DC Extended Universe

(Redirected from DC Cinematic Universe)

The DC Extended Universe (DCEU) is an American media franchise and shared universe centered on a series of superhero films distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. It is based on characters that appear in American comic books published by DC Comics. The DCEU also includes comic books, short films, novels, and video games. Like the original DC Universe in comic books, the DCEU is established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast, and characters.

Warner Bros. began trying to bring various DC Comics superheroes together in films in 2002, when Wolfgang Petersen was to direct a crossover of the Superman and Batman film franchises. A planned Justice League film was put on hold in 2008. Initial universe plans were scrapped after the 2011 film Green Lantern was a critical and commercial failure. Warner Bros. finally established its shared universe with the 2013 film Man of Steel and 2016's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. This was followed by 13 films and the first season of Peacemaker, a television series for HBO Max (later renamed Max). The DCEU's fifteenth and final film, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, was released in December 2023.

The DCEU is the ninth-highest-grossing film franchise and the fifth-highest-grossing superhero film franchise, having grossed more than $7 billion at the global box office. The highest-grossing DC Comics-based film is Aquaman (2018), which earned more than $1.15 billion worldwide. However, eight of the fifteen theatrically released films failed to break even theatrically, being considered box-office bombs. Reception to the franchise was generally mixed among critics and fans.

A new rebooted franchise of films and television series, the DC Universe (DCU), is planned by James Gunn and Peter Safran, who were appointed co-chairmen and co-CEOs of DC Studios in a late-2022 restructuring. Certain DCEU characters, such as Peacemaker, Amanda Waller, and Blue Beetle, will be moved to the DCU, while the second season of Peacemaker will take place in the new universe.

Etymology

edit

Upon announcement of the film series, the universe was commonly called the "DC Cinematic Universe" (DCCU) by fans and the media, in keeping with the naming convention of the already established Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).[1][2][3] Keith Staskiewicz, writing for Entertainment Weekly, jokingly coined the term "DC Extended Universe" (DCEU) in an article about Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice on July 1, 2015.[4][5] This term and the abbreviation DCEU quickly spread among the press and fans who took it as the official name of the franchise over the following years.[6][7] According to Vulture writer Abraham Riesman, DC confirmed to him in September 2017 that the term was not used internally and they did not consider it official.[5]

In 2016, as part of DC Films Presents: Dawn of the Justice League, both Geoff Johns and Kevin Smith referred to the franchise's name as being the "Justice League Universe".[8] During the DC Films panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2018, a video banner displayed the words "Welcome to the Worlds of DC", after showcasing some upcoming films. As a result, some media outlets interpreted this as DC officially naming their shared film universe as the "Worlds of DC",[9][10] but in March 2020, Jim Lee referred to the franchise as the DC Extended Universe at C2E2.[11] The franchise was officially titled DC Extended Universe when the WarnerMedia streaming service HBO Max launched the following May.[12]

Following the appointment of Peter Safran and James Gunn as heads of DC Studios, Warner Bros. Discovery (created from the merger between WarnerMedia and Discovery, Inc.) referred to DC's film and television series as part of the "DC Universe" (DCU), which some media outlets interpreted as a rebranding of the DCEU.[13]

Development and history

edit

In 2002, Wolfgang Petersen was set to direct a Batman vs. Superman film from a script by Akiva Goldsman,[14] but the project was shelved by Warner Bros. to focus on individual Superman and Batman projects.[15][16] In 2008, a planned Justice League film directed by George Miller and titled Justice League: Mortal was placed on indefinite hold after it failed to secure tax breaks for filming in Australia.[17][18] Man of Steel, a reboot of the Superman film series released in 2013,[19] was intended to launch a shared universe if successful.[20][21] Following the film's release, Warner Bros. announced a follow-up entitled Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), establishing the DCEU.[22][23] A slate of 11 DCEU films were then announced in 2014.[24]

In 2016, Warner Bros. established DC Films after Batman v Superman did not meet Warner Bros.' box office expectations and received negative responses from fans and critics for its dark tone. The division, led by Geoff Johns and Jon Berg, was to oversee production and form a cohesive creative direction for the DCEU.[25][26][27] After the failure of Justice League (2017), Johns and Berg were replaced by Walter Hamada in 2018.[28] The DCEU expanded to television with the release of the first season of Peacemaker (2022) on HBO Max.[29]

Discovery, Inc. completed its acquisition of DC and Warner Bros. parent company WarnerMedia in 2022, forming a new company named Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) with David Zaslav as CEO. Zaslav sought to overhaul the DCEU, and began searching for a creative leader akin to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige to lead DC's film and television projects.[30] James Gunn and Peter Safran were subsequently announced as the co-chairmen and CEOs of DC Studios, the successor to DC Films.[31] In 2023, the duo unveiled their slate of ten DC projects which were to be part of the DC Universe (DCU), a soft reboot and spiritual successor to the DCEU.[32]

Man of Steel (2013)

edit
 
Zack Snyder, the director of Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and co-story writer/director of Justice League

Kal-El / Clark Kent, who arrived on Earth years ago as an infant from Krypton, struggles with why he was sent to Earth. Raised by his adoptive parents, Jonathan and Martha Kent, Clark adopts the persona "Superman", and learns if his abilities are meant to maintain peace or conquer the world.[38]

During story discussions for The Dark Knight Rises (2012), David S. Goyer told Christopher Nolan his idea regarding how to present Superman in a modern context.[39] Impressed with Goyer's concept, Nolan pitched the idea to the studio,[40] who hired Nolan to produce and Goyer to write based on the financial and critical success of The Dark Knight (2008).[41][42] In October 2010, Zack Snyder was hired to direct the film,[43] and Henry Cavill was cast as Clark Kent / Superman in January 2011.[44] Principal photography began in August 2011.[45] Man of Steel was released in North America on June 14, 2013.[46]

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

edit

Gotham City-based vigilante Batman travels to Metropolis to preemptively combat Superman, fearing what would happen if the latter is kept unchecked, while another threat endangers humankind.[47]

By June 2013, Warner Bros. were fast-tracking a sequel to Man of Steel, with Snyder and Goyer returning as director and writer, respectively.[48] Nolan was involved in an advisory role as executive producer.[49] The sequel included Batman in a main role, and serves as a reboot of the Batman film series.[22][23] Cavill, Amy Adams, Diane Lane, and Laurence Fishburne reprised their Man of Steel roles,[50] while Ben Affleck was cast as Bruce Wayne / Batman.[51] Chris Terrio was hired to rewrite Goyer's script.[52] Originally scheduled to be released in July 2015, the release date was changed to May 6, 2016, to give the filmmakers "time to realize fully their vision, given the complex visual nature of the story".[53] The film's title was revealed to be Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.[54] Initial filming occurred on October 19, 2013, at East Los Angeles College,[55] before full principal photography began in May 2014 and concluded that December.[56][57] Production took place in Detroit, Illinois, New Mexico, Africa and the South Pacific.[56][58] After another date change, the film was released in North America on March 25, 2016.[59]

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is set 18 months after the events of Man of Steel.[60] The film introduces Gal Gadot as Diana Prince / Wonder Woman,[61] Ezra Miller as Barry Allen / The Flash,[62] Jason Momoa as Arthur Curry / Aquaman,[50] Ray Fisher as Victor Stone / Cyborg,[63] and Joe Morton as Dr. Silas Stone.[64] Steppenwolf, who serves as the main antagonist in Justice League (2017), was introduced through a brief scene not included in the film's theatrical release but instead revealed online by Warner Bros. on March 28,[65] before being included in the Ultimate Edition home video release.[66]

After Superman's death, a secret government agency recruits imprisoned supervillains to execute dangerous black ops missions and rescue the world from a powerful threat, in exchange for clemency.[67]

In February 2009, prior to the development of the DCEU, Warner Bros. was developing a Suicide Squad film, with Dan Lin producing and Justin Marks writing the script.[68] Warner Bros. announced Suicide Squad in October 2014, with David Ayer as director,[24] also serving as screenwriter.[69] The main cast included Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Jared Leto, Jai Courtney, Jay Hernandez, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Karen Fukuhara, Cara Delevingne, Viola Davis, and Joel Kinnaman.[70] Principal photography took place from April to August 2015 in Toronto.[71][72][73] Suicide Squad was released in North America on August 5, 2016.[74]

Studios, Leavesden in England, as well as locations around London and in Iceland.[91][92] In May 2017, Snyder stepped down from his duties on the film due to his daughter's death; Joss Whedon filled his position on post-production, with additional scenes being written and directed by him.[93] Though Whedon was not officially credited for his role as post-production director, he completed enough additional work for a screenwriting credit on the film.[94] Justice League was released worldwide on November 17, 2017.[91]

Reprising their roles from previous films are Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Connie Nielsen as Hippolyta, Robin Wright as Antiope, and Joe Morton as Silas Stone.[88][89][90] Justice League also introduces J. K. Simmons as James Gordon,[95] Amber Heard as Mera,[96] and Billy Crudup as Henry Allen,[97] with Joe Manganiello appearing as Slade Wilson / Deathstroke in a post-credits scene.[98]

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)

edit

The divisive reaction to the theatrical cut of Justice League, with Snyder leaving directorial duties and the final cut of the film in the hands of Whedon, led to a fan-driven campaign for a "Snyder Cut" of the film. Arguments were made that Snyder's vision would be more cohesive to the previous films.[99] In March 2019, Snyder confirmed his original cut does exist, and stated that it was up to Warner Bros. to release it.[100] Warner Bros. remained silent regarding the matter, though Variety reported in November that Warner Bros. was unlikely to release Snyder's version of Justice League, with one studio insider describing it as "a pipe dream".[101] Snyder announced in May 2020 that HBO Max would be releasing his cut of Justice League on their service on March 18, 2021.[102] Initially conceived as a four-part miniseries, it was ultimately released as a four-hour film,[103] twice the length of the theatrical version.[104] Snyder stated this version is intended to not affect the future of the DCEU continuity, but that it takes place in a slightly alternate universe.[105] The new cut cost an estimated $70 million to complete, primarily for visual effects and additional photography.[106] Some actors returned to their roles for the additional photography.[107][108] Work on the cut was completed in January 2021.[109]

Characters in the film who did not appear in the theatrical version include the Joker (with Jared Leto reprising the role from Suicide Squad), General Swanwick / Martian Manhunter (with Harry Lennix reprising the role from Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice),[110][111] Darkseid (portrayed by Ray Porter),[112] DeSaad (portrayed by Peter Guinness),[113] Nuidis Vulko (portrayed by Willem Dafoe),[114] Iris West (portrayed by Kiersey Clemons),[115] Ryan Choi (portrayed by Zheng Kai),[116] a Green Lantern, as well as Granny Goodness.[117]

Aquaman (2018)

edit
 
James Wan, the co-story writer/director of the Aquaman films

Arthur Curry, a half-Atlantean assistant lighthouse keeper, sets out to lead the underwater kingdom of Atlantis against his half-brother, King Orm, who seeks to unite the seven underwater kingdoms against the surface world.

Jason Momoa was cast as Arthur Curry / Aquaman in June 2014.[50] By August, Will Beall and Kurt Johnstad were writing competing scripts for the character's solo film.[118] Aquaman was announced in October.[24] James Wan was hired as director the following year, as well as to oversee the screenplay by Johnstad.[119] David Leslie Johnson was later brought to write a new script.[120] Beall returned to write the script, based on a story treatment by Wan and Geoff Johns.[121] Johnson worked on a rewrite of Beall's script with Wan and producer Peter Safran.[122] Principal photography began in May 2017 in Queensland, Australia and wrapped that October.[123][124] Aquaman was released in North America on December 21, 2018.[125]It had a spin-off animated TV series which had only one season.

Aquaman is set after the events of Justice League, though critics have noticed numerous inconsistencies between the two theatrically released films.[126] Furthermore, Momoa claimed that the film takes place after "Zack's cut", with the ending of that version of the film directly tying into the events of Aquaman.[127] Heard reprises her role as Mera from Justice League,[123] while Dafoe is introduced as Nuidis Vulko.[128]

Barry Allen travels back in time to prevent his mother's murder, which brings unintended consequences.[218]

By July 2013, Greg Berlanti was developing a film that centered around Barry Allen / The Flash,[219] and drafted a script alongside Geoff Johns, Chris Brancato, Michael Green, and Marc Guggenheim.[220] In October 2014, Warner Bros. announced The Flash with a scheduled 2018 release date, and that Ezra Miller was cast in the starring role.[24][62] A new story treatment was being written by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller the following year in April.[221] Over the next two years, Seth Grahame-Smith and Rick Famuyiwa had individually dropped out as director due to creative differences with the studio.[222][223] Joby Harold was hired to do a page-one rewrite of the script in January 2017, which previously had drafts written by Grahame-Smith and Famuyiwa.[224] In July, the title for the film was changed to Flashpoint,[162] based on the comic book storyline of the same name.[225] Dan Mazeau was brought on as co-writer.[226] In March 2018, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein were hired to co-direct.[227][228] In 2019, following creative differences with the co-directors' work on the script, Miller was hired to co-write a new draft in collaboration with Grant Morrison.[229] By July, Daley and Goldstein had left the project, while Andy Muschietti and Christina Hodson were hired to replace them as director and screenwriter, respectively. Barbara Muschietti and Michael Disco serve as producers.[230] Filming began in April 2021,[231] at Warner Bros.

After Jaime Reyes graduates from college and returns to his hometown Palmera City, he is chosen to become a symbiotic host to the Scarab, an ancient alien biotechnological relic that grants him a powerful exoskeleton armor, turning him into the superhero Blue Beetle.

In January 2023, co-CEOs of DC Studios James Gunn and Peter Safran stated that Blue Beetle directly follows the events of The Flash,[217] where much of the franchise will be "reset" in such a way that Blue Beetle will be "totally disconnected (from everything that came before) and can be a part of the DCU".[244][245]

edit

Task Force X member Christopher Smith / Peacemaker is sent on a black-ops mission to target "butterflies", individuals possessed by parasitic, insect-like creatures invading the human race.[267]

By September 2020, a television series spin-off of The Suicide Squad centered on Peacemaker was in development for HBO Max. James Gunn served as an executive producer alongside Peter Safran, wrote its eight episodes and directed several of them.[29] John Cena reprises his role as Peacemaker from the film.[29] Filming began in Vancouver, Canada in January 2021 and concluded that July.[268][269] The first three episodes of Peacemaker were released on January 13, 2022, with subsequent episodes releasing weekly until February 17.[270] Soon after the series ended, the series was renewed for a second season, with Gunn set to write and direct every episode.[266]

The first season of Peacemaker is set five months after the events of The Suicide Squad,[271] with Steve Agee and Jennifer Holland reprising their respective roles as John Economos and Emilia Harcourt from that film.[272][273] Viola Davis,[274] Jason Momoa, and Ezra Miller also make uncredited appearances as their respective DCEU roles of Amanda Waller, Arthur Curry / Aquaman, and Barry Allen / Flash, with Superman and Wonder Woman also appearing portrayed by stand-ins, with their faces obscured by the darkness. The series contains references to the wider DC universe, including confirmation that Bat-Mite, Doll Man, Matter-Eater Lad, Kite Man, and Green Arrow exist in the DCEU.[275] Additionally, a newspaper headline detailing the Intergang can be briefly seen, ahead of their debut in Black Adam.[276]

After the second season was ordered following the positive reactions garnered by the series, with the show's creator James Gunn confirmed to write and direct all planned episodes, and John Cena set to reprise the title role,[266] Gunn stated that the new season would explore the greater ramifications from the aftermath of the first season's events.[277] Following the surprise cancellation of the HBO Max film Batgirl in August 2022, Gunn reaffirmed that Peacemaker's second season was "safe" and would continue development.[278] Later in the same month he stated that filming was scheduled to begin in 2023,[279] but in January 2023 Gunn said that the second season was delayed as he was busy working on other projects.[280]

Canceled and reworked projects

edit

Over the years, many projects that were at one point supposed to be part of the DCEU have either been moved into a different continuity, outright canceled, or unreleased. Following the end of the DCEU and reboot into the DCU, various projects that were in development have been shelved though they may be repurposed for the new continuity:

  • The Amazons : In December 2019, Patty Jenkins announced a Wonder Woman spin-off film, focusing on the titular race of Themyscira. Jenkins was intended to serve as a producer,[281] while it was later revealed that she and Geoff Johns had written the story, with a plot that was set chronologically between Wonder Woman 1984 and the planned third movie.[282][283] A similar project was later announced as a part of the DC Universe, titled Paradise Lost.[284]
  • Batgirl : In March 2017, Joss Whedon was hired to write, direct and produce a film centered around Barbara Gordon / Batgirl.[285] Production was scheduled to commence in 2018,[286] but Whedon stepped down in February.[287] In April, Christina Hodson was hired as the screenwriter for Batgirl,[288] which she would begin writing after completing work on The Flash.[289] In May 2021, Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah were hired as the film's co-directors, with Kristin Burr serving as producer.[290] In July, Leslie Grace was cast in the titular role.[291] Principal photography began in Glasgow in November 2021, and wrapped by the end of March 2022.[292][293] Batgirl was scheduled to be released sometime in 2022 on HBO Max,[294] though it was reportedly being reconsidered for theatrical release by Warner Bros. Discovery by April.[295] That August, Warner Bros. Discovery canceled the plans to release the film on HBO Max or theatrically following poor test screenings. The film was deemed not "big" enough for the big screen yet too expensive to be released on HBO Max. Despite the project's cancellation, the studio still hoped to work with Arbi, Fallah and Grace on other DC projects.[296] In January 2023, co-CEO of DC Studios Peter Safran commented that Zaslav had made the right decision with canceling the project, while providing positive statements regarding its creative team he stated that it was "not releasable". Safran elaborated that "it would not have been able to compete in the theatrical marketplace; it was built for the small screen". The studio however looks to reintroduce the character elsewhere in the franchise, while also intending to work with Arbi and Fallah in the future.[297]
  • Ben Affleck's The Batman : In July 2015, Ben Affleck was in negotiations to direct, produce, star in, and co-write (with Geoff Johns) a Batman film.[298] Affleck was confirmed as the film's director at San Diego Comic-Con in 2016.[299] Affleck stepped down as director in January 2017,[300] and Matt Reeves was hired to direct and co-produce the film the next month.[301] Under Reeves, the film shifted focus towards a younger and inexperienced iteration of the character, with the filmmaker focusing on noir and detective fiction aspects from the comics. Affleck eventually left the project altogether and was replaced by Robert Pattinson as Batman, allowing the film to drop its connections to the DCEU and establishing a separate universe.[302] The franchise that followed was later referred to by Reeves as the BatVerse,[303] and was confirmed to be a part of the DC Elseworlds banner.[304]
  • Batman Beyond : In December 2022, it was reported that a Batman Beyond film starring Michael Keaton was in development, with a script by Christina Hodson. The plot would have involved an aged Bruce Wayne, continuing the plot threads from his appearance in The Flash, and would have included Catwoman.[305] Development on the film was shelved after Gunn and Safran were appointed as co-heads of DC Studios.[306] In January 2023, Gunn and Safran said that there is potential for a future multiverse project in which they may incorporate Keaton's incarnation of Batman.[307]
  • Untitled Black Adam sequel: In April 2017, Johnson stated that DC Films planned on Black Adam and Shazam appearing in a future film together.[308] In October 2022, Johnson confirmed future plans for Black Adam to fight Superman in the DCEU, and reaffirmed plans for the character to crossover with Shazam.[309][310] That month, producers Hiram Garcia and Beau Flynn stated that the sequel was in development, with plans to fast-track production on the project.[311] Johnson publicly revealed that December that the character would not be a part of the initial slate of projects lined up for the new DC film universe under Gunn and Safran. He added that both DC Studios and his production company Seven Bucks Productions would continue collaborating in the future, and that the studio intended to "continue exploring the most valuable ways Black Adam can be utilized in future DC multiverse chapters".[312]
  • Black Canary : By August 2021, an HBO Max-exclusive film centered around Dinah Lance / Black Canary entered development with Jurnee Smollett reprising her role from Birds of Prey, Misha Green writing the script, and Sue Kroll producing.[313] In June 2022, the script was continuing to be written.[314]
  • Booster Gold : In September 2015, a buddy cop film centered around Mike Carter / Booster Gold and Ted Kord / Blue Beetle was announced to be in development with Greg Berlanti attached as producer.[315] In May 2016, Zack Stentz was hired to write the script, while Berlanti expressed interest in directing the project.[316] The script had been completed by March 2018.[317] In November 2022, after co-CEO of DC Studios James Gunn had conducted a poll on his social media asking fans which characters they would like to see included in the franchise moving forward, the filmmaker confirmed that the most requested was Booster Gold; noting that DC Studios intends to follow what the audience is wanting.[318] In January 2023, it was announced that a similar project would be developed for the upcoming DC Universe franchise, in the form of a titular television series.[319]
  • Creature Commandos : In January 2021, Gunn announced that he was developing ideas for more spin-off installments of The Suicide Squad,[320] while Warner Bros. officially confirmed that there would be additional DC projects created by Gunn in August of the same year.[321] In January 2022, Gunn confirmed he was developing another television series intended for HBO Max, while stating that the tone would be more serious than his previous work.[322] By June of the same year, the filmmaker announced that he will serve as writer and director for the show and confirmed that characters from Peacemaker will feature into the plot; while stating that the show is separate from the Amanda Waller project that was revealed to be in the works in May 2022.[323]The series ultimately became an animated show, and continued development positioned as a part of the upcoming DC Universe franchise.[284]
  • Untitled Crisis on Infinite Earths film: In August 2022, when the Warner Bros. Discovery merger was completed and Walter Hamada began preparations to leave his role as President of DC Films, it was reported that prior to these events Warner Bros. had been developing a project based on Crisis on Infinite Earths.[324] The plot would have similarly incorporated the multiverse and iterations of the main characters from alternate realities. Following Hamada's departure from the studios, the project's future realization is dependent on Gunn and Safran's plans for the franchise.[305][325][326][327]
  • Cyborg : In April 2014, Ray Fisher was cast as Victor Stone / Cyborg,[63] and Warner Bros. announced a film centered around the character was in development the following October.[328] Joe Morton was set to reprise his role as Dr. Silas Stone.[329] Morton commented that there were discussions to include scenes involving Cyborg that were cut during post-production on the theatrical release of Justice League.[330] Cyborg was scheduled to be released on April 3, 2020, before being delayed.[331][332] In April 2020, developments continued;[333] though by 2021, amidst a dispute between the actor and Warner Bros. Pictures regarding an investigation in the reshoot process on Justice League,[334] Fisher stated that he would not play the role in any film that had Hamada's involvement.[335][336] DC Films responded that they would recast the role.[337][338] In March, Fisher said that though he is not opposed to reprising the role in future DCEU films, he would prefer Cyborg to be directed by either Snyder or Rick Famuyiwa.[339] In February 2022, when discussing the Justice League's appearance in the final episode of Peacemaker, Gunn revealed that Cyborg did not feature in the scene due to the studio's "future" plans with the character.[340] In October 2023 however, it was reported that no cast members from Justice League would reprise their roles in the DC Universe.[341]
  • Deadshot : By December 2016, a film centered around Floyd Lawton / Deadshot was in development,[342] with Will Smith reprising his role from Suicide Squad.[343] In February 2019, Smith left due to scheduling conflicts,[344] and by April the character was written out of The Suicide Squad to allow Smith an opportunity to return in a future film.[183] By April 2022, production on the film was delayed in favor of other projects due to the production payroll figures that Smith had requested.[345]
  • Deathstroke : In October 2017, a film centered around Slade Wilson / Deathstroke was announced to be in development with Gareth Evans attached as screenwriter and director from a story by Joe Manganiello,[346] who was also set to reprise his role from Justice League.[347] The project was greenlit after Evans impressed executives with his pitch.[347] By April 2020, Evans was no longer in negotiations to work on the project, while the filmmaker described the story as a "dark" and "unforgiving" origin story, similar in style to Korean noir films.[348][349][350] In March 2021 after numerous delays, Manganiello stated that Deathstroke had been canceled because Warner Bros. did not consider it a priority.[346] The project was brought back into discussions with the possibility of a revival for Gunn and Safran's future plans of the DCEU in December 2022.[305] In February 2024, Manganiello revealed that he had written a screenplay during this time, before Gunn later convinced him to let the project and role go due to the soft-reboot occurring with the DC Universe franchise. Despite this, Jim Lee approached Manganiello to create a graphic novel series based on his unproduced script.[351]
  • Untitled The Flash sequel: By October 2022, the script for a sequel to The Flash had already been completed by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, with Warner Bros. anticipating a successful box office run for The Flash.[352] The script was stated to included Keaton's iteration of Batman and Calle's Supergirl.[353] The studio was not expected to retain Miller for future films because of the actor's various controversies and legal issues,[354] although some Warner Bros. executives were open to continuing to work with Miller.[355] Later that month, DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran said that until a decision was made there was potential for Miller to reprise the role in the upcoming DC Universe franchise.[356] Gunn confirmed that The Flash would reset the continuity of the DCEU and alongside Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, would lead into the DCU's first feature film titled Superman (2025).[356][357] In June, Muschietti expressed interest in featuring Eobard Thawne / Reverse-Flash, a character who was only hinted at in the first movie, as an antagonist for a sequel.[358] Though it was believed that a sequel could happen if the film could achieve financial success,[359] financial underperformance and the announcement that no actors from the Snyder's Justice League would reprise their roles ended chances of a sequel being realized.[360][361][362][341]
  • Green Lantern : Originally, the 2011 Green Lantern film was planned to be the first film in a shared DC cinematic universe, but its planned sequels were canceled in September 2011[363] and the film was eventually left out of continuity due to its critical and financial disappointment.[364] The film was later retroactively established to be set within the multiverse of DC media, designated as Earth-12 in the Arrowverse crossover event "Crisis on Infinite Earths".[365]

Pictures 2022–2023 schedule.[332][373] A similar project was later announced as a part of the upcoming DC Universe franchise titled, Lanterns.[284]

  • Static Shock : At DC FanDome held in August 2020, a live-action film centered around Static was revealed to be in development,[457] with Michael B. Jordan joining the production team as a producer alongside Reginald Hudlin in October.[458] Walter Hamada described the film as a project that could be developed as an HBO Max-exclusive film.[401] In March 2021, Randy McKinnon was hired as screenwriter.[459]
  • Supergirl : In August 2018, a film centered around Kara Zor-El / Supergirl, was announced to be in development with Oren Uziel penning the script.[460][461][462] In February 2021, Sasha Calle was officially cast in the role, with the character scheduled to first appear in The Flash.[463] A similar project was later announced as a part of the upcoming DC Universe franchise titled, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow;[284] which will star Milly Alcock in the titular role, and adapt a script written by Ana Nogueira.[464][465]
  • Untitled Val-Zod television series: By July 2021, a limited series centered around Val-Zod was in development for HBO Max. Michael B. Jordan was set to produce the series and also potentially star, while Darnell Metayer and Josh Peters were attached to write.[466][467] Jordan previously pitched a feature film centered around an African-American Superman, only to place development on hold due to his busy production schedule.[289]
  • Waller : In January 2021, Gunn announced that he was developing additional spin-off installments to The Suicide Squad alongside Warner Bros. Entertainment.[320][321] In February 2022, the filmmaker confirmed that he is continuing to work on expanding the franchise with various projects in development.[468] By May of the same year, it was revealed that a spin-off continuation television series of Peacemaker was in development, which will center around the character of Amanda Waller. Viola Davis was announced to be reprising her role from other DCEU media, in addition to serving as an executive producer on the show. Christal Henry will serve as writer, in addition to executive producing alongside James Gunn and Peter Safran.[469] The project was later repositioned as a part of the upcoming DC Universe franchise.[284]
  • The Wonder Twins : In February 2022, a film centered around Zan and Jayne / the Wonder Twins entered development for HBO Max. Adam Sztykiel was slated to make his directorial debut and write the screenplay, with Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey serving as producers.[470] By that April, KJ Apa and Isabel May were cast in the lead roles of Zan and Jayna, respectively.[471] Principal photography was scheduled to commence in Atlanta, Georgia in July,[471][472] but the project was canceled in May following WarnerMedia's merge with Discovery Inc. and the creation of Warner Bros. Discovery. The CEO of the newly formed conglomerate, David Zaslav, felt that the film's estimated $75 million-plus budget would not bolster enough of a return as a straight-to-streaming release. Additionally, Zaslav has a directive mandate that DC Films will first focus on theatrical releases, with internal criticism also stating that the project was conceived in a style deemed "too niche".[473][472]
  • Wonder Woman 1854 : In April 2024, Zack Snyder revealed that initially there had been plans to have the character of Wonder Woman in a project with the title of Wonder Woman 1854. Snyder explained that the photograph which Bruce Wayne discovers during the events of Justice League was the story that was intended to be explored first, depicting the character's continued search for her villainous uncle Ares the god of War throughout various time periods of history, and the romantic relationships she had while living as an immortal who does not age. The filmmaker stated that the image was intended to give the audience of glimpse of her time fighting in the Crimean War, while crediting Stephen Berkman with arranging the behind-the-scenes layout of the image. Further elaborating, Snyder stated that Wonder Woman's story in the DCEU would have shown her traveling to anywhere in history where there was conflict with intentions to put an end to the influence Ares over mankind. After the success of the 2017 titular movie however, the decision was made to create a sequel instead of another prequel.[474]
  • Untitled Wonder Woman 1984 sequel: After principal photography on Wonder Woman 1984 was completed, director and co-writer Patty Jenkins said that the plot for a third Wonder Woman film had been written. She revealed that the story arc for Wonder Woman was planned over three films, with the third taking place in the present.[475][476] Jenkins and Gadot planned to work on other projects before proceeding with the sequel.[477][478] In 2020, Jenkins said she had stories written for two more Wonder Woman films completed.[479] Two days after 1984 was released, a third film was officially greenlit by Warner Bros. Pictures. Jenkins was set to return as director, with a script she wrote, while Gadot was planned to reprise her role as the titular heroine.[480] In October 2021, Gadot stated that Lynda Carter would reprise her role as Asteria from 1984.[481][482] A year later, Jenkins revealed that the script for the film was completed, while also stating that she had tentative plans for further installments.[483] Filming was expected to begin in mid-2023,[484] but in December the third film was revealed to be no longer moving forward because the script conflicted with the current plans for the DCEU formulated by Gunn and Safran.[403][485]
  • Zatanna : By November 2018, Warner Bros. was considering developing a film based on Zatanna.[486] In March 2021, an AT&T investor presentation revealed that a Zatanna project was in development as an HBO Max-exclusive film,[487] and Emerald Fennell was hired as screenwriter later that month. The film was to be produced by J. J. Abrams.[488] By October 2022, the film was initially scrapped at HBO Max, but later began being shopped around to other streaming services.[393]

Expanded setting

edit

In October 2014, Geoff Johns explained that DC's approach to their films and television series would be different from Marvel Studios' cinematic universe, stating that their film universe and TV universes would be kept separate within a multiverse to allow "everyone to make the best possible product, to tell the best story, to do the best world".[489] This divide lasted until January 2020, when the DCEU was retroactively established to have connections to The CW's Arrowverse continuity via an expansion of the multiverse concept, during Part 4 of the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover. Ezra Miller reprised their role as Barry Allen in a cameo appearance alongside Grant Gustin's version of the character. During their conversation, Miller's Barry gets the idea to call himself "The Flash" from his alternate self and mentions "Victor".[490] Despite their cameo, the episode did not confirm the designated Earth for the DCEU characters.[491][492]

Miller's cameo opened up more possibilities for crossovers between DC films and the Arrowverse. President of DC Films, Walter Hamada, revealed that prior to "Crisis on Infinite Earths", DC had been structured in a way that the television division had to clear the use of characters with the film division. Now, the company could "really lean into this idea of [the multiverse] and acknowledge the fact there can be a Flash on TV and one in the movies, and you don't have to pick one or the other, and they both exist in this multiverse".[493] Arrowverse creator and executive producer Greg Berlanti agreed, feeling that "moving forward, there's more opportunity to do more things like this",[494] and was open to more film characters appearing in the Arrowverse.[493]

In August 2020, Hamada announced plans to develop a multiverse inspired by the comics. In doing so, the studio also stated that all past, present, and future projects are a part of the same unified multiverse.[302][238][401] The Flash director Andy Muschietti further explained that all previous adaptations of DC Comics were a part of the multiverse: "...all the cinematic iterations that we've seen before are valid... all that you've seen exists, and everything that you will see exists, in the same unified multiverse".[238][401] In 2023, the DCEU version of Shazam made a cameo appearance through archival footage in the Titans season 4 episode "Dude, Where's My Gar?".[495]

Timeline

edit

In the DCEU, the events of the films rarely explicitly make their exact years known.[496] Man of Steel takes place after the events of Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 1984, which are set in 1918 and 1984, respectively. Wonder Woman also has bookend scenes set in the present after the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. The events of Batman v Superman occur 18 months after the events of Man of Steel, which follows the consequences and the emergence of aliens and metahumans such as Superman.[60] The film concludes with the death of Superman, which is emphasized in Suicide Squad and Justice League, taking place approximately one and two years later, respectively.[497]

Jason Momoa confirmed that Aquaman takes place right after Zack Snyder's Justice League.[127] Aquaman is followed by Shazam!, which occurs during the Christmas season of 2018.[498] The events of Birds of Prey are set in 2020.[158] Shazam! Fury of the Gods is set about two years after its predecessor, but at least in 2021, because Billy Batson was fourteen in Shazam! while in Shazam! Fury of the Gods is seventeen years old.[499] The Suicide Squad is confirmed to take place in 2021.[500] Peacemaker is set five months after the events of The Suicide Squad.[271] In an episode of Peacemaker a newspaper page can be seen talking about the upheavals happening in Kahndaq caused by the Intergang from which it can be inferred that the events of Black Adam happen shortly after Peacemaker.[501] Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is set four years after the first Aquaman.[502] The Flash is set in 2023 and 2013 of an alternative timeline where Michael Keaton is Batman.[503] Blue Beetle is the final film in the DCEU timeline, but Xolo Maridueña will reprise his role in the DCU.[504]

Reboot

edit

In January 2023, Gunn and Safran announced the initial ten installments for the DCU, which make up a portion of the slate subtitled "Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters". They included the films Superman (2025), The Authority, The Brave and the Bold, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow and Swamp Thing, as well as the television series Waller, Creature Commandos, Lanterns, Paradise Lost, and Booster Gold. The duo were open to DCEU actors such as Miller, Gadot, Momoa and Levi reprising their respective roles,[32] though Gunn clarified that Superman would serve as the start of the new continuity, with the DCU being able to change events from the DCEU, with the DCEU properties serving "like a rough memory of what happens in the DCU".[687] The Flash film would be used to reset some aspects of the universe heading into the DCU.[245] In October 2023, Variety reported that no cast members from Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, or Justice League would reprise their roles in the DCU.[341]
