”
The change in leadership follows the recent closure of the megamerger between Paramount and Warner Bros., which resulted in the combined Skydance company that’s led by CEO David Ellison. Latcham takes over DC Studios on December 1st and will report to Dana Goldberg and Josh Greenstein, the co-chairs of Skydance Motion Picture Group.
