He's in Fantastic Beasts.

aah you're right I totally forgot he was in that. Still, would he really have the clout to be vocal about the interpretation of the character? He was cast so long ago too.

If he's aligned with Johns....

[Jonwo]

DC Rebirth has been hugely successful and i imagine WB hopes Johns can do the same for the DCEU. Losing Famuyiga is not good but it seems the split is amicable, the new director must be announced soon, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a clash of visions similar to what happened with Michelle MacLaren on Wonder Woman.

Would Ezra Miller even have control over how the character is portrayed? Like what is he known for? He's not a big name in anyway. All I know him from is We need to talk about Kevin and Perks where he was a supporting character. 

 

I don't see how. He's not a star who's name can green light a $150m+ movie and this isn't a Reynolds/Deadpool 2 situation.

[The Futurist]

Sure Ezra Miller is calling the shots on a 150M superhero blockbuster.

 

That makes perfect sense.

Studios generally likes to keep healthy relationships with talented people and maybe that was the last straw, one of many factors for Famuyiwa leaving. Not buying that 4chan shit either, but it could have happened. And since the Flash in the Justice League footage was so well received, I'm willing to believe that he could have more clout than say Famuyiwa.

LOL the 4chan post was posted on 4CHAN by an anonymous person. Anything it says is not believable. And it's so obviously predicable of a site like 4chan.

He's doing a pretty good job with the comics right now.

 

Johns is good, as long as he isn't doing the Trinity. aside from them, he's good.

total bullshit. lol

[Spidey Freak]

LMAO @ the thought of Geoff Johns, whom the anti-SJW crowd has accused of being too PC himself, being the one to stall these ideas. 4chan seems to be made up of alt-right rumor generating bots apparently. *Black director leaves* bzzt *Must have been too PC*

The DC cinematic universe just can't catch a break. A real shame!

 

To be fair, not many folks were exactly enthused with Famuyiwa getting the gig. And Famuyiwa in turn was an improvement over Seth-Grahaeme. There are chances the next person is even better.

 

I really hope Kiersey Clemmons stays on though.

Yeah, he's far from perfect but with the exception of a few characters here and there (like Diana) he does GET them

 

And recently he even admitted to interpreting Diana wrong and that from now on his depictions of the character would be heavily influenced by the George Perez and Phil Jimenez versions.

Well that's one of looking at the situation, I suppose.

 

As for Clemmons, I think she'll stick around unless she's not pleased about Famuyiwa leaving.

Yeah, I don't think she will leave, not of her own volition anyway. Unfortunately there aren't many female lead roles for POCs in blockbusters and she was aware of the social media noise surrounding her casting in the first place. Unlikely she'd decline it now just because Famuyiwa left.

I'm fine with her casting. As long as she's playing a good character, I'd be pleased. Her race should have little to do with it.

[bapi]

The Flash needs to be fun and inspiring so for me Michael Dowse would be a good candidate.
