The guy that had the bright idea of rebooting the DCEU with THE FLASH and had BATGIRL as his baby project almost quit when David Zaslav shelved the movie.
His other projects for the reboot were SUPERGIRL, WONDER TWINS, BLUE BEETLE, BLACK CANARY, and the black SUPERMAN reboot.
Everyone is feeling that Black Adam is going to underperform. I feel that David Zaslav is keeping Walter Hamada just so that he can get the blame for that.
Chase Walker
that was before he was hired
Jace Collins
Just a fun fact for those not from Any Forums. He got kicked out of a supermarket for taking pics of cereal boxes and posting them on twitter, which unnerved some shoppers. Hence the name, Geoff "Cereal Lord" Johns.
Josiah Ortiz
i mean zaslav literally only took over this april, none of their upcoming movies were greenlit or even made under him
Blake Cruz
That was when Ben Affleck was trying to do The Batman project, this back in 2017. Hamada was already hired by then. Remember that Hamada first project under DC Films was Shazam.
Xavier Perry
hamada was hired in 2018
Jonathan Wilson
The announcement was made in 2018, you mean.
Nathaniel Diaz
why is the DCU such shit
Ryan Baker
Goddamn, man. The Zack Snyder curse is some serious shit.
>almost quit >wasn't fired What the fuck is this timeline?
Andrew Cox
His contract ends October. So he has to option of sticking around or quitting. He opted to stick around. Probably thinks that with Black Adam being a huge success he can leverage himself a good position somewhere else. You can bet that he will milk this Batgirl news for pity points as well.

>batfleck wanted paul dini or bruce timm What an idiot know how to make a good cartoon and how to make a good movie are completely different skils.
Juan Rivera
Everyone praised Affleck script, though.
Michael Ross
isn't Geoff Johns the DC guy that released some awful "event" comics and turned Green Lantern Corps into power rangers?
Brandon Hill
Exactly. Johns has been a blight on DC Comics since 2004.
Leo Gonzalez
I fucking love how there is a war between The Hollywood Reporter reporter Kim Masters, that is on the Snyder camp, and Rolling Stone reporter (that used to work on THR before) Tatiana Siegel, who's on the Hamada camp.
