The MCU is an all-encompassing shared world, however DC Studios’ plans for the DCU really seem much more formidable than Marvel Studios’ large slate of initiatives.
In addition to delivering motion pictures, TV reveals and animated initiatives that each one happen inside the similar world with the identical actors, James Gunn and Peter Safran are prioritising new online game titles. These take for much longer to make than your typical characteristic movie, so it is clearly going to be some time earlier than we get to enter the DCU in probably the most interactive approach potential.
Speaking to DC.com, Gunn supplied new insights into how video games will issue into plans for “Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters.”
“It is not like we’ll have the Superman film come out and have this Superman sport come out,” the DC Studios co-CEO explains. “It is extra like we’ll have the Superman movie come out, then possibly two years later, now we have the Supergirl film popping out. So, what is the story in between there?”
“Is there a Krypto sport that we will play that is available in between them? One thing that is nonetheless set on the planet with these characters, however is its personal factor. We wish to give the prominence to video games that they deserve.”
It is an fascinating choice and one that would show surprisingly divisive. For starters, we’re certain voiceover actors will not be glad about being sidelined for film and tv expertise, whereas the whole lot being set in the identical world…properly, it runs the chance of making fatigue amongst even probably the most hardcore DC followers.
Then again, it is a very thrilling, authentic, idea and one which has the potential to develop the DCU in a approach that not even the MCU has managed since launching in 2008.
There are a variety of what we’re guessing will now be “Elseworlds” video games on the way in which, in fact, together with Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and Monolith Productions’ Marvel Lady.
