James Gunn says Supergirl is the next DCU movie after Superman because of its "incredible script": "Other movies have been written, but they haven't been as good as this one"

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.

James Gunn has doubled down on his key DC Studios philosophy when discussing Supergirl's early placement in DCU Chapter One: quality is king, regardless of the overarching universe's story.

“I didn’t necessarily know that Supergirl would be the second movie we were going to make, but Ana [Nogueira] wrote an incredible script, and then we hired an incredible director. We’re going to do this movie after Superman because he was the best option," Gunn told Omelete.
