Writer/director [[Freddie Goodwin]] announced in March 2022 that they were building their own universe with films and "even shorter films called 'Fragments', which will reveal more about the lore of the GWU". Goodwin announced that he has worked with a dozen other people on making each installment. By June 2022, [[Robert Downey Jr.]] revealed he had been approached by Goodwin about starring in multiple films in his universe, which he agreed to do so as long as he portrays a "cool" character. By August of that year, Goodwin began work on a shortfilm based on two characters. He decided to choose a character from both [[DC Comics]] (Luthor) and [[Marvel Comics]] (Stark). Before starting work on the film, Goodwin was joined by [[Alex Brow]], who joined him in writing the screenplay. Brow described the film as a "great way to kick things off", and stated Chapter One will be one of the "biggest things in the film industry". Filming began in March 2024 and concluded in May of that year. Reshoots occured throughout the remainder of 2024 with everything being finished by November 2024. With production finished for ''Clash of Minds'', Goodwin announced that they have thought of everything and hoped that people would be excited for the first film. Concurrently, Brow had already begun writing a new film based on [[Spider-Man]], called ''Web of Shadows'' and was announced to be set in the same universe as ''Clash of Minds''.

{{Main|List of Goodwin's Universe Fragments}}
In 2025, Mob Productions introduced an innovative storytelling format called ''Fragments'', a serialized anthology series designed to explore events and narratives that wouldn’t fit into the larger film installments of the GWU. The idea behind ''Fragments'' was to expand the GWU’s lore without the constraints of traditional movie storytelling, providing more flexibility for character-driven arcs and world-building. Goodwin announced that ''Fragments'' would be released as episodic stories, with new installments arriving weekly starting in late January 2025 and concluding in March 2025. Each month would feature a new set of episodes, offering fans consistent content while keeping production costs lower than a full-length film. Despite being a cost-saving measure, ''Fragments'' boasted a combined budget of $2.5 million, higher than many of the GWU's short film releases, reflecting the studio's commitment to maintaining high production quality. This approach not only allowed for the exploration of untold stories but also gave fans deeper insights into pivotal moments, character backstories, and side plots that would otherwise remain unexplored. The series was praised for its episodic structure, which balanced cinematic quality with affordability, further solidifying Mob Productions' innovative approach to expanding the GWU.

Goodwin's Universe
Chapters

Chapter One is the first slate of content for the Goodwin's Universe (GWU), which is scheduled to begin in January 2025. It is a media franchise and shared universe with shortfilms. The GWU was created by Freddie Goodwin with the help of the production company Mob Productions and the producer company SOI Studios. Chapter One is set to have eleven installments, with one releasing each month except for December 2025. Chapter One began with Clash of Minds, which was released on February 15, 2025, as the true beginning of the GWU. The feature films in this chapter are produced both by Marvel Studios and DC Studios alongside Mob Productions, SOI Studios, and Warner Bros. Pictures.

The films of the chapter are Clash of Minds, starring Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Web of Shadows, Gods Among Mortals, Shadows of Gotham, Broken Alliances, and Goodwinverse: Assembled.

Background[edit | edit source]

Early work (2019)[edit | edit source]

In 2019, a script for a film based on Superman had been given to Mob Productions to go through and develop.[1] However, the script was rejected due to poor writing.[2] SOI Studios joined as producers and said they will ensure the quality is as good as can be.[3][4]

Development[edit | edit source]

Writer/director Freddie Goodwin announced in March 2022 that they were building their own universe with films and "even shorter films called 'Fragments', which will reveal more about the lore of the GWU".[5] Goodwin announced that he has worked with a dozen other people on making each installment.[6] By June 2022, Robert Downey Jr. revealed he had been approached by Goodwin about starring in multiple films in his universe, which he agreed to do so as long as he portrays a "cool" character.[7]

By August of that year, Goodwin began work on a shortfilm based on two characters.[8] He decided to choose a character from both DC Comics (Luthor) and Marvel Comics (Stark).[9] Before starting work on the film, Goodwin was joined by Alex Brow, who joined him in writing the screenplay.[10] Brow described the film as a "great way to kick things off", and stated Chapter One will be one of the "biggest things in the film industry".[11] Filming began in March 2024 and concluded in May of that year.[12] Reshoots occurred throughout the remainder of 2024 with everything being finished by November 2024.[13] With production finished for Clash of Minds, Goodwin announced that they have thought of everything and hoped that people would be excited for the first film.[14] Concurrently, Brow had already begun writing a new film based on Spider-Man, called Web of Shadows and was announced to be set in the same universe as Clash of Minds.[15]

Brow had discussed on multiple occasions that he had worked on making sure Web of Shadows didn't "ruin the experience" for those who didn't see Clash of Minds;[16] but stated he is committed to make sure Web of Shadows makes it clear that the events of Clash of Minds isn't ignored.[17]

By March 2023, Goodwin announced that he has plans to introduce the characters The Flash, Superman, and Captain America into the GWU.[18] Goodwin stated he had looked through all the storylines the team had already planned for the GWU and said these characters are a must in order to have it be a "success".[19] Discussing the potential of the storyline falling apart and becoming a "mess", Goodwin stated he has multiple backup plans to ensure the GWU is a quality he wishes it to be and never less of that said quality.[20][21] Goodwin stated that backup plans would allow the GWU to evolve if necessary without compromising its core story.[22][23]

In July 2024, Mob Productions held a livestream on YouTube and Facebook where Goodwin announced a full Chapter One slate.[24] This included the films—Clash of Minds, Web of Shadows, Gods Among Mortals, Broken Alliances, and Goodwinverse: Assembled—with one scheduled for each month of 2025.[25] During the broadcast, Goodwin stated that all the content released during 2025 will be part of Chapter One and anything after that will be part of a new chapter.[26] Goodwin announced that a total of seven Fragments are expected to release during each Chapter, and hoped to announce more at a later date.[27] The stream concluded with the reveal of the Fantastic Four logo, revealing a film is in development.[28][29]
