And in December, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will mark the return of Jason Mamoa’s Aquaman, as the actor potentially takes his final turn in the role before potentially taking on a different one in the new DCU. (For what it’s worth, Tom Cruise loved the film so much that The Hollywood Reporter was compelled to report on it.) In August, Blue Beetle will introduce Jaime Reyes (played by Xolo Maridueña of Cobra Kai fame) in an origin movie that is said to be otherwise disconnected from the rest of the DCEU, leaving room for the character to be a part of the DCU, according to Gunn. It’s expected to be a multiversal superhero movie- yes, another one-that will serve as both the conclusion to the DCEU and the setup for the new DCU, even with two more DCEU films scheduled to follow it. Next up, in June, is The Flash, which will star Ezra Miller despite the legal issues and disturbing accounts surrounding the actor that once threatened the release of the long-delayed blockbuster.
With the release of Shazam! Fury of the Gods last Friday, the year of the DCEU’s big-screen leftovers has begun.įury of the Gods is the first of four DCEU films that are scheduled to be released in theaters this year-and it’s a rather strange lineup. (And they can’t all be scrapped in favor of tax writeoffs, apparently.) Almost 10 years after it started with Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel during the summer of 2013, the DC Extended Universe as we know it is nearing its end-but it’s not over quite yet. Discovery still has a number of movies from the studio formerly known as DC Films to release. There’s a lot to be excited about as Gunn and Safran get to work, but before the first of the newly announced movies and TV shows arrive in theaters and on streaming services, Warner Bros.
During a lengthy press conference, the new cochairs and co-CEOs of DC Studios shared a promising slate of upcoming projects and, crucially, laid out how they were going to prioritize their storytelling after a messy era that had a few highs and many lows. In January, James Gunn and Peter Safran unveiled their plans for the rebirth of the DC Universe.
