Season 2 of Peacemaker had a big red carpet premiere in LA last night, and James Gunn was asked multiple questions on that red carpet about where next for the DCU. He said the next adventure for Superman is closer than you might think.

He told The Hollywood Reporter:

“I’ve already finished the treatment for the next story in what I’ll call the Superman saga. The treatment’s done, which means a very, very worked out treatment. I’m working on that, and I’m hopefully going into production on that not too far away from today.”

On Peacemaker, he said it is central to the DCU going forward, and all will become clear as the series unfolds:

“We have the setting up of all of the rest of the DCU in this season of Peacemaker, it’s incredibly important. Lots of guest stars coming up, lots of characters that are going to show up that we’ve already met in Superman, and I don’t think there’s anything I’ve ever done that I love more than this season of Peacemaker.”

In a separate interview with EW (as reported by Dark Horizons), he commented on the future for his version of The Suicide Squad. Starting with Harley Quinn / Margo Robbie:

“That will be revealed down the line.”

He also said he is still figuring out how to fit Idris Elba’s Bloodsport into a future project in the DCU.

Superman arrives on PVOD at the end of this week, and physical disc on September 23rd.
