    The reasons for the radical Change of scenery in the DC Universe are diverse. Behind the scenes, the company structure has changed in recent years through the merger of the media companies Warner and Discovery. In the course of this, there were also changes in management positions and new goals.

    Under this new leadership, director James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) and producer Peter Safran (Shazam) have been chosen to take on the creative direction of DC Studios. Both are said to play a similar role to Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige and have been given the task of creating a similarly thought out Plan for the future of DC elaborate as the Marvel Cinematic Universe can boast. Warner Bros. Discovery wants to adapt this success for itself.

    Because of this, a line is drawn under the DC era that had begun with Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel. Before we know if this renewal succeeds, we have a few launches this year that sprung from the previous DC regime.
