With the reboot of Zack Snyder’s Dceu by James Gunn, the decade-long franchise came to an end. Though the films were marred with mismanagement issues and many behind-the-scenes controversies, there were moments of excitement from casting announcements and concepts for films that kept the fans ecstatic.
One such moment was the announcement of Ben Affleck as Batman in Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. The filmmaker revealed the actor’s first look as the Caped Crusader for the first time 10 years ago and shut many naysayers up. The reveal still holds a special place in the hearts of fans as the actor’s performance received acclaim.

A first look at Creature Commandos is right around the corner, Superman is still shooting, and Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow should begin production later this year. Oh, and work on Peacemaker season 2 is also well underway.
The new Dcu is rapidly taking shape and it's looking increasingly likely Max's Lanterns will be next to reveal its cast and creative team.
It's previously been reported that DC Studios has enlisted Chris Mundy (a writer and producer for Criminal Minds) as Lanterns' showrunner, and scooper @MyTimeToShineH is today claiming that comic book writer Tom King is a co-writer on the show.
We know he's part of Gunn's Dcu braintrust and penned the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow series the movie is named after and based on. He also counts the likes of Batman, Wonder Woman, and Mister Miracle among his many DC Comics credits.

Jason Statham is someone who is admirably unpretentious and genuinely grateful for his success, and within that, he has a definite preference of films that can predominantly define his career. Earlier this year, Statham was seen in The Beekeeper, a seemingly usual action B-movie fare with the star, but the movie from Suicide Squad director David Ayer would throw in some bold conceptual curve balls to the normal vengeance tale. Deadline has now reported that Statham will be working with director Baltasar Kormákur for his next action film.
Kormákur’s resume features such credits as Contraband, 2 Guns, Everest and the recent Idris Elba lion attack film, Beast. According to Deadline, “In the currently untitled pic, Statham will play Mason who lives in isolation in a remote Scottish island. When he rescues a young girl from the ocean in a terrible storm, he sets a chain of events in motion...

Chris Pine shares his thoughts after a casting director for The O.C. said he lost out on a role due to his acne.
In 2023’s Welcome to the O.C.: The Oral History, casting director Patrick Rush talked about Pine reading for Ryan Atwood, which eventually went to Ben McKenzie.
“I hate saying this, but it’s the truth: Chris Pine was at the age where he was experiencing really bad skin problems. And it was at that point where it looked insurmountable,” Rush said in the book via the Av Club. “And as a kid who grew up with horrible skin, it just broke my heart.”
Pine appeared on the Happy Sad Confused podcast where he was asked about Rush’s comments and said, “It’s a part of my life. The man didn’t have to talk about it. I mean, it’s his prerogative.”

James Gunn’s series “Peacemaker,” starring John Cena, will be one of the rare DC properties that will carry over into the newly rebooted and reset DC Universe. While Gunn’s new DC Studios basically scrapped much of the past Dceu a new casting announcement for the second “Peacemaker” season is highlighting some of the connective tissue he intends to bring to the new DC.

More than two years after "Peacemaker" season 1 aired its finale, the second season of the DC series is finally coming together. DC Studios co-head James Gunn has revealed an intriguing bit of casting for the show as production gets going, with Frank Grillo returning to the DC Universe as Rick Flag Sr. We say "returning" because Grillo is already playing the part in the upcoming animated TV series "Creature Commandoes." So yes, he will be making the jump from animation to live-action. This brings a plan Gunn has had in place since the beginning of this DC reboot full circle.

Despite mostly positive initial reactions, Patty Jenkins Wonder Woman 1984 was widely panned by critics and fans alike when it was released, but the movie does still have its share of loyal supporters - and can count one of its stars among them.
After being killed off at the end of the first movie, Chris Pine's Steve Trevor returned under somewhat bizarre circumstances in the sequel for a reunion with Gal Gadot's Amazonian hero. In the end, Diana was forced to "wish" Trevor back out of existence in order to defeat Maxwell Lord (Pedro Pascal), and the couple shared an emotional farewell.
While chatting about his most iconic roles with Entertainment Weekly, Pine defended WW84, and said he believed the movie was given such a hard time because it focused more on "forgiveness and compassion" than the usual superhero fare.

Not Like Us is making all the way up on Billboard as it continues to outpace its competition as the feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar escalates. It is likely that Lamar’s diss track will make it to the top, the only problem remains: which one? Writers of the popular American entertainment magazine have the same question.
The diss track aimed at the Canadian rapper also shattered one of the records on Spotify. The song dethroned Girls Wants Girls, which had the most hip-hop song streams in a single day. As of now, the track holds over 28 million views on video sharing platform YouTube.

Paramount+ has renewed superproducer Taylor Sheridan’s spy thriller “Lioness” for Season 2, the streaming service announced Thursday.
The renewal comes with a slightly modified title; previously the show was known as “Special Ops: Lioness,” leaving open the possibility that it could be an anthology series focusing on a different special operations team each season.
But the original story will continue, and stars Zoe Saldaña, Laysla De Oliveira, Michael Kelly, Morgan Freeman, and Nicole Kidman. Saldaña and Kidman will continue to serve as executive producers, and Freeman will be upped to series regular after recurring in Season 1.
The series also stars Dave Annable, Jill Wagner, Lamonica Garrett, James Jordan, Austin Hébert, Jonah Wharton, and Hannah Love Lanier.
“Lioness” tells the story of Cruz Manuelos (De Oliveira), a Marine who is recruited into the CIA’s all-female Lioness program and sent to infiltrate a terrorist organization by befriending the suspected leader’s daughter,...

Back in November, Mark Hamill told fans at Fan Expo San Francisco that he would no longer be portraying the Clown Prince of Gotham.
Despite being considered by many to be the best Joker of all time, Hamill believed he just couldn't play the role unless it was opposite Kevin Conroy's Batman. Conroy, who voiced Bruce Wayne/Batman across several projects, passed away in November 2022.
But it seems there was a little caveat that allowed for Hamill to reprise the iconic villain role one final time in an upcoming game called MultiVersus. As it turns out, prior to his passing, Kevin Conroy also voiced Batman in the fighting game. It's perhaps for this reason that Hamill made an exception to his previous statement and returned to the role of Joker in the game.
For those unfamiliar, MultiVersus is a free-to-play platform fighter, in the same vein as Nintendo's Super Smash Bros.

Patty Jenkins Confirms Wonder Woman 3 Is Dead; Says DC Studios Are "Not Interested" In The Character

Despite Gal Gadot's insistence that she'll return as Diana Prince, all signs point to her time as Wonder Woman having ended. James Gunn has already cast a new Superman and is searching for Batman, so there's no reason to believe he'd keep the Dceu actress around.
The plug was pulled on Wonder Woman 3 pretty soon after DC Studios was formed as it didn't fit into their direction for the new Dcu.
That meant Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 1984 writer/director Patty Jenkins was given her marching orders, and she confirmed the planned threequel isn't happening during a recent interview.
Asked if the movie has been scrapped, the filmmaker said, "Yeah, for the time being, but probably easily forever." Asked if another director would take her place, Jenkins responded, "No, they’re not interested in doing any Wonder Woman for the time being."

The first full-length trailer for Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part Three has just hit (via Toonado.com), and it teases what looks to be a high-stakes finale to this animated trilogy (and the Tomorrowverse as we know it).
With the Anti-Monitor on the loose, a whole host of heroes assemble to save the Multiverse, but it looks like that will be easier said than done when they also have Lex Luthor to contend with. Several other villains are also spotted, including The Joker, Scarecrow, and Two-Face.
In terms of cameos, the trailer ends with another Batman: The Animated Series tease. Batman Beyond also appears, but perhaps the biggest surprise comes when we return to the world of the Super Friends!

George R.R. Martin is known for his A Song of Ice and Fire book series, which would become the legendary HBO series Game of Thrones. The writer has been in the business for decades and has contributed his storytelling to multiple franchises, including the Wild Card anthology series of novels as well as the Elden Ring games.
Martin’s writing in Game of Thrones is known for its merciless killing of fan-favorite characters. Fans at the time were surprised by an important death in each season and many times the arcs of these characters were not even complete before their demise. The author mentioned that when he was younger, he loved The Avengers #9 comics because of one character’s death.

Chris Pine unarguably looks effortlessly perfect in every single role he dons, and the same was the case when he played the fan-favorite character of Steve Trevor in the Wonder Woman franchise. Yet, as immaculately as he performed in this role that went on to win the hearts of fans from all across the globe, what’s surprising is that the actor actually never wanted to play him.

Although it may seem unbelievable to many, it is only true that Pine rejected the role of the beloved husband-material Steve — not once, but twice. But the reason behind his turning down the iconic part was only understandable because he felt like his character “sounded like a second fiddle,” and he, for one, had “no interest,” whatsoever “in playing the boyfriend” in a superhero movie.

Chris Pine Gets Candid on Wonder Woman 3 Cancellation: "I'm Stunned" - Main Image
Chris Pine recently opened up about the cancellation of Wonder Woman 3 by DC Studios despite the franchise's box office track record.
When James Gunn and Peter Safran took over the management of DC Studios in late 2022, Wonder Woman 3 was one of the projects that were shelved, abruptly ending the tenure of Gal Gadot as the iconic hero.
The franchise has since then moved forward with the new Dcu reboot that is set to introduce a new incarnation of Wonder Woman. So far, no new actress has been cast in the role yet.

As director Patty Jenkins confirms that Wonder Woman 3 was axed by Warner Bros, co-star Chris Pine has expressed his befuddlement at the decision.
Director Patty Jenkins, who made 2017’s Wonder Woman and its 2020 sequel Wonder Woman 1984, has confirmed that the third film in the series is essentially dead. And with the whole DC Universe now in the process of being rebooted by James Gunn, it’s likely that the whole timeline (and its characters) established by Jenkins has come to an end.
Chris Pine, who co-starred as dashing pilot Steve Trevor in Jenkins’ movies, has expressed his amazement that Warner Bros didn’t proceed with Wonder Woman 3 – a project Jenkins worked on for at least a few months before it was cancelled in December 2022.

With Gunn and Safran spearheading the Dcu reboot, it was announced that nearly all projects affiliated with the Dceu would be scrapped, with most of the original cast not reprising their roles.
This included the cancellation, or at least postponement, of the ‘Wonder Woman’ franchise, including a planned third installment directed by Jenkins and starring Gadot as Wonder Woman.
Patty Jenkins opted out of directing ‘Rogue Squadron’ in favor of helming the potential third ‘Wonder Woman’ installment. Despite Gunn and Safran’s Dceu overhaul into the Dcu, there was lingering optimism from both Jenkins and Gadot for their return to the project, until its eventual confirmation that it wouldn’t materialize.
Chris Pine, who played Steve Trevor, Wonder Woman’s significant love interest and a prominent character in Diana’s narrative, recently expressed his surprise at the Dcu’s decision to not continue Diana’s story.

With Gunn’s and Safran’s reboot of the Dcu, came the news that pretty much all projects that were under the Dceu umbrella would be canceled and that almost none of the cast would return to reprise their roles.
Of course, that also meant canceling the ‘Wonder Woman’ franchise or at the least, a planned third movie that Jenkins was supposed to direct and Gadot return to star as Wonder Woman.
Patty Jenkins even walked away from directing ‘Rogue Squadron’ to direct the potential third installment. Even after Gunn and Safran rebooted the Dceu into Dcu some semblance of hope remained both for Jenkins and Gadot that they will return to the Wonder Woman project, until it was ultimately confirmed that this isn’t happening.

Lynda Carter is paying tribute and honoring the late Jeannie Epper, the Wonder Woman stunt performer.
Epper died on Sunday at the age of 83. She performed stunts in the 1970s Wonder Woman TV series and films like The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift and Kill Bill: Vol. 2.
“I have a lot to say about Jeannie Epper. Most of all, I loved her. I always felt that we understood and appreciated one another,” Carter wrote in a message posted on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. “After all, it was the 70s. We were united in the way that women had to be in order to thrive in a man’s world, through mutual respect, intellect and collaboration.”
Carter continued, “Jeannie was a vanguard who paved the way for all other stuntwomen who came after. Just as Diana was Wonder Woman, Jeannie Epper was also a Wonder Woman.

Chris Pine is sharing his thoughts on DC axing a third installment of Wonder Woman.
The actor, who starred in 2017’s Wonder Woman and 2020’s Wonder Woman 1984, recently told Business Insider that he was “stunned” after learning a third movie in the superhero franchise wasn’t happening.
“I’m stunned that they said no to a billion-dollar franchise and decided to pivot elsewhere,” the Poolman director said. “I don’t know what the reasoning was behind that; it’s above my pay grade, but Wonder Woman is an incredible character. Patty [Jenkins] is such a thoughtful director.”
Pine played Steve Trevor, the love interest of Gal Gadot’s Diana Prince/Wonder Woman character, in the first two movies; however, he noted that he wouldn’t have been involved in a third film.
“Me. No. Homie is dead. Steve is gonzo. It would be ridiculous to try to bring me back,...

Will Gal Gadot become one of the few Dceu actors to reprise their characters in the Dcu?
If you've lost score at home, the important tidbits to remember regarding the current status of Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman is that James Gunn and Peter Safran unveiled the Dcu film slate in January 2023 and it was absent a standalone Wonder Woman movie.
Yet, despite that fact, in August 2023, Gal Gadot told the media that she had met with Gunn and Safran and had been assured that she would be returning to the role.
Since then, there's been a series of conflicting rumors and reports that state that Gadot will be back as Wonder Woman or that she's out.
Back in September 2023, the ever "reliable" @MyTimeToShine said that Gadot would be returning as Wonder Woman.

The wait is finally over! Superhero fans just received their first look at the newest version of the titular character in James Gunn's "Superman" and, well, let's just put it this way: The reaction was as inevitable as the ol' Boy Scout saving cats from trees, turning green at the sight of kryptonite, and suddenly becoming incognito after slipping on a pair of glasses. Believe it or not, fans wasted no time at all taking to social media to voice their strong opinions on actor David Corenswet's new look as Clark Kent/Superman. Deciding which faction is right is probably as much a fool's errand as bad guys putting Lois Lane in danger while Metropolis' Man of Steel is on the lookout.

A third Wonder Woman movie was in development at Warner Bros. right up until James Gunn and Peter Safran took over as co-heads of the relaunched DC Studios, and the decision to scrap the project came as a surprise to a lead actor from the previous films.
While promoting his new movie, Poolman, during an interview with Business Insider, Chris Pine (Steve Trevor) said he was "shocked" that the studio would pull the plug on a franchise that took in almost $1 billion at the worldwide box office.
"I’m stunned that they said no to a billion-dollar franchise and decided to pivot elsewhere. I don’t know what the reasoning was behind that; it’s above my pay grade, but Wonder Woman is an incredible character; Patty is such a thoughtful director.”

The DC Extended Universe we knew is a thing of the past now. After 15 movies in the office, the men in power of the franchise decided that things were not working out for the Universe. The Box Office returns and criticism from fans casting a lot of doubt about how things would pan out for the franchise that was once being touted as a competition to the MCU.
But it wasn’t meant to be. That also meant that a rumored sequel to WW84 would have to be scrapped. And Chris Pine had no qualms with that, for one peculiar reason.

Chris Pine’s role in the DC Universe was certainly iconic. Being one of the most beloved actors in the industry, his portrayal of Steve Trevor in the Wonder Woman franchise came with nothing short of appreciation. Especially following the course of the first movie, his ultimate sacrifice touched the hearts of many, making it cruel to learn that his appearance in the sequel was next to nothing.

Wes Ball is ready to rumble with his upcoming release, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. After the reboot trilogy with Andy Serkis’ Ceasar in the lead came to an end, Ball took on the reigns with new characters and a new story but set in the same (or at least similar) world. This time, instead of Ceasar, we have Noa, a young chimpanzee hunter at the heart of the story, played by Owen Teague.

Justice League: Crisis On Infinite Earths - Part Three Cover Art Reveals The Movie's Lead Characters

When the news broke during last year's San Diego Comic-Con that the Crisis on Infinite Earths comic book was being turned into a three-part animated movie, DC fans rejoiced.
The CW previously adapted the story for the Arrowverse, but this version had the opportunity to bring together countless animated characters from across the Dcau in an ambitious retelling of the story. Unfortunately, the opening two chapters have been mostly disappointing.
There's still a chance it will end on a high note, of course, and a first look at Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part Three's cover art has now found its way online (via Toonado.com).
Recreating the iconic shot of Superman holding the downed Supergirl, we also see Mister Terrific, Batman, Lex Luthor, Hawkgirl, Hourman, Wonder Woman, and The Joker. Looming in the background is the massive Anti-Monitor.
While a Watchmen movie is still expected to be released later this year,...

Chris Pine is shocked Patty Jenkins’ “Wonder Woman” franchise is dead. The actor recently spoke to Business Insider while promoting his feature directorial debut “Poolman” and said he’s struggling to understand how Warner Bros. could pull the plug on a franchise that grossed the studio nearly $1 billion at the worldwide box office.
“I’m stunned that they said no to a billion-dollar franchise and decided to pivot elsewhere,” Pine said. “I don’t know what the reasoning was behind that; it’s above my pay grade, but Wonder Woman is an incredible character; Patty is such a thoughtful director.”
Pine starred as Steve Trevor opposite Gal Gadot’s “Wonder Woman” in two Warner Bros. comic book tentpoles directed by Jenkins: 2017’s “Wonder Woman” and 2022’s “Wonder Woman 1984.” The director was developing a third movie for Gadot’s superhero when DC Studios brought in James Gunn and Peter Safran as its new leaders.

Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman has, no doubt, been one of the most favorite characters from the DC Universe, and nearly everyone who has played her to date has been widely loved in the role. One of the actresses who played her was actress Lynda Carter, who turned out to be so greatly endearing to both fans and critics that she is closely identified with the character to date.

Being widely regarded as the most accurate Diana Prince, she gave her opinions on who the next person could be to carry on the superheroine’s legacy. Surprisingly enough, she was reported to have called Sandra Bullock “too old” for the role. However, Carter later on not only debunked these reports but also claimed she had even vouched for the actress to play the DC superhero.

Jeannie Epper, the peerless, fearless stunt performer who doubled for Lynda Carter on Wonder Woman and swung on a vine across a 350-foot gorge and propelled down an epic mudslide as Kathleen Turner in Romancing the Stone, has died. She was 83.
Epper died Sunday night of natural causes at her home in Simi Valley, her family told The Hollywood Reporter.
Just one member of a dynasty of stunt performers that Steven Spielberg dubbed the “Flying Wallendas of Film” — starting with her father, John Epper, there have been four generations of Eppers in show business since the 1930s — she worked on 150-plus films and TV shows during an astounding 70-year career.
In 2007, Epper received the first lifetime achievement honor given to a woman at the World Taurus Awards and ranks among the greatest stuntwomen of all time.

In the world of comics and animations, Bruce Timm is a highly influential figure known best for his work in Dcau. An artist, animator, producer, writer, and director, Timm is a key figure in crafting the modern animated world of DC comics, particularly regarding the character Batman.

From Justice League to Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, and more, Timm has been a part of several animated movies and series centered on various DC characters. Despite being praised for pretty much laying the foundation of the Dcau that we know today, the director regrets the focus on major DC characters while sidelining others.

From Justice League to Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, and more, Timm has been a part of several animated movies and series centered on various DC characters. Despite being praised for pretty much laying the foundation of the Dcau that we know today, the director regrets the focus on major DC characters while sidelining others.

For as long as anyone can remember, there’s been this ongoing debate: DC or Marvel, who’s the best? And now, once again, it’s keeping fans awake at night, this time wondering who’d come out on top in a fight. Will it be the Justice League or the X-Men?
A still from The X-Men ’97
It is undeniable that both of these are a powerhouse of a team from DC and Marvel, respectively, each with their own set of skills and strengths. Thus, it’s hard not to imagine how they’d stack up against each other. Even though it gets pretty heated, fans aren’t holding back from sharing their thoughts.

Henry Cavil's time in the DC Extended Universe abruptly ended after his widely celebrated return as Superman in Black Adam. DC Studios decided they didn't want him to stick around as the Man of Steel, and David Corenswet was cast as his replacement.
Of course, had filmmaker Zack Snyder not been ousted from the Dceu before Justice League finished shooting, he'd have made at least two sequels to the 2017 movie.
GQ recently caught up with the director to discuss his career behind the camera. Snyder then elaborated on his decision to end Zack Snyder's Justice League with a glimpse into the future which revealed that Superman eventually falls under Darkseid's control.
We even returned to the Dceu's "Knightmare" timeline, with Batman leading a team of heroes and villains plotting to take the Man of Steel down.

Steven Spielberg’s name is pretty much synonymous with almost every iconic film there is in the history of cinema. The director has crafted some of the most unforgettable experiences for audiences throughout the years, but now he feels a pull to focus on more grounded narratives. He believes he has fulfilled his duty in the realm of outworldly spectacle and wishes to shed light on Earth-bound stories that resonate with him deeply.

As a result, he may choose to step away from big franchises like Jurassic World, as its success doesn’t bring him the same level of happiness as working on projects that hold personal significance to him.

WB Animation’s films and shows have always been streets ahead of DC’s live-action offerings. The studio is known for creating shows such as Batman: The Animated Series and Justice League, as well as films such as The Dark Knight Returns and others. The studio’s latest offering Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths will be wrapping up the Tomorrowverse.
The studio has gone through several franchises such as the Timmverse, Dcamu, and the latest Tomorrowverse. However, one of the most beloved franchises that explored many characters in the DC roster was the Dcamu which ended with Justice League Dark: Apokalips War. One of the reasons why the latter is beloved by fans is due to the ‘no limitations’ rule that the studio had which gave freedom to the writers to hold no bars. Spoilers ahead.

Star Wars has always had some of the most iconic characters of all time. From Darth Vader to Kylo Ren and General Palpatine, there has been a wide range of characters who perfectly contrast the heroes standing before them. Whether it is in front of Luke Skywalker or anyone else, their twisted mirror images become more and more interesting to watch as the franchise progresses.
Clint Eastwood’s Man with No Name became a big inspiration
One of the oldest of the lost, Boba Fett, who even George Lucas regards as one of the most significant, had been inspired by a legendary yet unexpected actor. Clint Eastwood, a respected actor and an even more skilled filmmaker became the real inspiration behind the antagonist. Especially Eastwood as the Man with No Name in the Dollars trilogy.

Wendy Williams once helped produce a movie about the late singer Aaliyah. But many people weren’t thrilled with Williams telling the singer’s story, including those closest to the star.

In 2014, Williams was behind the release of the Lifetime movie Aaliyah: The Princess of R & B. The feature chronicled the life of Aaliyah’s journey to superstardom, her relationship with acts like R. Kelly, Missy Elliot, and Timbaland.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Williams asserted that she did the movie to do Aaliyah’s story justice. Although she was aware there would be some controversy after helming the project.
“Lifetime needed to tell this story correctly. Fans won’t say, ‘Oh, my God, how could you disgrace her memory?’ And nosy people like me who want to find out things will also be fine,...

Paris Hilton’s 11:11 Media has optioned Sarah Ditum’s book “Toxic: Women, Fame, and the Tabloid 2000s,” which examines pop-culture misogyny in the early 2000s through the stories of nine female celebrities of the era — including Hilton herself. The company plans to adapt the book as a docuseries.
“Toxic” offers a deep dive into the stories of Hilton, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Aaliyah, Janet Jackson, Amy Winehouse, Kim Kardashian, Chyna and Jennifer Aniston. The book explores their battles with fame, their efforts to control their own narratives, and their various degrees of success and failure in doing so. Ditum portrays her subjects as nuanced individuals confronting the challenges of celebrity amid a “ruthless and rapidly evolving media environment” and “how their experiences influenced broader perceptions of identity, body image, relationships and ambitions that still resonate today,” per 11:11 Media’s announcement.

Justice League was one of those shows that really dived deep into DC lore, pulling characters from across its run, all the way from the golden age to the modern run of comics. This requires some changes to be made to the characters to make them more appropriate for the animated run.
Justice League Unlimited
The show introduced a myriad of villains, some of which were very deep cuts from the comics. Of course, some of them were the most popular during their respective runs, when sensibilities towards creating characters were different. So, when Eclipso was supposed to be introduced in the show, Bruce Timm decided that the character needed a little updating.

Last year, Gunn and Safran introduced new plans for the “Dcu,” a cinematic universe intended to replace and reboot the Dceu. The initial phase, dubbed ‘Gods & Monsters,’ encompasses animated projects and live-action shows set in Themyscira long before Wonder Woman’s era.
Although the animated series ‘Creature Commandos’ debuted first, the true kickoff of the Dcu will be ‘Superman,’ a live-action film centering on a younger Superman, effectively supplanting Cavill’s established Man of Steel. While the movie is still far from release, we’ve gathered available information in this comprehensive guide. Let’s dive in!
The plot of the film remains a mystery, yet its inspiration is clear enough
At the Dcu reveal, Gunn mentioned that the upcoming movie draws inspiration from ‘All-Star Superman,’ despite the costume drawing from Alex Ross’ art and the logo resembling ‘Kingdom Come’ Superman at the table reading. The movie’s brief synopsis...
