James Gunn, a prominent filmmaker and the head of DC Studios, has pinpointed a major issue plaguing the film industry: unfinished screenplays. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Gunn stated that it isn't audience preferences or technological advancements in home screens that are causing Hollywood's decline, but rather the rush to produce films without complete scripts.
Speaking about the current state of cinema, Gunn highlighted that many projects are being greenlit without fully developed screenplays. He shared a recent instance where DC Studios had to cancel a film due to script deficiencies, despite high interest and initial approval.
Gunn is currently focused on the upcoming release of his film 'Superman', featuring an ensemble cast including David Corenswet in the lead role. The film is set to hit theaters on July 11, underscoring Gunn's commitment to quality storytelling.
