Skydance Motion Picture Group announced Monday that James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down as co-chief executives of DC Studios after four years of leadership. The move comes as part of a major shake-up following the Skydance takeover of Warner Bros and the Skydance-Paramount merger.
Jeremy Latcham has been named as the new president and chief creative officer of DC Studios. A producer and former protege of Kevin Feige, Latcham is a former Marvel executive who will lead the studio into its next chapter.
Gunn and Safran, who produced Superman and other DC movies and shows, will return full-time to their creative pursuits.
