Part 7/10:
James Gunn, the new head of DC Studios, is viewed with a combination of excitement and skepticism. His approach to storytelling, emphasizing a hopeful Superman, departs from darker portrayals that have dominated the previous iterations. However, the concerns over his vision are palpable amongst fans who worry that the character may become a pawn in larger political narratives.

Gunn's insistence on presenting a good-hearted protagonist in the face of darker societal voices raises eyebrows, leading many to question whether the character risks being politicized.
