Fans Upset with Gunn Over Rumored Casting of Booster Gold: “You LITERALLY had thousands of muscular Blonde White dudes to choose from”

As a passionate fan of DC comics and the upcoming Booster Gold live-action show, I’m excited about the potential new additions to the DCU. However, I can’t help but feel frustrated by the recent casting rumors and the fans’ reactions.


As an avid fan, I’m thrilled to share that Booster Gold is set to join the lineup of live-action shows in the DCU under “Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters.” Although specifics about the project are still limited, James Gunn, the mastermind behind it, has clarified that production won’t commence right away.

Supporters have once again expressed their preferences for who should take on the leading part in the upcoming production. Initially, Antony Starr and Chris Pratt gained significant attention due to their links to James Gunn and physical similarities. However, subsequent reports suggesting their casting have since been proven false.

According to NexusPoint News’ latest report, there are whispers that Kumail Nanjiani is being considered for the part of Booster Gold in the DC Universe. With his extensive resume and knack for comedy, Nanjiani could add a fresh perspective to the role should these rumors be confirmed.

On social media, some fans have voiced their disappointment over the casting decision for Booster Gold. They’re worried that Nanjiani, an actor of Pakistani-American descent with a distinct appearance, might not align with the conventional comic book depiction of the character.

I’m really disappointed with how things are going. This character just isn’t hitting it off with the audience no matter how hard they try to force him into every situation. He’s not going to become a success this way.

It’s best to hold off on creating any content related to Gunn’s statement until we have official confirmation first. Let’s wait and see what unfolds before taking action.
