Present STATUS of upcoming DC movies..

It has been confusing for people trying to keep in touch with what is going on in Warner Bros. movie UNIVERSE, called DC Extended Universe (DCEU).




Here are all the movies & their plans –

Justice League (And Sequels)
Release Date – November 17th, 2017.



Justice League is in middle of being finished by Joss Whedon with reshoots & new scenes written by him—after Zack Snyder stepped back due to family tragedy. Rumour has that one of the changes being made by Whedon is the removal of Jesse Eisenberg.
A sequel to the movie was announced for 4th June 2019, but has been pushed back. Still in the cards is Man of Steel sequel, which Amy Adams had said is at least in the stage for scripting.

Aquaman


Release Date - December 21st , 2018.

The standalone Aquaman movie, is been the most stable slate. James Wan, has stuck it out as the director. It’s currently filming. Despite reports that he was considering leaving,

Shazam! and Black Adam


Release Date - April 5th , 2019.
The movie was firstly set to come out in April 2019, & plan appears to start filming early in 2018. David F. Sandberg is the director.
It was originally presumed that Black Adam, played by Dwayne Johnson, would be the villain of Shazam, but since been granted very own standalone movie.

Cyborg


Release Date - April 3rd , 2020.

Cyborg’s standalone movie is supposed to come out in April 2020. That’s all we know till now, note that Joe Morton is going to play Dr. Silas Stone.

Green Lantern Corps


Release Date - July 24th , 2020.

Just like Cyborg, Green Lantern Corps is going to release in 2020 but not more for now. David S. Goyer and Justin Rhodes are writing the script based on idea from Goyer and Geoff Johns.

Justice League Dark


Firstly known as Dark Universe, which was very confusing when Universal decided to share monster verse same name, that was announced in 2013 with Guillermo del Toro at helm. He was replaced last year with Doug Liman, with whole new script surrounding John Constantine, Swamp Thing, Deadman, Zatanna, and Etrigan. Liman also left in 2017, leaving the project without a director.

Flashpoint


Strap in, kids, this one’s especially bumpy. A standalone Flash movie was announced in 2014 and for a long time it was presumed that Ezra Miller would play Barry Allen in a move coming out on March 16, 2018. That release date receded into the realms of fiction as Warner Bros. didn’t get its first choice of director—the team of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, whom the studio signed to script the movie and was courting for the director’s chair. Then Seth Grahame-Smith (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) was hired to write and direct. He left in 2016, with his script put in the hands of Dope’s Rick Famuyiwa. Who also left that year.

The Batman


Affleck - hired to play Bruce Wayne in Batman v. Superman and was then set to take the reigns behind the camera for the Dark Knight’s standalone movie. There was a script and Joe Maganiello was about to play Deathstroke.
None of these things is certain anymore, including Affleck even staying on to play Batman. Early this year, Affleck stepped down as director and was with Matt Reeves. He’s scrapped Affleck’s script and recently managed to confuse everyone by When they approached me, what they said was, Look, it is a standalone, it’s not part of extended universe. Which could just mean it’s a standalone within the continuity of the DCEU but without the burden, say, Batman v Superman had to set up things for the rest of the universe. Or, given recent other announcements about the direction DC and WB are headed, could literally mean a parallel universe Batman movie. I think the former is still slightly more likely. But, at this point, either could be true. It’s still unclear.

Batgirl


Joss Whedon entered DCEU in order to write and direct Batgirl. It will begin production in 2018.

Nightwing


This year, another Batfamily picture was announced centered on Dick Grayson’s post-Robin identity. Chris McKay was hired to direct and Bill Dubuque was hired to write.

Lobo and Deadshot


Neither of these movies officially exist yet, but Jason Fuchs was supposedly writing a Lobo movie at some point and Deadshot was rumored to get a Suicide Squad spinoff his own.

Suicide Squad 2


The sequel was formally announced at Comic-Con last month. Last night, The Hollywood Reporter said the movie was being fast-tracked and it could come before some other just-announced plans.

Joker Movie


This Tuesday came the news that Warner Bros. is expanding their DC slate with a Joker origin movie that falls outside the canon of the DCEU. So the movies will have several universes—the exact opposite of Marvel’s “it’s all connected” mantra.
This Joker movie is intended to be made without Jared Leto, with Martin Scorsese producing and Todd Phillips (The Hangover) directing. It’s supposed to be a “gritty and grounded hard-boiled crime film set in early-’80s Gotham City.”

Joker and Harley Quinn Movie/Gotham City Sirens


In further Joker news, last night we learned that Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (This Is Us and Crazy, Stupid, Love) are in the final stages of being hired to write and direct a “criminal love story” with Leto and Margot Robbie back as the Joker and Harley


There was a brief moment when it was reported by Deadline that this movie was going to replace the previously announced Gotham City Sirens, which has Suicide Squad’s David Ayer attached to direct. That version of the story is gone now. Gotham City Sirens will be another villain team-up movie and also have Robbie and Leto back in their DC roles.
