This week, Skydance, the new parent company of Warner Bros. Discovery, stunned Hollywood by ousting DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn (pictured below, right) and Peter Safran. The shake-up immediately sent the internet into a frenzy, with outlets racing to uncover more details behind their abrupt exits. Several reports claimed Skydance had already screened "Man of Tomorrow," the follow-up to "Superman," and was unhappy with the current cut. The company was also rumored to be demanding sweeping story changes and even looking to remove several scenes setting up the future of the DC Universe.

Gunn has now taken to Threads to shut down those claims, saying Skydance executives have not even seen "Man of Tomorrow." "There are a lot of false rumors going around right now, including one claiming Skydance has seen 'Man of Tomorrow' and is making all kinds of major changes to the film," Gunn wrote. "The truth is, no one at Skydance has seen the movie. The only people who have watched it are Peter Safran and a very small group of trusted friends and family. So any reporting that says otherwise is false."
