The new James Gunn-directed DC Universe movie Superman hits a domestic box office milestone that is a rarity for films based on DC comics.

Rather than pushing through projects that aren't ready, it seems the Guardians of the Galaxy director isn't afraid to axe bad scripts. This might be an encouraging sign for fans, especially those who were dissatisfied with the peaks and valleys of DC's previous shared universe.

James Gunn, co-head of DC Studios and director of the recently released Superman, has confirmed he is now focused on writing a new film that features the Man of Steel.
