Some of them are true, some are partially true, and some aren’t true at all. If it’s fun for you to follow the unknowns, follow them, but don’t trust anything completely until you hear it from me or Peter (who is not online despite me seeing him tagged in stuff.)”
Another user shared a screengrab of an article talking about a Mr. Freeze movie reportedly in development and asked whether it has any truth. Gunn did comment directly, but said, ”It’s not a bad idea, so I wouldn’t say never but no there’s no truth to it at all.”
