A DC fan confronted Gunn with a recording of Snyder answering the massive query at Full Circle relating to his curiosity in persevering with the Snyderverse, both with WBD or a third get together like Netflix. Snyder mentioned, “in fact,” in a heartfelt response describing how a lot the mythology of the DC Universe, the quantity of labor he’s put into creating it, and the followers imply to him. The DC Studios CEO fired again in opposition to the DC fan on Threads, stating, “I’d suppose it was apparent that Zack hadn’t expressed any curiosity to ME in our discussions, so you possibly can stop spamming this on each single submit!”

Nevertheless, the query stays, would Gunn approve Snyder’s need to direct one other DC movie if Snyder did attain out, or wouldn’t it be just like the assembly between Gunn and Henry Cavill, through which the actor expressed pleasure to fulfill Gunn and focus on the character’s future after Warner Bros. introduced his return as Superman, just for Gunn to tell Cavill that he was moving into a unique course. It’s unlikely that Snyder would search Gunn out since he’s busy with Insurgent Moon at Netflix and presumably due to how earlier WB executives mistreated him and his artwork after his household tragedy through the manufacturing of Justice League. Nevertheless, Snyder has beforehand said that his door is open and has “no complaints” with WB or Gunn.
