James Gunn Says SGT. ROCK Is Still Marching Forward and Teases Secret Project Project He Feared Would Be Ripped Off — GeekTyrant

Despite reports that Sgt. Rock had been shelved, James Gunn is here to clarify that Easy Company isn't done just yet. In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, the DC Studios co-head gave an encouraging, though cautious, update on the war-themed project, originally set to be directed by Luca Guadagnino with Colin Farrell attached to star. 'I feel like we're in a pretty good place. We're still moving forward, but it's not going to would Peter want me to say here? ... So it's still moving forward, but, yeah, right now it wasn't exactly where I wanted it to be creatively, and so it needs to change a little bit.' So while the original vision may not survive the reshuffle, Gunn makes it clear that Sgt. Rock hasn't been left for dead. That wasn't all Gunn had to say. When asked if there were other projects cooking behind the scenes, he teased something far more mysterious, something he's been keeping under wraps since the very beginning out of fear another studio (cough Marvel) might try to swipe the concept. 'My favorite thing has not been announced at all. One of the scripts people kind of know about. My script people don't know about. The other script people don't know about. 'So it's mostly stuff people don't know about.... A couple of those things [announced in January 2023] are in pretty good shape in terms of coming up, but there was one thing that I knew about from the very beginning, that when I pitched to David Zaslav what the DCU would be, I pitched to him, but we did not announce in that first meeting because I felt like it was too easy to rip off by another company. And so that's one of the main things.' That's the kind of statement that's going to fire up speculation across the fandom. A brand-new idea, so potent and original that it had to be kept hidden? Sounds like the kind of curveball that could define Gunn's DCU if it delivers. For now, we're left to wait and wonder. But between the resurrection of Sgt. Rock and the tease of a secret weapon still under wraps, Gunn's DC universe is clearly still evolving.

Thom Browne Resort 2026 Menswear Collection

The trend forecasters are predicting a prep revival. The all-American look, born of mid-century country clubs and popularized by 1980s movies, seems to be in the air again. A 17-year-old I know sets out each weekend to shop for vintage polo shirts, and Luca Guadagnino is filming a new version of the Bret Easton Ellis novel, American Psycho. That about synthesizes it. If prep does make a comeback on the runways in the coming weeks, it wouldn't surprise Thom Browne. 'I'm always in that world because I love the timelessness of it and the ease,' he says. 'I like the idea of real clothes being worn in real ways, and not clothing that's too precious. And talk about sustainability—you can wear these things forever.' Just don't call it a passing fad. The Thom Browne crests that appear on jackets and coats in his new collections for women and men paint a picture of the prep lifestyle. In their four quadrants are embroidered tennis racquets, a swimmer, an anchor, and 1965, the year Browne was born. Parts of the collections could find their way to country clubs and swimming pool parties, things like an exceptional handknit argyle cardigan, a neat rain jacket in a green technical cordura fabric, any of the bermuda shorts. The jeans, Browne was careful to point out, are made with selvedge denim in the best denim factory in Japan—the only people more obsessive about American style than Browne may be the Japanese; they even have a name for it, Amekaji. But even as he builds out the TB repertoire, Browne is as devoted to and meticulous about tailoring as ever, in particular the gray suit, but also his custom plaid tweeds and silk mogadors. Staying on theme, a gray skirt suit was topped by a maillot-shaped corset, and taking it to only-for-superfans extremes, other suits were intarsia'd or embroidered with trompe l'oeil effect bikinis. In other news, it's the 10th anniversary of the Hector bag, so you'll see many iterations of the dog-shaped bag here. The palladian window prints and embroideries are a nod to Browne's new project, the renovation of an 18th century house in upstate New York that is now underway.

DC's SGT. ROCK Movie Reportedly Isn't Dead Yet, and CLAYFACE Has a Shooting Date — GeekTyrant

Things have been murky around DC Studios' Sgt. Rock project lately, but according to a new report, it might still have a pulse. And while that film's fate hangs in the balance, Clayface seems to be quietly moving forward with a fall production start. Last we heard about Sgt. Rock , DC had put the brakes the film, shelving the film after delays piled up and director Luca Guadagnino shifted over to his new film, Artificial . The World War II-set adventure was reportedly struggling with scheduling, budget concerns, and even some not-so-cooperative British weather. Add Guadagnino's lack of blockbuster experience to the mix, and things weren't looking great. DC Studios co-head James Gunn hasn't said a word publicly about the project's fate. The original goal was to release it sometime in 2025, but that's clearly off the table. Now, insider Daniel Richtman says there's still some hope. According to Richtman, Sgt. Rock is "still happening…for now," though it remains on pause until 2026. The movie was said to follow Sgt. Rock, Mademoiselle Marie, and the Easy Company as they battle Nazis to recover the Spear of Destiny. And while the concept has pulpy potential, fans remain divided, some questioning the need for a period war film in a cinematic universe still trying to establish its big-name heroes. I love the idea, though! Meanwhile, the Clayface movie appears to be further along than expected. Richtman claims cameras will start rolling in September, and the casting process is in full swing. Jack O'Connell, Tom Blythe, George MacKay, and Leo Woodall are reportedly in contention to play the shape-shifting Batman villain. Mike Flanagan, who developed the pitch and wrote the first draft of the script, previously said: "I don't know what they're doing with Clayface . I'm not directing it, and that filmmaker will need to make it their own. "I know that they're doing work on the script. I'm off doing other things now, I really hope it remains true to the spirit of what I wanted it to be. But it's not my movie, so I'll be in the audience with you, anxious to see how it comes out." Still, with Clayface gearing up for production and Sgt. Rock quietly waiting in the wings, DC Studios is clearly keeping its options open as it builds out this next chapter of the DCU.

When the film had to push a full year, Guadagnino moved quickly to find something he could get up and running this year and mulled several options before landing on Artificial.
