No, DCU Batman Hasn’t Been Cast

Responding to a fan question asking if the new DCU Batman has already been cast, Gunn replied simply:

“Nope.”

That confirms the role is still open, despite recent online chatter claiming otherwise.

Wonder Woman Story Details Are Locked Down

On the Wonder Woman reboot currently in development, Gunn made it clear that nobody outside a small inner circle knows what’s happening with the script:

“Anything you’ve heard about that movie is made up or a guess. No one in the world knows anything about the concept for the story except four people.”

Hush Rumors for The Batman Part II Are Also False

With rumors suggesting the villain Hush could appear in Matt Reeves’ The Batman Part II, Gunn shut that down too:

“Again everything you’ve heard is a total guess or made up.”

The sequel is still set for an October 1, 2027 release.

Superman’s “Home Videos” Aren’t Kryptonian Tech

Finally, Gunn responded to speculation about a scene at the end of Superman involving the Kents being filmed — with some assuming the footage was tied to Kryptonian technology or surveillance drones:

“They’re just home videos!”

That small detail appears to be nothing more than a human touch, not an Easter egg for future plot points.
