James Gunn Reveals Exciting News About Batman Spin-Off Arkham Series in the DCU

This untitled series, once thought to be ⁣centered around the Gotham City Police Department, will actually be a part of the main DCU⁣ timeline, says DC Studios co-CEO‍ James Gunn. The origin ​of this ⁢series was set to take place in DC Elseworlds, but ⁤is‌ now confirmed to be part of the main DC Universe. Gunn also shared that it was always planned to be part of the DCU and was among the first pitches he ‌and his co-CEO Peter Safran received when ⁢they assumed their new‍ positions. This is a notable change from the original reports of this ​series being a prequel spin-off to The Batman, which exists outside the DCU and in DC Elseworlds, further solidifying⁤ this ​decision.
