The DC Universe is rebooting Batman and Superman, and their first crossover should be completely different from how it happened in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. One of the biggest moves that James Gunn has made as DC Studios' co-CEO is announcing plans to reboot Batman and Superman once again for the big screen. New actors will be brought in to lead new solo movies, Superman: Legacy and The Brave and the Bold, as the franchise looks to separate itself from what happened before with the DC Extended Universe. There are no confirmed plans for when Batman and Superman will crossover, but that should happen before too long.
Since the DC Universe is being built after what went wrong with the DCEU, it puts Gunn and Peter Safran in a position where they can purposefully do things differently, especially in cases where audiences did not respond positively to what came before. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is one of many divisive DCEU movies, as Zack Snyder's film pitted Ben Affleck's Batman against Henry Cavill's Superman. Not only is there an expectation that the DC Universe will bring more hopeful portrayals of both characters to the screen, but it could make the next Batman and Superman crossover very different.
