What New DC Studios Boss Jeremy Latcham’s Past Comments and Films Suggest About the Future of the DCU

Once I absorbed the shock of James Gunn and Peter Safran’s exit from DC Studios – I’d literally just interviewed Safran about DC’s future film and TV slate two weeks ago – I started researching Jeremy Latcham, the incoming President and Chief Creative Officer of DC Studios.

I’m sure my path must have crossed with Latcham’s in the past either during his stint at Marvel Studios or when he served as a producer on Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves or Bad Times at the El Royale.

Latcham started at Marvel in 2004 when Avi Arad still ran the show and Kevin Feige was a top deputy. Latcham eventually rose to become Marvel’s Senior Vice President of Production and Development.

He served as an associate producer on Iron Man, a co-producer on Iron Man 2, and an executive producer on The Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Spider-Man: Homecoming. That 2017 film was Latcham’s final Marvel project, when he left for an overall production deal with 20th Century Studios.

Gunn and Latcham worked together on Guardians of the Galaxy. Indeed, by Gunn’s own admission, Latcham was the creative exec who hired him to write and direct his first MCU film. Watch this resurfaced clip below of Gunn and Latcham on the red carpet for Guardians recounting how they began working together.

Also: It's worth pointing out that Jeremy Latcham was one of the guys that hired James Gunn for Guardians of the Galaxy.
