‘Booster Gold’ Reportedly Close To Getting a Showrunner as the Main Star Has Already Been Cast

When Gunn & Safran took over DC Studio as co-chairmen and co-CEOs, they announced a complete overhaul of the old DCEU and announced a large number of projects ranging from live-action movies to live-action TV shows and animated series. We know that several projects are currently in production such as ‘Superman’ bound to be released in 2025 and ‘Creature Commandos’ the first project to be released under the newly coined DCU label.

One project that is rarely talked about when it comes to the DCU is the upcoming ‘Booster Gold’ TV Show, focusing on the hero of the same name.

Recently, James Gunn revealed that the show is being actively worked on but it’s not going to go into production anytime soon. Now industry insider, Daniel Richtman reveals that the show is getting a showrunner soon, and the titular character has already been cast, something we already suspected based on recent comments made on social media.

If you can recall the history of ‘Booster Gold’ production, you will certainly notice that it’s quite long. In November 2011, Syfy ordered a television series based on Booster Gold, developed by Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg. However, despite Kreisberg submitting a script in June 2013, the project never materialized. On January 31, 2023, James Gunn announced the first part of Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, which included Booster Gold among the projects, and this is pretty much all we know about the show.

We can’t even begin to speculate on who might portray the titular hero, but based on Chris Pratt’s recent comments, one can’t help but wonder….?
