À propos de cet audio

The article argues that a film based on the DC comic book team The Terrifics should be the first spinoff from James Gunn's new DCU, launching after the Superman movie.

The main points of the article are:

  • The Team is DC's Fantastic Four: The author describes The Terrifics as DC's answer to Marvel's Fantastic Four—a found family of science-adventurers. The team consists of four core members:
  • Mister Terrific (Michael Holt): The super-genius leader, an Olympic-level athlete, and the "third smartest man alive." He is already confirmed to appear in Gunn's Superman.
  • Plastic Man (Eel O'Brian): A reformed criminal with stretching powers who provides the main comedic relief.
  • Metamorpho (Rex Mason): A tragic hero who can transform his body into any element, but is trapped in a monstrous form and seeks a cure.
  • Phantom Girl (Linnya Wazzo): An alien princess stuck in an intangible phantom state.
  • Perfect Fit for James Gunn's Style: The team's dynamic—a blend of high-concept sci-fi, heartfelt emotion, and quirky humor—perfectly aligns with the style James Gunn established in Guardians of the Galaxy and The Suicide Squad.
  • Natural World-Building: A Terrifics movie would be an ideal vehicle to introduce the weirder, more bizarre corners of the DC Universe without needing a world-ending threat. It could explore strange dimensions, mad science, and cosmic mysteries.
  • Strong Foundation: With Mister Terrific already being introduced in Superman, the foundation for the spinoff is already being laid, providing a natural and seamless way to expand the new DCU.

In essence, the article pitches The Terrifics as a character-driven, adventurous, and tonally unique film that could perfectly showcase the fun and expansive potential of James Gunn's new DC Universe.
