Jeremy Latcham will become DC Studios' president and chief creative officer, replacing James Gunn and Peter Safran as the studio's leaders. Skydance announced the appointment on Monday, 9 November, ending the pair's four-year leadership of the studio. Latcham is due to take up the role on 1 December.
Skydance said Gunn and Safran would return to full-time creative work rather than continue as studio executives. They are expected to remain involved in filmmaking and producing. Skydance Chairman and CEO David Ellison and Co-CEO Ynon Kreiz said in a statement that they looked forward to working with Latcham to build the next generation of DC storytelling and strengthen the company's commitment to fans.
