James Gunn is addressing the 'disrespectful outcry' in wake of the many changes taking place in the DC Extended Universe.
and said he and his DC Studios co-chairman, the British film producer Peter Safran, were aware at the time they took the job as heads of DC Studios that there would be"a certain minority of people online that could be, well, uproarious & unkind, to say the least."
Gunn added that"our choices for the DCU are based upon what we believe is best for the story & best for the DC characters who have been around for nearly 85 years. Perhaps these choices are great, perhaps not, but they are made with sincere hearts & integrity & always with the story in mind." He continued,"No one loves to be harassed or called names — but, to be frank, we’ve been through significantly worse. Disrespectful outcry will never, ever affect our actions. We were aware there would be a period of turbulence when we took this gig, & we knew we would sometimes have to make difficult & not-so-obvious choices, especially in the wake of the fractious nature of what came before us.
Johnson added that"DC and Seven Bucks have agreed to continue exploring the most valuable ways Black Adam can be utilized in future DC multiverse chapters."
