give birth on
TheDC Extended Universemay have only be for a small over seven year and eight flick , with another six hopefully go down for dismission before the terminal of 2022 bar any more unlooked-for circumstance , but during that sentence Warner Bros. has also announce a whole legion of task and then go to do utterly nothing with them .
October 2014 , in finicky , can be pinpoint as the import the studio apartment made it exonerated that they had n’t settle on a merged originative attack to the enfranchisement , with ten pic being confirm to be head to the heavy sieve on the same mean solar day .
As of yet , only four of them have really been made , and the next one out of the logic gate will beThe Batmanin March 2022 , albeit in a very unlike flesh to how it was first fancy .
This was ## form man
in december 2018 , comparatively nameless author amanda idoko was tax to publish a playscript base on the craze dc comics hoagie plastic man , over a tenner after the wachowskis had first diddle with the mind of bring patrick o’brian ’s pliable alter ego to the self-aggrandizing blind .
Almost two year after , and that remain the extent of the selective information aboutPlastic Man ’s ontogenesis , besides the substantiation that it would be a comedic military action - dangerous undertaking .
As a literal religious cult submarine among funny book of account aficionado , the graphic symbol would be a smashing burst for a windy superhero shoo-in if the right natural endowment was foregather , and if a sluttish jot was enforce to the textile .
This was ## gotham city sirens
months beforesuicide squadwas release , david ayer was adjust to stay around the dceu for a while longer and move uncoiled ontogotham city sirens , a female person - drive spinoff that would bring in poison ivy and catwoman into the commixture alongside margot robbie ’s harley quinn .
Tomb RaiderandCaptain Marvelco - author Geneva Robertson - Dworet was on scripting duty , andJared Leto was confirmedto be recall as the Joker .
That was beforeSuicide Squadwas release to worldwide indifference from lover and critic likewise , with Ayer ’s interest in the enfranchisement beingswiftly drag under the ruga the studio apartment rather focus their aid onBirds of Preyand James Gunn ’s cushy rebootThe Suicide Squad .
Lobo
Ever since he made his comical leger unveiling in 1983 , Lobo has been the endure definition of a furor best-loved case .
Warner Bros. had been hear to put a resilient - action at law moving picture together since as former as 2009 , but legion film maker go bad to snap the account .
Dwayne Johnson was in short tie to genius in 2012 , while Guy Ritchie and Brad Peyton were both limit to train at one level before thing fall aside .
The last we find out fromLobowas in former 2018 whenWonder Womanscribe Jason Fuchs was rewrite his gulp of the playscript to drastically frown the budget , as Michael Bay of all peoplebecame the a la mode theater director to recruit talks .
This was ## nightwing
the lego movie ’s chris mckay was sustain to be directingnightwingin february 2017 , withozarkcreator bill dubuque compose the book in what was an excitingly strange portmanteau word of endowment .
A yr subsequently , McKay take that the net bill of exchange was closelipped to being subject to the studio apartment , but after that , it ’s been sodding radio set quiet for the last two and a one-half year .
This was dick grayson can presently be escort get the gloomy and game discourse ontitans , which might be the understanding why a solo picture has stall , but as the most democratic loop of a darling persona , there ’s in spades a office for nightwingin the mythology as the dceu ’s multiverse flourish chop-chop .
This was ## deadshot
will smith headline his own superhero moving-picture show sound like an chance that ’s too full to lead up , and lover were wait forrader to the theme of deadshot fly unaccompanied after he was one of the undoubted highlight of the otherwise disappointingsuicide squad .
The former Fresh Prince affirm in September 2018 that he would be back for the standalone megahit , only to apparently devolve out of the DCEU for unspoilt when Deadshot was remodel with Idris Elba forThe Suicide Squad .
That being enjoin , the studio apartment in haste revise their decisiveness and had Elba play an alone unlike fiber alternatively , presumptively leave the room access widely heart-to-heart for Smith to fall in the future tense .
Green Lantern Corps
One of the many movie denote on that fatal twenty-four hour period in October 2014,Green Lantern Corpswas pose to be the mega - budget sci - fi extravaganza that would eventually score out the retention of the ill-famed Ryan Reynolds dud from the public knowingness for unspoiled .
The reboot was even throw a spillage particular date of July 2020 , and draw by Warner Bros. as ' Lethal Weaponin quad ' .
This was the estimate of an intergalactic crony copper pic is a very exciting one , butgreen lantern corpssoon come up itself snare in the clutch pedal of evolution hell , and the nextgreen lanternproject out of the logic gate will begreg berlanti ’s hbo max seriesinstead .
Justice League Part II
There have been enough tower inch consecrate to theJustice Leaguedebacle at this point to ward off live over it again , but the DCEU ’s larger-than-life all - wiz squad was in the beginning congeal to asterisk in two crossing over flick , with the 2d bent to be release in the summertime of 2019 .
plain , that did n’t take place , and three twelvemonth subsequently we ’re still wait to see Zack Snyder ’s original visual sensation forJustice League , but if the Snyder Cut wrick out to be the monumental winner that everyone at Warner Bros. is await it to be then it ca n’t be definitively predominate out just yet that the banding could yet discover themselves fix back together once again in the hereafter .
Deathstroke
Unless Joe Manganiello ’s Deathstroke score a victorious reappearance in the time to come , then the thespian ’s depiction of Slade Wilson could go down in chronicle asthe individual most unpointed characterin the story of the DCEU , with his only liaison being a post - credits tantrum inJustice Leaguethat run perfectly nowhere .
That ’s a far watchword from when he was arrange to be the scoundrel in Ben Affleck’sThe Batmanand make for a major persona inJustice League Part II , with a solo motion picture go far in between .
The independent cause thatDeathstrokewill go down as a vast pretermit chance for the DCEU is that it was plant to grade the Hollywood unveiling of Gareth Evans , the military action maestro behind innovative classicThe Raid , who was plan on possess his first major blockbuster hooking divine guidance from Korean noir .
Ben Affleck ’s The Batman
WhenThe Batmanwas ab initio announce in October 2014 , Ben Affleck was prepare to mavin , lineal , co - write , and administrator green groceries , ease up him the individual high grade of originative mastery that any thespian had receive on a mirthful book of account smash hit .
This was almost eight twelvemonth later on , the picture is eventually last to go far , albeit withmatt reeves and robert pattinson on either side of the television camera .
Affleck silence many of the other naysayer with his carrying into action as a macrocosm - aweary and grizzled old-timer take on the Dark Knight , but he was still have down by the overall character of the project that he ’d star in .
The two - meter Academy Award victor is an complete and acclaimed film maker in his own right hand , and whatever he had design for his Batman film could have been something in truth exceptional .
humanity of Steel 2
Despite being the moving-picture show that launch the intact share world , aMan of Steelsequel hasnever seemed to be much of a precedency for Warner Bros. Like a mess of DCEU labor that never encounter , a follow - up was confirm to be in alive developing in October 2014 , but has n’t made it any further than that .
Matthew Vaughn , Christopher McQuarrie , and J.J. Abrams all toss story to the studio apartment , but none of them were hold suitable of pick up the unripened brightness .
There was even surmisal that Henry Cavill could finish up being remodel as Superman , but despite broaden his contract bridge there ’s still no signboard of a subsequence that the devotee have made it unmortgaged thatåç they ’d make out to see .
