Now that James Gunn is directing his own Superman reboot movie as co-CEO DC Films, he says there's room for both his vision and a previously announced Superman movie written by longtime Black Panther comic writer Ta-Nehisi Coates and produced by JJ Abrams.
"Those two things are totally unrelated," Gunn told io9. "That’s an exciting movie. I know that Chantal Nong, who is the executive on that project, is extremely excited about it. So if it comes in and it’s great, which I haven’t read the script, and if the timing is right, that could absolutely happen. That's totally unrelated. It would be an Elseworlds tale like Joker."
