“What matters [to Nolan] is are you going to release this right? Are you going to have the correct marketing strategy? Are you going to get the Imax screens? Are you going to leave me alone to make the movie I want to make? All these things that he knows he got with Universal [on ‘Oppenheimer’],” says Stephen Galloway, dean of Chapman University’s Dodge College of Film and Media Arts. “Why would he not go to Universal?”
Exactly, Nolan should stay away from Zaslav and his accounting practices.
Finally, WB suffering due to their antics, I'm sad for the IP they hold and the non-management employees and creators. It's been years since it's been known that the WB management gets in the way of movies.
sad for the IP they hold
James gunn looks to be the saviour for the DCEU atleast and I hope he succeeds. I still have a fear that Zaslav will interfere and tank the DCEU once again
Yeah this is what I assumed would start happening as a result of Zaslav’s antics. I’m sure plenty of creators will still go with WB for the right price but I doubt this will be the last time they lose out on a top tier creator
