DC Animation May Find a New Home on Amazon

In the wake of HBO’s new management slashing the Warner Bros. Animation division and its reveals on HBO Max and Cartoon Network, the potential of DC animation discovering new life on different streamers has been floated as a super end result. That could now be occurring, with slightly assist from Amazon.

According to a report on Deadline, the chairwoman and CEO of Warner Bros. Television Studios, Channing Dungey, mentioned this chance at Content London, asserting that the studio is contemplating organising store beginning with DC franchises on different streamers. “With animation we used to be about staying in-house but now we are doing it on different platforms. HBO Max is the first stop but we are in the process of closing a big deal with Amazon featuring DC branded content in animation,” she stated.

Probably not coincidentally, head of DC movies, TV, and animation James Gunn tweeted “making plans” at this time. He would know what’s greatest for animation as he’s been animated as himself on HBO Max’s Harley Quinn present.

In a joint assertion with DC co-head Peter Safran when their roles had been introduced, Gunn shared: “We look forward to collaborating with the most talented writers, directors, and actors in the world to create an integrated, multilayered universe that still allows for the individual expression of the artists involved. Our commitment to Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Harley Quinn, and the rest of the DC stable of characters is only equaled by our commitment to the wonder of human possibility these characters represent. We’re excited to invigorate the theatrical experience around the world as we tell some of the biggest, most beautiful, and grandest stories ever told.”

With different WB animated franchise fates at stake like The Looney Tunes, the Tiny Toons reboot, Gremlins: Secret of the Mogwai, and different Cartoon Network favorites, we hope to see extra than simply DC characters discover new life elsewhere.
