Today is earnings day for the newly formed Warner Bros. Discovery so CEO David Zaslav addressed many questions and concerns regarding the path forward for the 4-month-old company.
One of the hottest topics the executive needed to address was the state of their DC movie-verse in light of the recent canceling of the BATGIRL movie.
THR reports:
“You look at Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman — these are brands that are known everywhere in the world,” Zaslav said during an earnings call Thursday. “We have done a reset. We’ve restructured the business where we are going to focus, where there is going to be a team with a 10-year plan focusing just on DC. We believe we can build a much more sustainable business.”“It’s very similar to the structure Alan Horn, [former Disney CEO] Bob Iger and Kevin Feige put together very effectively at Disney. We think we can build a much stronger, sustainable growth business out of DC,” said Zaslav. “As part of that, we are going to focus on quality. We are not going to release any film before it’s ready. … DC is something we can make better.”
“We are very excited about [Black Adam, Shazam 2, and The Flash]. We’ve seen them. We think they are terrific, and we think we can make them even better,”
Beyond this, no further information about this new 10-year DC plan was revealed... just the concept of it.
