23 Oct
Summary
- Co-CEO James Gunn crafting new DCU with 'Gods and Monsters' slate
- Director Andy Muschietti cautious about sharing details on 'The Brave and The Bold'
- Uncertainty around whether Robin will appear in the upcoming Batman film

As of October 23rd, 2025, the superhero genre continues to captivate audiences, and the DC side of the industry is undergoing significant changes. Co-CEO James Gunn has been crafting a new shared universe, with the first slate of projects titled 'Gods and Monsters.' This announcement included several upcoming DC movies, one of which is Andy Muschietti's 'The Brave and The Bold.'
Muschietti, known for his success in the horror genre and previous DC experience with 'The Flash,' has been careful not to reveal too much about 'The Brave and The Bold.' This caution stems from Gunn's recent comments about the potential inclusion of the iconic character Robin, which have cast doubt on the movie's direction.
In a recent interview, Muschietti tried to provide an update on the film's development, but even discussing the timeline could get him in trouble with the studio. This level of secrecy is not uncommon in the new DCU, as the studio aims to maintain tight control over information.
Despite the countless questions fans have, the Muschiettis' continued involvement in the project is encouraging. As the DCU enters a new era, audiences are eager for information about what's to come, including the future of Batman and his sidekick, Robin.
