The DCUs Maxwell Lord Will Disavow Prior Portrayals & Be Based on Comics
Fear not, fans, as there’s no need to concern yourself about another “Wonder Woman 1984” setback. Moreover, Sean Gunn’s portrayal of Maxwell Lord in the upcoming DC Universe won’t resemble any previous live-action interpretations of the comic book character. It was confirmed back in December 2023 that Gunn would bring the cunning and shrewd DC Comics businessman to life under the direction of his brother, James Gunn, and Peter Safran. In a recent interview, Sean Gunn clarified that his Max Lord will not be based on any prior character performances. According to The Wrap, Gunn stated: “My version of Max Lord won’t reference other live performances of the character.”
