Even before James Gunn announced the upcoming slate for the newly-launched DC Studios that he heads with Peter Safran, we knew that superhero television was about to change. For years, DC succeeded on television where it had arguably struggled on film, thanks to the hugely successful Arrowverse on CW. From the gritty series Arrow that launched in 2012, the Arrowverse grew into a massive superhero soap opera, making up for the absence of the DC Trinity with fan-favorites like the Flash and the Atom, and rehabilitated D-listers like Wild Dog and Vibe.
But for all of its popularity and success, the Arrowverse is nearly over. With The Flash in its ninth and final season, and Superman & Lois officially not part of the same universe, the massive franchise seems to be at an end. And although Gunn has been clear that the DC Studios slate will not only include television offerings but...

ReviewThe film has too many similarities to ‘The Family Man’ web series but is nowhere as nuanced or layered. Sowmya RajendranIf you’ve watched Amazon Prime Video’s The Family Man, you are likely to suffer from a heavy sense of deja vu all through Ashishor Solomon’s Wild Dog. Though the Ott series is a fictional story inspired by real events and the Nagarjuna film is based on actual serial bomb blasts, and the trajectories of the respective investigations are different, there is overwhelming similarity between the two. Perhaps it was to offset this comparison that Ashishor decided to call his hero Vijay Varma (Nagarjuna), the ‘Wild Dog’. What could be farther from Srikanth Tiwari’s (Manoj Bajpayee) ‘The Family Man’ title that suggests domesticity? But in trying to make Vijay Varma different, the writer-director ends up stuffing him into the same mould as Telugu heroes who are trigger-happy...
