Gunn on Superman wouldn't be any worse than Snyder on Superman. I think Gunn would have done a fine job on Superman because he's a comic book nerd and I'm sure it would have been fun. Plus Gunn and his brothers seemingly know the Superman mythos pretty well, as they're doing the black mirror version of the character with "Brightburn."

The trailer for "Brightburn" feel so much like Superman than "Man of Steel" and "Batman v. Superman."

Yeah, but to be fair, IonFan on Superman wouldn't be worse than Snyder. That's not a very high bar.

Could work if they do it in the same vein as a low budget horror movie.

The Wrap: David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick to Write ‘Aquaman’ Sequel

Frequent James Wan collaborator David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick has been tapped to write the “Aquaman” sequel, TheWrap has exclusively learned.

Johnson-McGoldrick co-wrote the first “Aquaman” with Will Beall based on a story by Geoff Johns, Beall, and James Wan.

Wan and Peter Safran are producing.

“Aquaman” has grossed $1.12 billion worldwide, becoming Warner Bros.’ first billion-dollar box office hit since “The Dark Knight Rises” in 2012. It is also the first billion-dollar release from a studio other than Disney or Universal since “Transformers: Age of Extinction” in 2014.

The road to $1 billion began with the film’s release in China on the first weekend of December, when it opened to a studio-record $94 million.

Warner Bros. did a significant reshuffling of their studio’s DC division after the disappointing results of “Justice League,” which served as Aquaman’s big-screen introduction but only made $657 million worldwide despite also featuring Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman.

The news follows last week’s announcement that Warner Bros. is developing an “Aquaman” spinoff “The Trench,” an individual with knowledge of the project told TheWrap. Screenwriters Noah Gardner and Aidan Fitzgerald have been tapped to write “The Trench.”

Johnson-McGoldrick’s credits include “The Conjuring 2” and “The Conjuring 3” along with “Dungeons and Dragons” and “Orphan.”

Johnson-McGoldrick is repped by Paradigm and Behr Abramson Levy

Considering that the trench scene was mostly CGI, I'm not sure how an actual film centered on it could be low budget. For it to be low budget, the movie would probably take place in a cave to avoid costs of CGI ocean and creatures floating around.

It will be interesting to see where they go with the sequel.

The Trench is a pretty cool concept. Curious to see how they pull it off without any principal Aquaman actors.

I have been checking out reviews of Doom Patrol today for the first 2 episodes that went out to the press early. I am hearing almost all good things about it, chiefly (pun intended) that so far DP is a LOT better than Titans. Now I really wish WB had thought to offer this on ps4. At this point I would just fork over 75 bucks for a year subscription and have been done with it.
