Skydance has ousted James Gunn and Peter Safran as co-chairmen of DC Studios, installing former Marvel executive Jeremy Latcham as its new chief creative officer.
Skydance Motion Picture Group announced the change on Nov. 9, with Latcham set to assume the role on Dec. 1, overseeing film, television and animation.
Gunn and Safran will continue as producers, finishing the Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow, scheduled for July 2027. Their four-year tenure began in 2022 with a reboot of the DC universe; the 2025 Superman film earned $618.7 million worldwide, while later releases such as Supergirl underperformed.
The leadership shift marks the third rebranding of the DC franchise in 13 years, as Skydance seeks to build a cohesive universe under Latcham's creative direction.
