James Gunn talked about the title change of "Superman: Legacy", he removed the suffix "Legacy", and the title of the film became "Superman" directly. Gunn's move was somewhat controversial, and some people supported Gunn, believing that it would be better to keep the title of the universe movie down. Some fans felt that the president of DC Pictures was abusing his private rights, because most of the creative staff at DC Studios agreed with the original title, and Gunn did not respect the opinions of most of the filmmakers. Coogler stands for Gunn! Ryan Kugler, the director of "Black Panther", gave an exclusive interview to Kolzy, and he strongly supported Gunn's actions, and the title of the superhero series should not be too long. Coogler revealed that he wanted Black Panther: Long Live Wakanda to remove the suffix, but the Marvel team disagreed with his idea because Wakanda Forever needed to commemorate Bosman.
It is precisely because Coogler has the same experience as Gunn that he strongly supports Gunn's operation! Kaulzi and Kugler also talked about Gunn's plans, and he hopes Joe Watts will direct the DC superhero series. From what Kaulzi learned, the director of "No Way Home" is indeed interested in some DC comic book adaptations - Jowats is interested in "Black Adam". Gunn wanted Joe Watts to direct DC's superhero series, which was undoubtedly a very attractive plan. Joe Watts is an acclaimed film director, and his addition will undoubtedly bring new energy and creativity to DC's superhero franchise. In the eyes of film critics, Joe Watts' interest in Black Adam shows that he has a deep understanding and unique insight into the characters in DC Comics.
Some will say that even if "Black Adam" can pique the interest of the former director of "Spider-Man", there is still no hope that "Black Adam" will enter the process of reshooting. As we all know, Dwayne Johnson has terminated his contract with Warner, and if Gunn wants to restart the "Black Adam" project, they first have to find an actor to replace "The Rock". Kaulzi also admitted that the actors of the new version of "Superman" are easier to find, after all, Henry Cavill's predecessors are still the skeletons of ordinary people, but Dwayne Johnson is not an ordinary person's appearance. Even if "Black Adam" is expected to create a sequel, you must know that the box office of the first series did not meet expectations, and DC Pictures lost money for it, and the sequels will not be invested on a large scale in the future. For example, in "Wonder Woman" and "Aquaman", they believe that these characters also have great potential, and this is what Jo Watts needs to consider.
The MCU working group refused to remove "Long Live Wakanda", in fact, this was Kevin Feige's decision, but Coogler is not the president, and Kevin Feige is the boss of the film industry, so in terms of the title, Coogler alone does not count. The structure of DC Studios is reversed, and Gunn and Safran do have a lot of decisions on things, but Coogler believes that Gunn will still take into account the opinions of others, rather than just say what ** is subjected to. And after Warner experienced "Aquaman", Zaslav also understood the problem of many people, too many people put forward opinions, but it will reduce the details of the work, and it will also cause the film industry to hesitate in many aspects, and the pre-shooting front is very long, increasing costs and disclosures. Now that Zaslav has left Gunn alone, at least a lot of trouble can be avoided, which is also one of the ways to reduce costs, and Kugler strongly supports the way DC Pictures operates.
And Kugler hinted at the second series of "Black Panther", and there was a matter where the title could not be determined, and Marvel Studios fell into internal friction because of this. The author (complacently watching the movie) believes that Boseman's death was so sudden that the plan for "Black Panther" needed to be reformulated in the short term. At that time, Kevin Feige was also the first two big, and he had to unite the members of the production team, after all, Kugler also admitted that the cast of "Black Panther" was very united, and after they learned of Boseman's death, many people had to quit the Marvel crew early. On the other hand, the film industry also needs to appease the sad fans, and the management understands that no matter what decision they make, there will be people who say that the Marvel team is eating "human blood steamed buns". If Disney had been able to give Kugler some decision-making power at the time, maybe things wouldn't have been so troublesome.
It can be seen that there are good reasons for Coogler to support Gunn! And Coogler is also very envious of the operating model of rival films, and if Kevin Feige does not change these problems, many creators will be lost. After all, DC Studios not only has to reboot "Superman", it is said that even "Justice League" has been included in the reboot process, and Gunn needs a large number of creators. So can Joe Watts direct the DC superhero series? Kaulzi believes that in fact, when "Spider-Man" completely abandoned Joe Watts, the young director already had the possibility of joining rival films. Since he's interested in Black Adam, it's up to him to see if the series can get into the plan for a reboot.
