- After a lengthy search, DC Studio heads James Gunn and Peter Safran announced The Brave and the Bold in 2023, with Hodson brought on late last year to write it.
- Hodson brings Gotham and blockbuster experience, having written Birds of Prey, The Flash, Bumblebee, and an unproduced Batman Beyond script that impressed insiders, while Andy Muschietti remains attached but timing-dependent.
- It remains unclear how far along the script is, with sources saying a definitive draft is not imminent as DC Studios focuses on Reeves' The Batman Part II entering production this spring.
- James Gunn and Peter Safran are producing The Brave and the Bold, and the studio wants it distinct in tone while Gunn called Damian Wayne `a little son of a bitch assassin murderer`.
