James Gunn and Peter Safran Are Exiting DC Studios

Let the madness begin. We’ve just learned that James Gunn and Peter Safran, who have been co-CEOs of DC Studios since 2023, are stepping down from their roles as of December 1. They’ll be replaced by Jeremy Latcham, a former Marvel Studios executive who helped Kevin Feige build that universe in the early days.

Gunn took to Threads to confirm the information and offer some thoughts. “What only the closest people to me have known over the past four years is my time at DC Studios has been trying to say the least,” Gunn’s statement reads in part. “I dislike the at-times corporate nature of the job (thanks to Peter for taking the brunt of that). I’m always a very hard worker, but as a filmmaker I would at least get to take short breaks to unwind, and I’ve stolen even that time from both myself and my loved ones over the past four years.” You can read the rest of it here.

“James and Peter launched a new era for DC Studios and led it through a period of real transformation, resetting the foundation and building a slate we’re incredibly proud of,” Skydance chairman and CEO David Ellison and co-CEO Ynon Kreiz said in a statement received by the Hollywood Reporter. “We’re grateful for their passion, contributions and commitment to this legendary brand.”

Gunn also mentioned that he and Safran are not done with DC. “We have Man of Tomorrow out this summer, and we’ve just been engaged on another DC project which I’m writing, and we’ll see where it goes after that,” he said.
