Summary

On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we dive into the latest news shaking up Hollywood! Reports suggest that James Gunn's position at DC Studios seems to be safe — even if the rumored Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount merger happens. What does that mean for DC's future and the new DCU slate? We'll break it all down.

We'll also discuss the reports that Paramount's CEO plans to use AI to boost movie and TV output, and the possibility of HBO Max being absorbed into Paramount+ if the merger goes through. Plus — the box office failure of adult upscale films, dueling Road House sequels in the works, and a Marvel writer taking on Buck Rogers!

Tune in for all that and more with Kristian Harloff and the crew as they cover the biggest entertainment stories of the day!
