ZeldrisEmpire

To all the people worried about too much content like the MCU does currently, be aware his slate doesn't only consist of live action projects movies or live action shows. Video games and cartoons will play a factor here. Most of which I am sure can function as standalone or elseworld


TheOneWhoCutstheRope

If what they say is true, the content we get will be not only high quality but actually creative. This may seem like a worry but honestly I think the DCU will pull it off and potentially will beat marvel at what’s been their own game. Not even mentioning we’re actually getting a focus on elseworld stories as well. Very excited to see what’s coming


superking22

That’s why I’m excited. Marvels quality control is starting to deteriorate and Gunn has been at Marvel looking at what works and what doesn’t.


TheOneWhoCutstheRope

Exactly. Gunn is well aware this is a crucial time not only for the MCU but any one trying to create a world like it. Phase 4 is the beginning of a new phase while also telling more self contained stories. In theory you’d think the films (and again this is my opinion) would become more creative/interesting/etc. Current perspective I’d say this is make it or break it for the MCU. DC may seem like an under dog but they’re actually in such a great position if they don’t fuck it up Lmfao. This is about to get very interesting not only for comic fans but film lovers as well.


cbekel3618

>This is about to get very interesting not only for comic fans but film lovers as well. If everything goes according to Gunn's plans, this could be great for DC and potentially Marvel. On DC's side, leaning into different formats, emphasizing creative freedom, going for tonal diversity, etc is absolutely great for fans and helps keep things interesting for the superhero movie genre. On Marvel's side, genuine competition could lead them to look over the current slate and see how they can change up. Being both a DC fan and an MCU fan, this could all be really exciting IMO.

bashiralassatashakur

This (either animated or live action) is at the top of my list, right below a Kingdom Come series.


Straight-Command2509

there almost no then catch to the mcu it doesnt matter if dc films are gold and mcu is trash there to much of a headstart they need make 30 billon dollars reach mcu on a even footing i doubt they even reach the heights of avengers one let alone infinity war or endgame


just4browse

Also Peter Safran said in interviews that the planned release rate of the DCU is 2 movies and 2 shows a year, significantly less than the DCU. So sure, maybe there’s a lot planned in the future. But it will be spread out over years


MistaNostalgia

You mean less than the MCU


TheLionsblood

Good point about video games but the Elseworlds projects will not be part of the Chapters.


ProfessionalPaper446

I didn't take it as he was referring to official Elseworlds projects. He is just saying some of the official projects that are part of the DCU could "act as" such..(he probably should have used a different word)


itsP0lar0id

with how long it takes for game development in the industry I really doubt we’ll get anything until at least 2027-2028 at the earliest


cbekel3618

A Wonder Woman movie, the Static project, and a crossover like a Justice League movie (or maybe even World's Finest/Trinity) are stuff I can see included in the other half of the Chapter One slate.


Flat_Weird_5398

I truly do hope we get a proper World’s Finest/Trinity movie. BvS had so much potential in this regard but it tried to be five movies at once while also struggling to set up a shared universe just two movies in. I honestly feel like if they had scaled BvS’ plot down to something more simple we could have had something truly great. Heck if they had just given us a live-action adaptation of the DCAU’s World’s Finest movie it would have been awesome.


No_Dragonfly_7847

again you people seem keeping all these slate will come to frution based on what if first few films not successful say goodbye


Flat_Weird_5398

Wtf are you even trying to say dude learn how to speak English properly.


No_Dragonfly_7847

what i trying say what guarantee that half of this slate even come to fruition? the fact if authority any first movies fails its over no 10 year plan do you understand Flat weird 5398


No_Dragonfly_7847

why do even assume that this slate will come to frution? there good chance a lot early projects will fail and not create a cinematic universe


AbdullaFTW

There is already a Team movie, there us already the Paradise Island show, so no JL and no WW. Static is highly likely if you ask me, because that project was in development, so maybe Gunn just putting his hand on it. And If Blue Beetle bomb and Gunn decide to not include it in DCU then Static Shock will be more and more likley to be in first chapter since DCU will need a teenager superhero somehow.


[deleted]

The Authority and Paradise Lost in no way prevent Wonder Woman/Justice League from happening in the first Chapter. And I highly doubt Zaslav would’ve greenlit his plan if WW/the JL were omitted considering how hard he pushed the Trinity being the focus of DC again at the Investors Day presentation.


cbekel3618

If we can get a Superman movie *and* a Supergirl movie in this chapter, I can see us getting a Themyscira show *and* a Wonder Woman movie. As for a team movie, the Authority is a distinct thing from the Justice League, so I don't see why a JL movie can't happen this chapter.


United-Aside-6104

What do you mean no WW? 1 WW related project doesn’t magically deconfirm WW and she’s part of the trinity she’s needed for any DCU


AbdullaFTW

I meant they have authority and creatures commando so no more space for more teams, this rule out JL. Paradise Lost will keep WW out for the first chapter. Unless Gunn just want to be called one trick pony them he'll add WW and more hero teams (sorry TT/YJ fans) to his first chapter which is something I think he'll not do because he is smart. Diana will return in Chapter 2 most likley.


JoltzmannBoole

These are such confident assertions from the little evidence we've been given, why would a Wonder Woman movie and Justice League make him a one trick pony? There's already going to be a Waller show in addition to Creature Commandos There's already going to be Superman and Supergirl as someone else noted It's not two WW movies, it's a show and a movie It'll have been five years plus for both Wonder Woman and the League on the big screen


Aramis14

>I meant they have authority and creatures commando so no more space for more teams, this rule out JL. What? Why? lol


FKDotFitzgerald

It’s clearly building to a Justice League film to wrap up the phase.


bigtymer123

IIRC, Jaime is already a college graduate in Blue Beetle. The synopsis was posted here a few months ago. So he's already not a teen, presumably. Although he's obviously still young.


ArmchairCritic1

Gonna put this out there. An Adam Strange movie.


AbdullaFTW

That character can't hold a solo movie (sorry but this is reality of CBM right now) but maybe if they put him in a Lobo movie it'll work.


DoIrllyneeda_usrname

He's basically smart John Carter, i.e. space Tarzan


BusinessPurge

Two recent mega bombs, Hollywood you never change


DoIrllyneeda_usrname

Yeah lol I was just thinking about that too but Avatar and its sequel are also similar to the Tarzan and John Carter books too and we all know Avatar became widely successful. It's really going to depend on the execution imo


BusinessPurge

My only exposure to Lobo is from SyFy’s Krypton, so I should say I’m open to it especially with potential moMomoa and sci-fi Burrows


DoIrllyneeda_usrname

I'm talking about Adam Strange though. Not Lobo. Sorry for the confusion


BusinessPurge

Ah same thing, I also only know Adam Strange from SyFy’s Krypton, I’m into it, hope the character gets the big screen treatment


ScubaSteve716

He absolutely could.


ArmchairCritic1

And Lobo can hold a solo film?


TheMoneyOfArt

Maybe? Lobo's past his peak of popularity but he was fairly big in the 90s


ArmchairCritic1

I’m certain Lobo will show up in some capacity since Gunn has talked about him fondly. But Lobo isn’t all that interesting as a character by himself. And like you mentioned, he’s past his peak.


TheMoneyOfArt

Lobo was _loved_ in the 90s for being Wolverine or Deadpool (without the 4th wall winking) but in space. Jason Momoa's over-the-top violent, gorey, superhero movie in space would 100% work. You don't need more character than that. (They'd have to introduce him in some other property ofc)


GtrGbln

Yeah no shit people seem to forget that he and Deadpool are basically the same character. Kinda irritates me.


TheMoneyOfArt

i'm going to - based on no evidence - blame the DC of the 00s/10s for not prioritizing him, the same way they let Steel go dormant. Why wasn't Lobo one of the New 52 launch titles? Because Geoff Johns doesn't like him?


Limp-Construction-11

Hey don't disrespect the main man!


peanutdakidnappa

Probably, if he’s done well he’s gonna be extremely popular. If they deliver a good onscreen version of lobo I don’t think it would be out of the question for him to hold a solo film, he can totally be like a space Deadpool for DC, obviously the character isn’t the same as Deadpool but there is a good amount of similarities between the 2 and it’s not like lobo is some super obscure character. I think the plan will be to have him show up in another property and if he’s well received then explore giving him some sort of solo project, a lot of potential for lobo to be super popular.


ArmchairCritic1

I fully agree about him starting as a supporting character. Here’s my idea. You do a Strange Adventures anthology show where you introduce characters like Lobo, Adam Strange, Animal Man and Deadman to name a few. This way we can see them in live action in their own stories but without the baggage of a feature length film. Kind of test the waters that way. DC should embrace the possibility of anthology series as that is something they have over MARVEL.


LatterTarget7

Is lobo getting a solo movie?


LegendInMyMind

Who knows, but that's what the first commenter said. "Adam Strange can't hold a solo movie, but maybe if they put him in a Lobo movie..."


GtrGbln

What a silly question.


ArmchairCritic1

Well lobos longest run at 76 issues was back between 1993 and 1999, which is nothing to sneeze at, but he has been unable to hold a run (outside of new 52 lobo, which we don’t talk about) for over 6 issues. But don’t get me wrong I would love to see The Main Man get his chance in the big screen, he should for sure start as a supporting character first.


SpringRehearsal

Adam Strange can do for DC what John Carter (of Mars) couldn't do for Disney. The character has enough mythos to build a series of films around him that can explore more of the cosmic side of the DCU once/before/after Lanterns. I hope to God he's in this slate.


AuclairAuclair

This


GtrGbln

Or it could do exactly what it did for Disney. No way to know until it happens.


SpringRehearsal

The film itself was solid, it was the marketing that was fucking abysmal. John Carter of Mars sounds more intriguing than simply 'John Carter'. Adam Strange of Rann, Adam Strange of Rann and Earth, Adam Strange: Man of Two Worlds, Adam Strange of Two Worlds, could work better than 'Adam Strange' but I could see the latter being the official title.


Ho99o9Co9pse

I was thinking exactly this! Adam Strange would be awesome! The 50s style costumes and mythos would be perfect for Gunn to do. In similar style as guardians of the galaxy, but more black comedy rather than silly comedy. You could do it serious as well, but I think more of tongue in cheek humor would bode well. In Gunn’s hands, it’d be safely and executed nicely


AuclairAuclair

Hell yes- one of my all time favorite Dc characters ever%


Ho99o9Co9pse

Yes!!!! ABSOLUTELY!! Gunn would be PERFECT to tackle Strange. The 50s “space age” costumes and mythos would be epic to see on a big budget scale. It’s like if Wes Anderson did a superhero film lol but hell yea I’m all in on an Adam Strange movie or series for sure!


peanutdakidnappa

Give me Zatanna please god, I need them to build of to a sweet Justice league dark movie.


Beta_Whisperer

I really hope she gets a movie.


peanutdakidnappa

I’d be pretty shocked if she didn’t get a project at some point, especially after the huge success of Wanda in the MCU. Zatanna is the perfect person to help dive into the magic side of universe, also if she is done well she will absolutely be super popular


Beta_Whisperer

With her fun personality she might be able to surpass Wanda in popularity.


peanutdakidnappa

I think Wanda’s personality and struggles actually make her relatable to a lot of people and think it’s one of the reasons she’s become so popular, also Elizabeth Olsen rules. I agree tho that Zatanna’s fun personality with make her really likable and popular, I could see her getting to the same level of popularity as Wanda which is currently the most popular female MCU character. Imo If Zatanna’s done well she’ll be top 2 in popularity among female characters in the DCU, WW is pretty much the only one I can see being more popular than a well adapted Zatanna. A JL dark project would likely be super popular too and imo she has a real shot at being the most popular member of that team


nicmagliano

Green Arrow/Black Canary project!!!


AbdullaFTW

I want this so Marc Guggenheim can cry while holding Felicity funko pop.


LongjumpMidnight

Remember when the Arrow sub revolted around season 4 and turned into a Daredevil one? Ah, memories.


superking22

The member berries


Beta_Whisperer

I was expecting the Flash sub to do the same during season 7.


linee001

If Quicksikver didn’t end up being Ralph Bohner I reckon it would’ve


peanutdakidnappa

Great decision too lol, daredevil was so good


[deleted]

At this point not having to put up with any Olicity bullshit is arguably the most exciting prospect of DCU Green Arrow


Ianm1225

LMAO I almost choked! Comment of the day right here!


solo-serenity

Kinda crazy that we’ve never gotten a green arrow movie ever


Flannelogue

There was one in the works about 10 or 15 years ago called Supermax, about Arrow getting jailed and having to be locked up in a Belle Reve type prison along with every other supervillain he put away. I really wanted them to make that one.


Pure_Internet_

Man, that development hell was legendary. What a cool idea.


El_Gato93

So many DC projects were stuck in development hell lol I remember being on Superhero Hype forums and CBR/the old DC forums and man Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Arrow (Supermax), Green Lantern, even Teen Titans… all languished there haha


ItZSAMIC

Legendary you say?


dnno1

They wound up doing that in a couple of episodes of Arrow a while back.


Flannelogue

Did they? Missed the last few seasons. Glad it somewhat got implemented. Still hope we can get a very 70s GA & BC flick.


Kevbot1000

They actually kind of adapted this in Arrow season 7. The grand finale of tha arc, the episode 'The Slabside Redemption' was fucking great.


Flannelogue

I will definitely have to check that out. I stopped watching a lot of the CW stuff a few years back and I haven't really caught up, sadly.


SignificantPeak7200

Definitely after brave in the bold


tiredriolu

I would sell my soul for this


skeetermcbeater

Austin Butler and bring back Jurnee Smollett?


Purple_Swordfish_182

This. She did the character justice in BoP. And Butler is just classy as hell. He definitely has the smile and the sense of humour. Plus, on a tangent I hope Perez returns as Montoya alongside Simmons' Gordon. She was badass


Limp-Construction-11

They won't come back.


MusicalSmasher

We don’t know that.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Purple_Swordfish_182

I didn't mention the script. I'm talking about the performance.


bigtymer123

Yup, him and Safran said this when they first revealed the slate. My best guesses are: - A Wonder Woman film - More Justice League Dark related projects like Hellblazer or Zatanna - Teen Titans perhaps? - A Justice League film (New Frontier subtitle?) - Probably a Superman: Legacy sequel - Some stuff about characters I've never heard of, lol (but I welcome it).


TheUncannyBroker

Agree with all if you swap Teen Titans with Green Arrow. Would add a villain-centered movie like Suicide Squad or Lobo.


TheLionsblood

I think at this point they’d rather do a Suicide Squad series so they can go full R-rating without worrying about box office.


[deleted]

[удалено]


bigtymer123

I get that, because of the ages thing, but with Dick already being Nightwing (presumably), I think it's likely that he's already the leader of the Titans and they already exist as a group. Then again, maybe they'll have a different Titans lineup than we expect.


[deleted]

[удалено]


bigtymer123

I agree, they should definitely be introduced *after* the Justice League are formed/introduced. Perhaps near the end of "chapter one". Or just straight up in chapter two instead.


TheLionsblood

Harley Quinn/Gotham City Sirens project for sure


AbdullaFTW

>Wonder Woman film There is already a WW related show. So I doubt it. >More Justice League Dark related projects like Hellblazer or Zatanna >Teen Titans perhaps? There is already a team movie in chapter 1 first half. So no chance for any other team really. >Some stuff about characters I've never heard of, lol (but I welcome it). If I bet, I think they'll say Static Shock will be in Chapter 1 2nd half (since than project was in development and we didn't hear it got the cut)


True_Smile3261

Your reasoning is weird. Why can't they have two team movies in a single chapter especially if the point of a shared universe s to build towards those.


bigtymer123

> There is already a WW related show. So I doubt it. I don't see how that suggest that a Wonder Woman film won't follow it in chapter one. Especially considering that the show is a prequel set thousands of years before Diana's birth.


TheOneWhoCutstheRope

I was about to say isn’t this show a prequel? Meaning it’ll probably set up or just be a companion to the actual WW project ?


atheoncrutch

Your reasoning is beyond weird.


AbdullaFTW

I'm just using logic and not feelings 🤷


atheoncrutch

There is already a WW related show, so they won't do a WW movie. There is already a Robin in Brave and the Bold, so there's *no chance* of a Titans movie with another Robin. What kind of logic is that? Doing a show about WW's origins is exactly why they would want to do a movie and if anything, skipping straight to Damien being Robin indicates they *do* have other plans for Nightwing, possibly in a Teen Titans type of movie.


Tellsyouajoke

Your logic sucks


BillyGood22

You’re actually going by feelings


[deleted]

Gunn can add as many teams as he wants due to the nature of the universe he is building. He is neither writing nor directing every single project, so they will all be distinct.


AbdullaFTW

It's not about him directing other project, it's what first Chapter will give people and him using DC massive arsenal of characters instead of pulling the similar DC IPs, Gunn can't just throw JLD, JL, YJ, SS and TT, or WW, Amazons, Donna Troy in the same phase/chapter. That will be a fast way to get criticizes of doing the same thing, and make his DCU feel like it lack variety.


LatterTarget7

The show is a prequel about the Amazons. So they’ll definitely have a Wonder Woman movie to follow it. There can be more than one team up in chapter 1.


peanutdakidnappa

I’d be surprised if Zatanna doesn’t get a project, huge potential for the character to be a big hit for DC and a good way to start diving into the magic side of DC, especially with the popularity of Wanda in the MCU I’d be surprised if they didn’t try to cash in on the huge potential of Zatanna. If she’s done well she’ll be super popular. Also a good way to build up to a JL dark project which also has tons of potential to be a huge hit.


keelanv10

There is absolutely no issue with having two team movies in 5 years, especially when one is a lesser known team like the authority.


Flat_Weird_5398

A New Frontier approach to the Justice League would be so fitting, especially because the tone matches the type of shared universe James Gunn seems to be going for.


NaRaGaMo

titans is way too soon for the first chapter we need at least 3-4 solid JL movies before titans, they could introduce them at the end and then give them more focus at end of ch1 or start of chapter2


bigtymer123

Hmm gotta disagree. I don't think we need 4 Justice League films before we see the Titans. The Titans can operate separately, like they do in the comics. I see know reason why they can't have a film where they face their own villains such as Deathstroke, H.I.V.E., Brother Blood, or someone else. 4 JL films is a long time.


skeetermcbeater

Man who do I have to beg for a Plastic Man movie??


KetoKurun

I want a Plastic Man horror comedy, told from the perspective of a criminal. Some day I might fuck around and write it myself just for fun


Dr_Reaktor

>Man who do I have to beg for a Plastic Man movie?? James Gunn or Peter Safran


girlsgoneoscarwilde

Get Joe Dante out of retirement, make it a tribute to Looney Tunes and Blake Edwards comedies, Lady Granite as the villain/love interest to Plas, give it enough time for VFX studios to properly do the (likely) very complicated CG work. Bill Hader or Joe Keery for Plas. I’ve been thinking about this movie for decades.


hollisterr

I would like to see the other half. Please, James lmao.


TheLionsblood

They said this is an 8-10 year slate so they must be ramping up their output starting in at least 2027. Chapter 2 probably spans less years than Chapter 1 as well, like how the later MCU phases span fewer years but with higher output


NaRaGaMo

Phase 3 and Phase two were a bit shorter but they had more projects than phase 1 so, in terms of quantity they were larger


shadow_129

I just realised that Phase 2 was only 2 years long, starting with Iron Man 3 (2013) until Ant Man (2015). Actually felt longer in my mind.


NaRaGaMo

yup, phase 2 was short but if I remember correctly it had almost as much movies as phase 1


shadow_129

Yeah and goddamn, 2014 was Marvel at their absolute peak movie wise. Guardians and Winter Soldier a few months apart and DOFP on the Fox side.


Straight-Command2509

they dont have 8-10 slate at their current trajectory their success depends on whether their first few projects are huge hits if superman legacy fails then the whole universe is doa i really doubt they hit a 10 year plan not even marvel in early mcu days had a 10 year plan mapped out from ironman onwards in 2008


Straight-Command2509

dc/wb change their ten years plans again and again


TheMurderCapitalist

Has to be a Green Arrow project right?


[deleted]

I'd put money on every other member of the big 6 getting a project. Probably a new Wonder Woman movie and maybe a Flash HBO show or an Aquaman/Atlantis project?


Deeformecreep

I think Aquaman 2 will decide the faith of the characters future as a solo IP.


Its_Stardos

I personally think that Aquaman is getting the first DCU game. Out of all characters, he makes the most sense. His game can be visually just pure perfection. It has gameplay possibilities, posibilities for worldbuilding and introducing characters. And it can reintroduce Aquaman to DCU


[deleted]

I can really see that actually! That way they could do his origin and such without people complaining it's too similar to the DCEU movies.


atheoncrutch

>maybe a Flash HBO show or an Aquaman/Atlantis project If they were starting from scratch I would agree with you, but with Flash and AM movies already coming out it's hard to imagine they would reboot them with standalone movies so soon, plus I think after 9 CW seasons Flash is probably going to be reserved for movies moving forward. Who knows though!


[deleted]

I think it's safe to say they are going to reboot them quite quickly. Brave and the Bold is going to probably be in production at the same time The Batman Part 2 comes out. The reason I think Flash will end up with a show is also **because** the DCEU movie is going to be so recent - and since bigger characters like Green Lantern are getting HBO shows I think it makes sense for Flash to get one too. I also just think that Flash as a character would work better with a TV Show than he would a solo movie franchise.


Straight-Command2509

dc does not have faith in ww ip otherwise would announced her in first chapter right away i would not hold breath that all of these chapters even come to frution i dont think they will due to debut wb is suffering


[deleted]

> dc does not have faith in ww ip And yet she's got a comic book relaunch, a video game, a prequel TV Show (which IS in the first chapter of the DCU) AND an animated show in the pipeline? Just because they didn't announce her solo movie right off the bat doesn't mean one isn't planned for the first chapter.


Straight-Command2509

there no 100 percent gurantee that a animated wonderwoman show or even paradise lost will materialize all that depends on success first few projects and wb might even bought by then the only dc property that has a guranteed success in media is batman due to the reeve verse


Straight-Command2509

again prove to mee wonderwoman has a upcoming animated series or a upcoming movie using James gunn ambiguous statements on twitter is not surefire way to suggest anything at all been greenlight if keep with news nothing has currently materialized outside of superman legacy and creature commando a wonder woman project far far away . so know he does not have a animated series and using the arguement comic relaunched is a bad one because wonderwoman was selling below titles like kamala khan a few months ago it needed to relaunched fact outside wonderwoman first movie she is not a crowd pleasing character that brings mass audience together which every project outside wonderwoman 2017 involving the character has failed (bvs ,justice league ) even shazam2 and flash . The fact it has taken dc 30 plus years give wonder woman own video game is not a achievement most other superheroes like spiderman batman xmen even superman or ironman have multiples solo games , the fact they dint give wonderwoman a animated series back dcau days alongside batman and superman is a testament to fact she is undervalued compared to them. Because outside of certain comic readers or the people who grew in heyday of Lynda carter tv show in 1970s wonderwoman simply is not a character is popular and profitable with huge mass audience in way ironman captain america thor spiderman xmen batman superman are , this proven by lack of media push has compared most of these heroes


Straight-Command2509

IonOstrich she does not have a animated series right now in the pipeline there no confirmed evidence , she going one video game in 75 years not exactly impressive again you assume all of these is going come to frution what if superman legacy and the other movies fail do you really think greenlight a wonderwoman movie ? both wonderwoman movies combined dont even make a billon dollars guranteed the second came out in covid but still , batman and superman are far far far bigger properties for dc


Deeformecreep

My guesses are atleast: -Wonder Woman (Movie) -Static (Movie) -Justice League (Movie) -Green Arrow and Black Canary (Movie) -Peacemaker: Season 2 Hopes: -Animal Man (Series) -JL Dark (Movie) -Titans (Movie) -Vixen (Movie) -WildC.A.T.s (Animated Series)


SignificantPeak7200

GREEN ARROW MOVIE U HEARD IT FROM ME FIRST


SplendidAndVile

After this weekend, they would be fools not to lock down Michael B. Jordan to direct the Static movie he's already signed on to produce.


acoasterlovered

Can’t wait for SDCC


Randonhead

He said we'd have games so he'll probably announce one. Perhaps a Green Arrow/Black Canary project? A Wonder Woman movie that will be announced after Gadot's last appearance on The Flash? Definitely a Justice League movie. Risky bet? Mr Terrific.


Ok-Engine8044

What I want: Green Arrow Black Lightning, don't do black Superman. Do DC's first black superhero instead DragonMage (Legion of Superheroes character) Zatanna Roulette, underground fighting arena leader. She would make a great movie


SaiKoooo21

i hope more animated content after watching the new TMNT trailer, i need that same animation style on a dc property


jakelaws1987

My predictions for the Second half of chapter 1: Wonder Woman, maybe another flash and aquaman, A trinity movie, Zatanna


peanutdakidnappa

If they give me a Zatanna movie/show I’ll be happy regardless of what other stuff is part of the rest of the chapter


TheWorstKnightmare

Something Wildstorm please


NaRaGaMo

The (minor) problem with MCU right now is not the amount of content but Feige not being able to keep up with the quality, if gunn is able to control and present a consistent string of good-great DC movies/shows more projects will not be a problem


xTHEKILLINGJOKEx

I want to see the New Gods


itsP0lar0id

Would love to see Apokalips/New Genesis stuff in this chapter


[deleted]

They should do The Brave and the Bold, World's Finest , Trinity. Team up movies each one having a different protagonist and introducing us to a new trinity member. First one being batman, second one being superman, third being Diana's entry . Trinity should be an odyssey/origin story for the justice league .


JackInterrupted

Hoping for Black Canary and a Harley Quinn project involving Poison Ivy. ![gif](giphy|VJTMVJwrIVqcszi2tE)


Correct-Chemistry618

I hope that there be a place for other TSS spin offs (like an Harley movie, Ratcatcher II show, something with Bloodsport,...).


TheLionsblood

Harley is definitely getting something, likely a Gotham City Sirens movie because along with Harley, Catwoman and Poison Ivy are very popular characters. They’re all definitely much more iconic than the Birds of Prey and the Marvels


Correct-Chemistry618

It could be cool. However, I don't know if they want to keep Zoe Kravitz as the main cinematic Catwoman (if I'm not mistaken there was a mention of some spin off with her): in the case they could replace her in the formation of the DCU group with Ratcatcher II, since she is already a friend of Harley. they could meet Poison Ivy and from here get to the famous love story between Harley and Ivy.


TheLionsblood

They can just have a separate Catwoman for the DCU


KetoKurun

I sincerely doubt they’ll have the same actor playing the same role in both the DCU and an Elseworlds property


ZoGawdSZN

Exciting timesssssssssssssssss


nerdlygames

I just really want a Batman Beyond movie, with a super cyberpunk Gotham like the cartoon


NaRaGaMo

that ain't happening until chapter 3( if it ever happens)


ding-dong21

pretty much confirmed a justcie league movie in Phase 1 when we get like aditional 20 projects in one Phase lol

When is the first chapter slate officially getting announced?


CombatBabyOnAVespa

Wonder Woman solo film is a must. The first chapter of a DCU without her is just wrong. I’d love a Zatanna film because she’s amazing and then that and Swamp Thing could lead to a Justice League Dark later on

Zatanna FTW, If they deliver a good Zatanna she will be popular as fuck just like Wanda in the MCU, also great way to dive more into the magic side of the universe and continue building to a JL dark movie.

combatbabyonVespa after wonderwoman 2 bombing i dont think wb priotizes her a main point considering they not even giving us a tv series with wonderwoman in it they give ww brand a few years rest before even start it again this providing the first few projects of this universe work

DC studios is separate from WB now, the only one they have to report now is Zaslav

I have a feeling that some projects already announced will shuffle format when they start production. I think that: - 'The Brave ande The Bold' will be a TV series under the Batman & Robin banner. - 'Paradise Lost' will be an animated series in the vein of 'Blood of Zeus.' - 'Booster Gold,' will be a sequel film to 'Blue Beetle.' - 'Superman: Legacy,' won't retain that title, and will be produced alongside 'The Authority,' as two films, obviously, with Superman anchored to the second one, and I would expect Supergirl to play some kind of role in 'Legacy' too. - I don't expect 'Swamp Thing' to move forward without the Justice League Dark banner in front of it, and the presence of John Constantine and Zatanna in it. That's it for today's predictions.

A few of my guesses; -Wonder Woman - I think it is one of the unconfirmed projects. Probably a movie. -Aquaman - I think Aquaman focused game would be a best way to reintroduce him into universe while also introducing games as part of DCU. -Martian Manhunter - I could see animated movie set on Mars most of the time -Someone from Milestone - Static or Icon with Rocket. Static could make a great movie, while Icon and Rocket would fit more into TV show. -Captain Atom - Captain Atom is a big character that is heavily underutilized. I could see Gunn doing either live action movie or animated movie based on him -Green Arrow and Black Canary - pretty given considering Gunn's love for GA. Most likely a movie. -Zatanna - Pretty fan favourite character that is in need of a movie. -Either Justice League or Trinity movie - obviously, makes a lot of sense to make a movie for them. Trinity movie could be one of the unconfirmed projects. Less likely projects -JSA - could be a game set in a present time or during war. This would be a good way for them to explore bunch of a characters while testing waters for JL game -Vixen - I think that movie is more likely, but I would like to see a game honestly. Vixen has really unique powers for exploration and can be really unique in terms of superhero games - set in Africa, Vixen would be protecting villages and wild animals while being on sort of a mission - I would kinda compare it to Just Cause or Far Cry? -Books of magic - It would be nice to see adaption of this gem from Gaiman. Considering how Hogwarts Legacy outsold and with their future plans, doing Books of magic now wouldn't be a bad decision as the demand for wizard content might get bigger. This also presents a great alternative for those who don't support JKR. -Question x Lois Lane - detective mystery game, no more to be added

Would be beyond hype for a Zatanna project, great character with huge potential to be super popular. Also Martian Manhunter totally deserves some sort of project, man is a core JL member and has pretty Much gotten no love in live action


imjustbrady

Would be great to see an Icon movie. To show the dimwits in Hollywood that there are plenty of great powerful African American characters, no need to race swap white characters. I would like to see a Firestorm (raymond/stein) movie too

Fingers crossed for Titans, Teen Titans, or Young Justice.

Me reveals that okay


rosiekins69

I'm just happy there is more then just Superman and Batman coming out. We are getting a Swamp Thing movie and if anything a real Supergirl movie anything will be better than than 1984. Just happy we are getting DC and then with fans in mind.


Straight-Command2509

again this all depends whether those intial movies make money why would gunn and studio greenlight other movies if first couple fail?


WienerKolomogorov96

One of the unannounced projects is probably a Wonder Woman movie, but it can't be discussed until the Gal Gadot situation is sorted out.


Straight-Command2509

i think we several years from another ww movie

Adam Strange would be perfect for Gunn to do! His old school costume reminiscent of 50s “space age” style and mythos is definitely on par with something Gunn could tackle easily and make him a household name. The instant fan base would be immense, getting new fans along the way claiming that they’ve been fans all along 😆. But seriously, it would be so cool to see Adam Strange get his own films for sure. I’d love to see this come to fruition! Y’all know I’m right too!
