Somewhere between reverence and rebellion, James Gunn has begun rebuilding the DC Universe like an heirloom machine restored for modern roads. David Corenswet assumed the Superman mantle, a recalibrated Batman waits in the wings, and every creative choice hums with intention.

 Speculation crackled louder with each update, curiosity sharpening into obsession, all roads pointing toward one question, until James Gunn finally put a firm stop to the Wonder Woman casting speculation circling Man of Tomorrow.

Answering questions on Threads, James Gunn stepped in to cool the growing speculation with measured clarity. He rejected claims of Batman and Wonder Woman auditions, pointing out that recent focus centered on Brainiac instead.

Most significant roles, he explained, involve characters already introduced, with only smaller parts currently being cast. He did confirm a new female role in Man of Tomorrow, noting that repeated guessing often fuels rumors more than facts.

James Gunn also addressed a wide range of DC chatter, shutting down speculation piece by piece. According to his response, there will be no updates on The Brave and the Bold until its script is complete, while Dynamic Duo remains untouched and moving smoothly.

Gunn also reportedly dismissed theories linking Wonder Woman to Batman projects and signaled that a Clayface trailer remains months away, reinforcing a strategy rooted in patience rather than noise. Yet amid the denials, he did quietly confirm a notable casting development tied to Man of Tomorrow.
