I think somebody put that there afterwards. But I haven’t seen all those things, but they weren’t something that came across my desk.”<\/p>\n Gunn also revealed there’s a person “in charge of the DCU Bible” in order to keep “everything consistent and making sure that the cities are the same and the maps are the same and the celebrities are the same, all the stuff that they need to keep consistent.”<\/p>\n “And I don’t think he’s OK\u2019d all the art department stuff on that movie,” he concluded, advising fans not to get their hopes up over those maps of Gotham City.<\/p>\n A few weeks ago, Gunn already addressed the Batman insignia<\/a>, saying: “Although the trash can is from the set I have a hard time believing the bat was put there by the art department, but if so it never came across my desk (I don’t have time to ok every piece of set dressing.)”<\/p>\n Directed by James Watkins and starring Tom Rhys Harries and Naomi Ackie, the upcoming Clayface movie is one of the first films of DCU Chapter One<\/a>. It’s set to hit cinemas on September 11, 2026, only a few months after Supergirl<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/span><\/div>\n
