Amid the various plans in the works at the studio, James Gunn has confirmed that Elseworlds movies are in active development set outside the DC Universe.
James Gunn confirms that Elseworlds movies are in development that are outside the DC Universe. DC Studios is replacing the DC Films division as Gunn and Peter Safran are taking charge of the DCU with TV, film, and animation. The two CEOs had their roles go into effect on November 1, and there have been an endless amount of reports about what they are doing with the DCU.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Gunn has been responding on Twitter to various fans and has shared a few teases about what DC Studios are doing with the DCU. One fan recently asked Gunn if he is "producing any Elseworlds DC projects that aren't set in the DCU?" under his DC Studios era. It didn't take long for Gunn to reply back with a positive answer.
Even though they have never called it Elseworlds, this labeling essentially applies to The Batman and Joker, as they are standalone franchises outside the DCU. While a shared universe is obviously something they are going for, with multiple The Batman spinoffs in the works and Joker 2 now filming, DC has also thrived when they do independent and self-contained movies and shows.
DC has always succeeded as a comic book brand when they allow stories to exist both within and outside main continuities. It gives various audience groups a chance to find something that connects with them personally if something else in the brand isn't for them.
