Charles Roven (born August 2, 1949) is an American film producer, president and co-founder of Atlas Entertainment.
He was married to producer Dawn Steel until her death in 1997. He is now married to Stephanie Haymes, the daughter of entertainers Dick Haymes and Fran Jeffries.
Jared Joseph Leto (/lɛtoʊ/) (born December 26, 1971) is an American actor, singer, songwriter, and director. After starting his career with television appearances in the early 1990s, Leto achieved recognition for his role as Jordan Catalano on the television series My So-Called Life (1994). He made his film debut in How to Make an American Quilt (1995) and received critical praise for his performance in Prefontaine (1997). Leto played supporting roles in The Thin Red Line (1998), Fight Club (1999) and American Psycho (2000), as well as the lead role in Urban Legend (1998), and earned critical acclaim after portraying heroin addict Harry Goldfarb in Requiem for a Dream (2000). He later began focusing increasingly on his music career, returning to acting with Panic Room (2002), Alexander (2004), Lord of War (2005), Lonely Hearts (2006), Chapter 27 (2007), and Mr. Nobody (2009). He made his directorial debut in 2012 with the documentary film Artifact.
Leto's performance as a transgender woman in Dallas Buyers Club (2013) earned him the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, among numerous other accolades. Leto is considered to be a method actor, known for his constant devotion to and research of his roles. He often remains completely in character for the duration of the shooting schedules of his films, even to the point of adversely affecting his health. He is also known to be selective about his film roles.
David Ayer (born January 18, 1968) is an American film director, producer, and screenwriter. He is best known for being the writer of Training Day (2001), and the director and writer of Harsh Times (2005), Street Kings (2008), End of Watch (2012), Sabotage (2014), and Fury (2014). In September 2014, Ayer was announced as both the writer and director for the DC Comics film Suicide Squad, scheduled for release in 2016.
Ayer was born in Champaign, Illinois, on January 18, 1968, and grew up in Bloomington, Minnesota, and Bethesda, Maryland, where he was kicked out of his house by his parents as a teenager. Ayer then lived with his cousin in Los Angeles, California, where his experiences in South Central Los Angeles became the inspiration for many of his films. Ayer then enlisted in the United States Navy as a submariner. According to Shia LaBeouf, who starred in Ayer's film Fury, Ayer is "a full subscriber to Christianity."
Ayer's screenplay, Squids, was based on his experiences as a U.S. Navy Submarine sailor, and he also integrated those experiences from his service in the U.S. Navy into rewrites of the submarine thriller U-571. Ayer collaborated on the screenplay for The Fast and the Furious in 2001. Ayer wrote the screenplay for crime drama Dark Blue, and it was his research into the Los Angeles Police Department that led to his most prominent screenplay, Training Day. Ayer signed a contract to write a screenplay for S.W.A.T., which was based on his original story pitch. The film was directed by Clark Johnson and released in 2003.
Wonder Woman is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character is a warrior princess of the Amazons (which are based on the Amazons of Greek mythology) and is known in her homeland as Princess Diana of Themyscira. When outside her homeland, she is sometimes known by the secret identity Diana Prince. She is gifted with a wide range of superhuman powers and superior combat and battle skills. She possesses an arsenal of weapons, including the Lasso of Truth, a pair of indestructible bracelets, a tiara which serves as a projectile, and (in older stories) a range of devices based on Amazon technology.
Wonder Woman was created by the American psychologist and writer William Moulton Marston. The character first appeared in All Star Comics #8 in December 1941 and first cover-dated on Sensation Comics #1, January 1942. The Wonder Woman title has been published by DC Comics almost continuously except for a brief hiatus in 1986. Her depiction as a heroine fighting for justice, love, peace, and gender equality has led to Wonder Woman being widely considered a feminist icon. Created during World War II, the character was initially depicted fighting Axis military forces as well as an assortment of colorful supervillains, although over time her stories came to place greater emphasis on characters, deities, and monsters from Greek mythology. In the decades since her debut, Wonder Woman has gained a formidable cast of enemies bent on eliminating the Amazon, including classic villains such as Ares, Cheetah, Circe, Doctor Psycho, and Giganta, along with more recent adversaries such as the First Born. Wonder Woman has also regularly appeared in comic books featuring the superhero teams Justice Society (from 1941) and Justice League (from 1960).
Folks are no doubt excited for next March’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice—which is the culmination of an onscreen superhero battle/team-up we’ve been waiting on for decades—but perhaps Warner Bros. was a tad surprised at just how fervent the fan anticipation would be for the studio’s BvS follow-up Suicide Squad. It’s an ambitious film to be sure, telling a superhero story entirely from the “bad guys’” point of view, but it blends the iconography of the DC Comics library with something the film’s writer and director David Ayer does very well: a family story. For those unfamiliar, Suicide Squad revolves around a group of villains who are tasked with performing high-risk operations for the government in exchange for commuted sentences. We don’t know exactly what they’ll be after/doing i...
Atlas Entertainment President and producer Charles Roven is not only intimately involved in the DC Cinematic Universe, he was key in changing the landscape of the superhero genre as we know it with Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy. Suffice it to say, the guy has some experience in bringing DC superhero characters to screen, and he faced one of his toughest challenges yet with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, director Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel follow-up that not only serves to expand the DC universe by introducing a new Batman (Ben Affleck) and Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), but also laying the foundation for Warner Bros.’ inter-connected universe going forward. Steve recently got the chance to sit down with Roven for an extended interview tied to last week’s trailer debut for Warcraft, w...
With Zack Snyder’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice now playing in theaters around the world, the other day I sat down with producer Charles Roven for an exclusive video interview about the film. During our wide-ranging conversation he talked about if there were dramatic changes during production or if they stayed true to their original script, how they figured out the boundaries of each superhero’s superpowers, setting up a connection to the Wonder Woman movie, what they learned from friends and family screenings and test screenings, how they worked out what to cut for the upcoming extended edition, and more. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice also stars Henry Cavill, Laurence Fishburne, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg, Diane Lane, Holly Hunter, Jeremy Irons, Diane Lane, and Scoot McNairy....
Stefan Pape from HeyUGuys interviews Producers Deborah Snyder & Charles Roven for their movie Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice which stars Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill and is directed by Zack Snyder. In the interview they talk about whether or not there were thoughts to do a standalone Batman movie, how Deadpool has changed the comic book landscape, competing with Marvel and where we'll see the Justice Lead DC Comic Book franchise going from here. Batman vs. Superman stars Jason Momoa, Amy Adams, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Ben Affleck, Tao Okamoto, Diane Lane, Scoot McNairy, Jesse Eisenberg, Jeremy Irons, Holly Hunter, Laurence Fishburne, Callan Mulvey, Ray Fisher, Ezra Miller and Michael Shannon.

Hayley Donaghy interviews Producers Charles Roven & Richard Suckle for DC Comics and Warner Bros' Suicide Squad, which is the latest film in the ever expanding DC Comic cinematic universe. They talk about why the DC comic book characters resonate with the audience, working with directors like Zack Snyder and David Ayer, and bringing future big names to future movies. They also talk about the heritage of Wonder Woman, the fact she's just celebrated her 75th birthday and how it's taken such a long time to appear in her own movie on the big screen.

Last week I landed an exclusive video interview with Atlas Entertainment’s President and Co-Founder Charles Roven. While I’ve spoken to the prolific producer (full resume here) a number of times for some of his previous movies like The Dark Knight Rises, Man of Steel, Get Smart, and The Dark Knight, this was my first time getting to sit down with him for an extended conversation about the industry and all his upcoming projects. Over the course of nearly an hour at Atlas’ Beverly Hills office, I was able to go in-depth with Roven about Atlas Entertainment, the Warcraft movie, The Great Wall, the Uncharted movie, future DC movies like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, The Flash, Wonder Woman, Suicide Squad, and so much more. As someone that is excited about a number of his upcoming projec...

By now, folks are very familiar with the way Marvel Studios works. What at first seemed like a very out of the ordinary approach—forming a “Brain Trust” of creative-types to hash out the studio’s inter-connected universe plans—has now become commonplace for any big studio wanting to enact a big multi-franchise blueprint. The one that’s probably of most interest to fans, of course, is the Brain Trust over at Warner Bros., which is putting together that studio’s slate of inter-connected DC Comics adaptations. Obviously Warner Bros. has a very different approach to how it makes its superhero films than Marvel does, but up until now, little was known about exactly how they set about crafting their own interconnected universe. Luckily, Steve recently got the chance to sit down with Atlas Enter...
