DCU Chapter 1 "Gods and Monsters" Breakdown and Discussion

Your favorite nerds go in-depth on all the news that was dropped for Chapter 1 of the DCU "Gods and Monsters"



The DC Universe (DCU) is an upcoming American media franchise produced by DC Studios, and based on characters appearing in DC Comics publications. It is intended as a spiritual successor[a] to the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), with specific continuity details such as certain characters (and their actors) and storylines being acknowledged from the prior franchise. The DCU will include animation, video games, and content in other mediums which will share continuity with the films and television series in the franchise.

James Gunn and Peter Safran were hired to succeed Walter Hamada as the co-chairmen and CEOs of the restructured DC Studios beginning November 2022. That month, the pair began development on a rebooted slate of films intended for rejuvenating interest in the cinematic iterations of various DC characters, including re-envisioning major properties that had been stuck in development hell and de-prioritized in the later years of the DCEU.

DC Studios will release their projects in "Chapters" revolving around contained story arcs. Chapter One of the DCU, subtitled "Gods and Monsters", will begin with the animated series Creature Commandos (TBA), while the film Superman: Legacy (2025) is set to introduce the chapter's overarching narrative.
