James Gunn with Batman from the comics and live-action Superman behind him
Less than a year out from Superman's release, I can't stop thinking about James Gunn's title for the Big Blue Boy Scout's hypothetical crossover with Batman. This Labor Day, Gunn posted a photo of Superman, Batman, and Robin on Instagram wishing followers a"World's Finest Labor Day." Naturally, the comments turned toward the DC Studios co-CEO's work.
James Gunn's Batman & Superman DCU Movie Name Choice Is A Perfect Crossover Film Title The DCU Could Pay Tribute To The Heroes' Comic Legacy Naming a Superman/Batman movie"World's Finest" presents a unique opportunity. Most modern DC films have gone for a grittier tone, to varying results. However, Superman is the kind of character who thrives on positivity. Henry Cavill's portrayal of the character was amazing, but it wasn't what I wanted from Superman.
DCU's Batman & Superman Team-Up Is Sure To Be Different To DC's Entire Movie History A "World's Finest" Movie Would Be Optimistic Close Batman and Superman are opposites, famously so. Their powersets are different, as are their outlooks on life. Naturally, their film adaptations wouldn't have much in common. Watching The Dark Knight and Superman Returns back-to-back might give you whiplash, even though they came out within two years of each other.
A DCU Batman & Superman Movie Doesn't Look Like It'll Happen Soon - But I'm So Excited For When it Could Superman Releases Next Year, Launching The DCU Unfortunately, we won't see a"World's Finest" movie from Gunn anytime soon. The DCU launches later this year with the Creature Commandos series, followed by Superman in 2025. After that, the next few movies include Supergirl, The Brave and the Bold, and Teen Titans, among others.
