Following BATMAN V SUPERMAN Shift, WB Announces 9 More DC Movies

By Adam Holmes on Wednesday, August 6th, 2014

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice‘s release date being changed wasn’t the only big news today. To sweeten the deal, Warner Bros has finally revealed their DC film schedule up until 2020. There are no titles, but here are the films we’ll be seeing for the next six years.

That’s at least nine DC movies, three more than the schedule Nikke Finke provided in June. There’s no word yet on what some of these films will be, although The Wrap states that the pipeline is expected to include “Zack Snyder’s ‘Justice League,’ standalone spinoffs for Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman and Jason Momoa’s Aquaman, as well as a “Shazam/Black Adam” movie starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and a “Sandman” movie that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is producing and may star in.”

All of these are solid bets. Justice League is all but officially announced, Sandman already has a creative team forming, The Rock has been teasing the hell out of his Shazam-related role, Wonder Woman needed her own movie yesterday and an Aquaman solo adventure would be amazing! Other candidates for these spots could be a true Man of Steel sequel, a solo Batfleck film, and separate films for Flash and Green Lantern, unless there is some truth about the two of them teaming up in one film.

The most interesting part os this list are the entries for November 16, 2018 and November 20, 2020: “Untitled WB Event Film.” Now keep in mind that what’s listed above is the Warner Bros film schedule. Only nine of those are confirmed to be DC, so these event films may be related to another Warner Bros property, such as Harry Potter. However, the DC characters are in a league of their own (pun intended), so there’s a good chance that the event films are Justice League 1 & 2. Wait, I had an even bigger idea. What if these are Crisis films? The biggest of all the DC events! After all, if Justice League is being filmed back-to-back with Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, this means we could see it as early as August 2016 or June 2017, which saves the event film for something even more epic. Mind blown!

Overall, this sounds cool, but don’t think this lets you off the hook for San Diego Comic-Con, Warner Bros. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad you showed Wonder Woman and the Batman V Superman teaser, but you couldn’t have announced ONE movie?!?!

Is it too much to wish that Warner got their act together in their cinematic universe?

They’ve had a long long long time now to strategize and come up with a good plan to counter Marvel’s. By now they could have at least a working title/superhero to be featured instead of stating, “Untitled DC Film”. Marvel ALREADY have a locked in title all the way to 2017, and Warner can’t even confirm the Aug 2016 one???

This is really poor form by Warner.
Someone needs to get fired or hired.

The fact that they don’t have a Feige equivalent on-board is really hampering them.
Also the fact that they don’t believe in their comic character pantheon enough is telling by not putting names/titles on dates.

  Marvel has no titles either. We know that there are coming 8 movies I think till 2019, after Ant-Man, the only once we know are Doctor Strange, Avengers 3 and GOTG2. And we only know about them because there are already castings going on for Strange, Guardians 2 was announced and Avengers 3 is commom sense. The other movies don’t even have a release date.

    But at least they have some semblance of a plan in terms of which characters they will feature.
    As you said, they have castings going on.
    
    What do Warner have after BvS other than what people expect?

      Well, what does Marvel have? Marvel is only doing castings for Strange, nothing more. Ok I have forgotten that there is Cap3 already planed, but that is it. Say they have coming 8 movies after Ant-Man, then there is
      Cap3, GOTG2, Strange, Avengers3 that we know will happen. We can be sure about that Thor3 will come too. The other 3 we can speculate if it will be Nova, Ms Marvel, Black Panther etc.
      
      WB has the 9 movies after BvS. We can be sure it will be Wonder Woman, Man of Steel2, Batman and Justice League, the rest we don’t know, but there is a high propability that there will be movies with Shazam, Green Lantern and Flash. There were rumors about a Sandman and Justice League Dark movie, that is not really what I would call expected.
      
      After BvS in March 2016, that is currently in production, the next movie comes out in August 2016, so they have two years for production and maybe there are castings going on only we don’t hear anything about them and if it is going to be a Wonder Woman movie, they don’t even have to make big castings since they already got the main person.
