    James Gunn’s First Day at New Job: Co-Head of DC Studios

    Mary Anne ButlerBy Updated:1 Min Read

    Ah, the first day at a new job. We’ve all been there- the excitement, the terror, the pressure! You know who’s having one of those days? James Gunn. The filmmaker just started his new gig, as co-head of Warner Bros. Studios’ newly renamed and relanched DC Studios, along with Peter Safran.

    Fandom was generally shocked when the announcement of the division was made. Not surprising really to see Gunn have such a prominent role, having delivered two pretty well lauded projects for WB; “The Suicide Squad” and “Peacemaker.”

    From Henry Cavill‘s return as Superman (he’s pretty excited to meet Gunn, btw) to whatever else is on the docket, we’re actually excited to see what comes of this. And of course, we still have two Gunn-written-and-directed outings from Marvel Studios, “Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special,” and “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.”

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
