James Gunn reveals the surprising DC hero who was the MOST requested for a DCU debut after he asked fans who they wanted to see the most: Booster Gold 👀 'I'm not creating stories by public vote, but I found it fascinating nevertheless.'
James Gunn reveals which DC hero fans most want to see join the DC Universe, and the answer might be a bit surprising. Now that Gunn is co-CEO of DC Studios, he is working with Peter Safran to map out what the future holds for the shared universe. This includes figuring out what audiences want to see from the next slate of DC movies and TV shows. While this will include using characters that are already established in the DCU, Gunn has also been open about teasing new characters who could join.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The DC Studios co-CEO previously used social media to ask fans who they want to see join the DCU. James Gunn's new DCU characters plan included asking the massive fandom which hero who has not already had their own movie/show they want to see join the DCU. The responses included some unsurprising suggestions like Batfamily members Batgirl and Nightwing, but they were not the most popular suggestion.
Booster Gold's DCU introduction could happen rather easily thanks to the upcoming slate of DC movies. 2023 sees the release of Blue Beetle, starring Xolo Maridueña as Jaime Reyes. In the comics, Blue Beetle and Booster Gold are often portrayed as best friends when Ted Kord is in the Blue Beetle mantle.
The chances of seeing Booster Gold in the DCU could also be aided by his status as a Justice League member in the comics. With James Gunn potentially needing to introduce a new version of the team, Booster Gold could be one of the new DC heroes to join the Justice League roster. Considering the character is primed for a comedic adaptation, Gunn could decide to use Booster Gold as a way to add some more levity to the DCU.
