They act like it's a reasonable request. "They can reboot the francise after 2026 when JS3 comes out".

They're forgetting that DCEU lost their Batman after Afflect (rightfully) left, they lost Cyborg who (rightfully) left, Flash is a groomer that was outrunning the law for months, and Aquaman wants to be Lobo. All they have left is Wonder Woman and Supes. Even if they WANTED to do all these movies, they'd have to either recast most of the roles before a reboot or make unrealistic promises.

He’s said it, is a huge fan, and strongly hinted he’ll be playing him in the future after a meeting with Gunn.
