BATGIRL

>Script development. Joss Whedon will write and direct. He plans to create an original female villain for the movie. Batgirl will be 21 years old, and there are plans to cast an unknown actress for the role. J.K. Simmons will appear, but no word on Ben Affleck.


NIGHTWING

>Script development. Chris McKay will write and direct. Red Hood will be the villain. WB's watchlist for both roles includes Dylan O'Brian, Kit Harington, Richard Madden, Dacre Montgomery, James Norton, Jack Lowden, Taron Egerton and Taylor Kitsch, among others. Again, no word on an appearance by Ben Affleck.


GOTHAM CITY SIRENS

>Script development. Black Mask will be the villain. David Ayer is off the project and WB is scouting female directors, including Mimi Leder and Rachel Talatay. Haley Bennett was in preliminary talks for Catwoman under Ayer's direction, but there's no word on whether that's still going on. WB's shortlist for the roles of Catwoman and Poison Ivy include Emily Blunt, Rebecca Ferguson, Ana de Armas, Kathryn Winnick, Anabelle Wallis, Jessica Chastain, Rosamund Pike, Diane Kruger and Laura Haddock, among others.


SUICIDE SQUAD 2

>Script development. Gavin O'Connor will write and direct. Plans for it to be a "dark and gritty" spy thriller, avoiding the world-ending stakes of the first movie. There are plans to feature Manganiello's Deathstrke as one of the villains now that he's no longer slated for THE BATMAN. Killer Frost and Multiplex are slated to appear. Katana might not return. The Joker will appear in some capacity, but elements of his and Harley's proposed storyline have been reshuffled to their standalone spin-off.


JOKER & HARLEY QUINN

>Script development. Glen Ficarra and John Reque will direct. Based on the "Mad Love" storyline. Margot Robbie will co-produce. No word on an appearance by Ben Affleck. Jared Leto will appear.

BLACK ADAM

>Early development. Dwayne Johnson wants his frequent collaborator Brad Peyton to direct. Vandal Savage will likely be the villain.


MAN OF STEEL 2.

>Early development. WB is meeting with prospective writers. Brainiac will likely be the villain. There's been talks about bringing back Zack Snyder.


JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK

>Script development. Nikolaj Arcel, Mike Flanagan and Trey Edwart Shultz in talks to direct. Andres Muschetti, Damian Szifron, Daniel Espinosa, Gerard Johnstone and Cary Fukunaga have already passed. Numerous script rewrites. Core plot remains centered on John Constantine assembling Zatanna, Etrigan, Deadman and Swamp Thing to fight Anton Arcane. Colin Farrel is the top choice for Constantine.


GREEN LANTERN CORPS

>Based on the "Secret Origin" storyline. Older veteran Hal Jordan mentoring young rookie John Stewart. Watchlist for Hal includes A-listers such as Mark Wahlberg, Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise. Watchlist for Stewart includes up-and-coming actors such as Michael B. Jordan, Dayo Okeniyi and Stephan James. The Manhunters will be the villains. Sinestro will not be feature to distance the movie from the 2011 version.


FLASHPOINT

>Based on the "Flashpoint" storyline. Robert Zemeckis still in talks to direct. Michael Bay and Morten Tyldum have also been approaced. Several directors have passed on the project including Sam Raimi, Marc Webb, Matthew Vaughn, Tim Miller, Jordan Peele and Duncan Jones, among others. Plans for Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Ray Fisher and Jeffrey Dean Morgan to appear, but not Lauren Cohan. The Joker subplot will likely not be included. Studio watchlist for the Reverse Flash includes Colin Farrell, Michael Fassbender, Oscar Isaac, Joel Edgerton, Ed Skrein, Adam Driver, Dan Stevens and Tom Hiddleston, among others, but no offers have been made. Vera Farmiga and Carrie Coon are also on the watchlist for Nora Allen.

JUSTICE LEAGUE 2

>Early development. Darkseid will likely be the villain. Snyder won't direct. Whedon won't direct, but has been approached to write it. Green Lantern will probably be added to the roster.


ELSEWORDS

>New banner of standalone auteur-driven DC movies removed from the DCEU, allowing for R-rated movies eligible for the Oscars. WB believes it's their trump card against Marvel. Spearheaded by Todd Phillips's "Scorsese-esque" JOKER origin. Also being discussed are adaptations of "Red Son", "The Doom That Came to Gotham", "Secret Identity", "Kingdom Come", "Identity Crisis", "The Longbow Hunters", Danny O'Neil's "The Question", Keith Giffen's "Lobo", Justice League International, among others.v

Now I can't look at the guy and not imagine edgy shit.

Thanks a lot, /tv/.

$10 days afleck drops after JL premieres and WB shifts all focus to Steven king related properties.

Get ready for a shining reboot

So basically they gave up with dark tone and went with Marvel formula? I liked how these 2 comic universes were so different, but now we are supposed to get Marvel2? Wondering which way Universal Dark Universe takes in next movie.

God almighty, when will it end

>>87746330
Never.

This all sounds terrible. If Snyder's done, there's zero reason to care

>>87746526
this. Snyder needs to focus on his George Washington/American Revolution movie

>>87746102
>Lex Luthor and Deathstroke have been cut
Big if true.

Why get rid of deathstroke fegits

>>87746102
Who wants a fucking Shazam movie? Just because Marvel can make a successful franchise from GOTG doesn't mean WB has the same clout. They've released one decent movie so far

>>87746174

Can't see Tom Cruise getting into capeshit. Also Michael B. Jordan is now with Marvel, dont they have a contact which prevents their actors work with DC?

>>87746102
>Joss Whedon reworked about 40% of the movie
dusk of kino

>>87746755
Only for recurring actors. Jordan is a one and done.

>>87746474
After Infinity War

>>87746526
Hahahahaaahahaaaaaahahahahahaaaaaa!

>>87746102
>Joss Whedon reworked about 40% of the movie
That a lie or Whedon has a time machine.

>>87746677
Because having sitcom meathead Joe Mangina playing Deathstroke was a terrible fucking idea.

>>87746102
>James Marsden is the current frontrunner to play Shazam

is Superman gonna cuck poor James again?

>>87746135
>Dacre Montgomery as possible Nightwing
This would be fucking kino. Especially since he's probably not going to get much time as Jason Scott, he could at least be Jason Todd

>>87746755
>Can't see Tom Cruise getting into capeshit

After he signed on for a film directed by Kurtzman?

>Dark Universe next movie.

>>87746317
Test screening audiences said that the movie was literally unwatchable. It was likely packed with so many set ups for upcoming movies and characters that it was just jarring.

As per usual, nary a source to be found.

>>87746102
Whats the point of test screenings it's literally making a film for the stupid people, Id prefer films just to be made as the director intends and if people like they like, this is where the are has gone in film making

>>87746102
>>Script development. Matt Reeves will direct. Original story described as a "murder mystery". Ben Affleck, Jeremy Irons and J.K. Simmons confirmed to return. Joe Manganiello will no longer appear as Deathstroke. Hugo Strange will be featured, but there's no word on whether he's the main villain. Eyeing a 2019 release date.

murder mystery, holy fuck this is all ive ever wanted, an actual detective kino but with batman instead of a cop,

>>Joss Whedon reworked about 40%
Fake news, he's not even getting a directing credit

>>87751899

It's to small scale for Batman though unless the murder mystery leads into a massive conspiracy. I know /co/ hates the Court of Owls but it's a good concept

>>87752228
i think thats what he needs though, you can have him beating up guys on the side and maybe a low level villian like two face causeing troulbe in the underbelly, but id love a literaly who guy that was murdered some people not some mastermind s7even meets batman

>>87746174
I hate the idea of a flashpoint movie this early on, but I love the idea of Michael Fassbender as Reverse Flash.

Aside from that, they are planning far too big, if the next few movies flop people aren't just going to come and see them like they did with Suicide Squad.

I literally never asked for over half of this shit. What a clusterfuck. What even is the point of the Batman rogues if they are going to be treated as protagonists in spinoff films before even getting the chance to be villains in the first place?

the real DC dies with Justice League. God Bless Snyder

>>87752739
This. Unless they embrace Snyder's vision, they'll be screwing themselves out of building onto a fantastic setup.

He wrote at least 33% according to the union. You don't need a credit to recut and reorder scenes.

40% is totally believable.

Important question: Who will they recast as the big guy?

>>87746201

>Secret Identity

GOAT Superman story but I don't think it would make an exciting blockbuster.

>lex luthor has been cut
who? do we still get jesse eisenberg as the joker like in bvs?

>>87746102
>>87746201
>no more zack snyder


who the fuck else can summon darkseid as they've been alluding to in bvs and in jl trailers

>No teen titans
fucks sake

>>87755820
It's a big role.

>>87756196
Why would they role out legacy characters this early? Anyway the only Titans anyone really gives a shit about are is Nightwing and Wally West.

>>87756269
They're making the first flash movie flash point so why not?

>>87755517
That rule can be waived, and given the circumstances, it probably was. It could have been credit given out of simple appreciation of stepping in to see the project to completion.

>>87746834
agreed. unless marvel can get the rights for X-Men I'm out after infinity war. I don't particularly care for the next wave of characters at all. Except captain marvel but only mildly.

>>87746135
>Red Hood will be the villain
Being a Jason fag is suffering. Relegated to a Nightwing villain. Fuck me.

So many flicks no one asked for
