Dua Lipa as Zatanna? James Gunn clears the magic rumors

Rumors have been swirling faster than a Zatanna spell: Dua Lipa is joining the DCU as the iconic magician Zatanna Zatara. Fans were buzzing at the thought of the “Levitating” queen taking on the role of the illusionist diva. The whispers even speculated that Dua Lipa had signed a 10-year deal with DC Studios, making it a real commitment for the pop girl.

However, James Gunn, the mastermind behind DC’s cinematic future, stepped into the rumor storm to set things straight. When asked on Threads about Dua Lipa’s alleged casting, Gunn didn’t hold back—there’s absolutely no truth to the rumor. It seems that the fantasy of our diva casting spells will remain distant.

“Until this moment it was neither of those things but as of now it’s debunked as well. 10 year contract”? Do they think this is the 1930’s? I’m a Dua Lipa fan, but no.”

Despite Dua Lipa not becoming an illusionist, she has made important moves this year with music. She is currently about to kick off the “Radical Optimism Tour,” beginning on November 5, 2024, in Singapore. The singer is set to visit Asia, Oceania, Europe, and North America through this year and the next.
