When James Gunn announced the news of a ‘soft reboot’ for the DC universe earlier this year, fans were left surprised at the news. Following this announcement came the news that Henry Cavill, who portrayed Superman, and Ben Affleck, who played Batman, would be leaving the franchise too. This led to an enraged uproar from devastating fans who were not ready to see their favorite actors leave the DCU so soon.
However, instead of this uproar being toned down after knowing that new and better actors will turn up for playing the superheroes and supervillains, fans seem to be much more infuriated as news surfaces that Margot Robbie will be reprising her character of Harley Quinn in the franchise.
Margot Robbie Rumoured To Reprise Her Role As Harley Quinn In DC Universe
Although James Gunn has been trying really hard to make the DC Universe survive ever since he became the co-CEO of the studio by making enormous changes to it, it seems that his trick just isn’t working. Ever since he announced the news of a complete reboot, he only found fans disappointed in his decision.
Furthermore, if that wasn’t enough, rumors surfacing about Margot Robbie reprising her role as Harley Quinn in the franchise seem to have stirred up the anger in fans even more. As tweeted by ScreenTime on Twitter, the Barbie star will be apparently returning to her role.
While this news hasn’t been confirmed by James Gunn yet, fans are only getting more and more infuriated with each new surfacing rumor about nearly every other old member of the franchise returning besides Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck.
James Gunn Is Getting Trolled Hard By Fans
Finding out that everyone but their favorite actors are rumored to return to the franchise has started a new uproar among fans regarding the matter. That being said, several DC fans have taken to Twitter to troll James Gunn for his controversial decisions, even though they haven’t been confirmed yet.
Here’s what infuriated fans have to say to Gunn about the DC Universe Reboot:
Judging from the already riled-up fans, it seems that James Gunn’s plan for a soft reboot for the franchise just might end up in turmoil. However, it might also be too early to say anything, so we’ll all just have to wait and see what fate the DC universe faces. In the end, it is a soft reboot and not a complete reboot, indicating that not everything will be the same and not everything will be different.
