Warner Bros. has made another move in the shake-up of the executives making its DC films, moving longtime DC film producer Charles Roven to a less closely involved role on at least some of the movies he’d been slated to produce, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Last week, Warners put DC Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns and Warners exec Jon Berg in charge of DC movies at the studio (see "Executive Shake-Up on DC Films") as part of the same shake-up.
Roven produced all three Christopher Nolan Batman films, Man of Steel, and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but has now been pulled off The Flash and Aquaman, and while he’s still on the set for Justice League, Berg has been sent to London to oversee production on the ground. Roven’s future role on DC movies is in flux, with a possible move to executive producer on some of the films taking him out of day-to-day production, according to the report.
Warners has been comparing the performance of Batman v Superman, stalled at under $900 million, with Captain America: Civil War, which hit $1 billion in its third weekend. Perhaps more important was the critical and fan response, both negative. Other recent changes to its DC film productions have included parting ways with the director originally assigned to The Flash, and reshoots on Suicide Squad.
