Despite months of radio silence, James Gunn says that Booster Gold and the Wonder Woman-adjacent show compared to Game of Thrones are still happening at DC
Paradise Lost is in "extreme development"
The DCU is, as they say, booked and busy. James Gunn and Peter Safran's fledgling universe at DC Studios currently contains Creature Commandos, Peacemaker, and Superman – with Supergirl and Clayface still to come this year.
