One fan on Twitter asked, “[Are] you and your partner planning to give more DC character tv shows that’ll add to the story for the DCEU?” In response, Gunn said, “Yes, most definitely, the DCU will be connected across film and TV (and animation)."[EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/JamesGunn/status/1596921811374964736[/EMBED_TWITTER][EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/JamesGunn/status/1596928191888707584[/EMBED_TWITTER]Another fan then followed up by asking if the video games would connect to the shared universe. In response, Gunn simply said, “Yes.” Gunn is known for taking to Twitter to answer questions without lying about character appearances or cameos. So, it’s safe to say that this is all accurate information, as the director has recently come to terms withclosing the chapter on theGuardians of the Galaxy.However, fans should lower their expectations in terms of seeing every single piece of DC Comics media being connected, as some things will exist in their own universe. Fans shouldn’t expect theBatman Arkhamvideo games to connect toBlack Adam,for example. However, DC could produce a new video game about Hawkman before the events ofBlack Adam, for instance.The beauty in everything connecting is that it builds a shared universe, but it also requires balance because not everything needs to be connected for this to work. Matt Reeves has expressed thatThe Batmandoesn’t connect with any other DC projectsand he is not interested in jumping ship to Marvel because there are more stories to tell in the universe he created with Robert Pattinson, like HBO Max’s Penguin series.MORE:The Presence: 5 Things To Know About The Fictional Creator Of The DC UniverseSource:James Gunn/Twitter
