Back in June, we thought we had a pretty good idea on what DC Comics and Warner Bros were planning in terms of the upcoming live-action DC Films. A rumor began circulating which said that the companies have seven titles currently in the works. These titles included Justice League, Wonder Woman, Flash and Green Lantern projects.
It’s hard to say precisely how much that information was accurate in terms of naming in-development DC Films. But if anything was sure, it was that there are a lot of DC Films set to be unveiled over the next few (or many) years.
Warner Bros and DC have now officially revealed dates for 10 (or 11 if you include Batman V Superman) projects (that we now mention as DC Films) that will be released between now and summer 2020. As well as separate “WB Event Films”. Not titles have been named as of yet, but the schedule, in descending order is as follows:
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice – March 25, 2016
Untitled DC Film – August 5, 2016
Untitled DC Film – June 23, 2017
Untitled DC Film – November 17, 2017
Untitled DC Film – March 23, 2018
Untitled DC Film – July 27- 2018
Untitled WB Event Film – November 16, 2018
Untitled DC Film – April 5, 2019
Untitled DC Film – June 14, 2019
Untitled DC Film – April 3, 2020
Untitled DC Film – June 19, 2020
Untitled WB Event Film – November 20, 2020
It’s interesting to note that Marvel will be starting to release three movies a year starting from 2017. While DC is apparently waiting a little longer to pull of the same tactics for the DC Films.
So what is it that Warner Bros and DC Comics planning for all of these release dates? More movies that will be highly likely starring Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. Not to mention there is a Justice League film. But what about Shazam, Flash, Green Lantern, Sandman, Aquaman, Green Arrow or any other character slightly rumored. And yes which of these will be treated as the sequel of the solo DC Films? All questions will be answered in time.
