The DC Animated Universe, which includes iconic shows like Batman: TAS and Justice League, can inspire James Gunn’s newly defined DC Universe.
James Gunn mentioned that the Justice League animated series is an inspiration for his DC Universe , and there are many ways the DCAU can inspire the upcoming franchise. A significant reboot that will very much start a new DC Universe from scratch, DC Studios’ Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters will see new iterations of iconic heroes like Batman, Superman, and the Green Lanterns as well as live-action debuts of characters like Damian Wayne and The Authority.
As exciting as crossovers and interconnectivity are, they only work when there is a solid foundation. The MCU’s Avengers team, for example, was only formed four years after Iron Man. Given that no DCU Justice League project has been announced yet, this new franchise has the chance to take its time with Batman, Superman, and other Justice League heroes before an eventual crossover event.
That seems to be what DC Studios’ DC Universe is doing – at least for Batman, Superman, and the Green Lanterns. The Brave and the Bold will feature Damian Wayne, Batman’s son who becomes Robin, meaning that this universe’s Bruce Wayne is at a later point in his Batman career. Superman: Legacy will feature a younger Clark Kent, yet it will not be an origin story.
