But then the person you hire is not necessarily the best person you get for the job because you did not go through an audition process. Do not get me wrong. Brian Cranston got Walter White because of an episode of X-files he did with Vince Gilligan but there are pros and cons to either method.
@@henrypeters5291 so many directors do this man. Scorsese, Tarantino, Wes Anderson, Kurosawa, Coen Brothers, Nolan, Spielberg, anyone who wants to single out Gunn for doing this is willfully ignorant of just how common this is.
Warner Bros totally messed up the DCEU. I have absolutely no desire for another full reboot of DC on film, especially led by Gunn. *Henry Cavill is Superman.*
@@kadiriolanipekun6486 , and he had a great run on CW. Warner Bros did not meddle with Superman Returns; that film was truly poorly received and didn't make money.
There's a differemce between hiring someone who you know how to direct and can be confident will perform well and hiring someone just because you know them.
It’s taking so long for the new DC universe to get going , I think most people have forgotten about it. The only big DC movie in the last few years is Batman and that was elseworlds title. The penguin is good though it’s from that same elseworld universe not the main story line for dc
So does Christopher Nolan, Tim Burton, Quentin Tarantino, Judd Apatow, and Tyler Perry. Hell, Adam Sandler has made a career basically making moves as a Tax write off so him and him buddies can go on vacation. He’s admitted this. It’s Hollywood. This ain’t new.
If your building something new and need to stick the landing you work with people you know you can work with and trust and it’s as simple as that

@@JimbyThaDoodTim Burton build his entire reputation on casting Johnny Depp and his wife in all his films
@@Linklex7 yuuup
Looking forward to “Scared” hope they are still going to do this🙂
Awesome interview!
Yeah and then there is Christopher Nolan who casts the same guy in every film he makes but they don't talk about.. hypocrites
Do you both live in Oregon?
Yeah every director does this.
Adam sandler and Kevin Smith have their core people
Please Grant Gustin play The Flash in James Gunn's DCU!
Not going to happen

The right question is "which big actor in Hollywood wants to work with James Gunn ?"
When you know why he got fired from Disney.
The comic book movie thing is over.
Warner Bros totally messed up the DCEU. I have absolutely no desire for another full reboot of DC on film, especially led by Gunn.
*Henry Cavill is Superman.*
Henry is one of the Superman’s
@kadiriolanipekun6486 , Henry is alive and is not old. *Henry is Superman.*
@@sovereignty14 Superman isn’t just one person. Brandon Routh is also still alive and not old
@@kadiriolanipekun6486 , and he had a great run on CW. Warner Bros did not meddle with Superman Returns; that film was truly poorly received and didn't make money.
DC has been rebooted over and over and over again. Henry isn't the only Superman, nor is he even the most faithful.
Nepotism at it best
Right, but no one says anything about Tarantino, Scorsese, Coppola or Nolan
Ion think you know what that word means
@@blackspiderman4766except that's exactly what nepotism is , guess you're the one who font know what that word means...
Thank you!!!!! But Will Smith puts his son in a movie and everyone loses their minds and call nepotism !!!!!

This is why this new universe is literally nothing but a joke becuase he just casting everybody that goes to his bbq cook out at this point
He’s similar to Tim burton who’s movies got a bit stale for a long time he just cast his friends
