A lot is changing for DC's lineup of movies and shows in the years ahead. Luckily, despite the rash of cancellations affecting everything from the Batgirl movie to HBO Max shows like Titans and Doom Patrol, it's not all bad news. James Gunn and Peter Safran have been installed as the co-CEOs of DC Studios, and they have a strategy for a more cohesive and interconnected lineup of content moving forward. It all starts with Chapter 1, dubbed "Gods and Monsters."
It can be very difficult to keep track of all the big changes at DC these days. That's why we've put together this comprehensive list of everything currently in the works, as well as the major projects that have either been officially canceled or gone dormant.
Come join us in the reborn DC Universe. Click on through the slideshow below for a glimpse or read on for even more details...
For those keeping track, here's the full lineup of upcoming DC movies and TV shows:
•Joker: Folie à Deux (October 4, 2024)
•Superman: Legacy (July 11, 2025)
•The Batman Part II (Oct. 3, 2025)
•Superman & Lois: Season 4 (Greenlit; date TBD)
•The Brave and the Bold (In Development)
For quite some time there, there had been conflicting reports as to whether director Todd Phillips and star Joaquin Phoenix were planning a sequel to their Joker movie. The pair initially said the first film was meant to be a one-off. But in May of 2021, word came that Warner Bros. had signed Phillips to pen a sequel to the 2019 comic book film. In...
We can all stop holding our breath for Man of Steel 2. Rather than pursue a sequel to the 2013 film, DC is pushing ahead with a new take on the character with Superman: Legacy. James Gunn is currently writing a Superman movie featuring a younger Clark Kent early in his reporting career (though it won't be an origin story). The film will explore Clark's struggle to balance his Kryptonian heritage with his Kansas upbringing and deal with the challenge of being a kind hero in an unkind world. Gunn has confirmed he's directing the film, but it is shaping up to be one of the first and most important entries in the revamped DCU line.
Legacy is currently in preproduction, with Gunn having turned in his first screenplay draft shortly before the start of the WGA strike. It remains to be seen how significantly the strike will impact production. As for the cast, THR reports that We Own This City's David Corenswet is a frontrunner for the Superman role, while X-Men: First Class' Nicholas Hoult may be up for the role of Lex Luthor. Deadline, however, indicates Hoult may actually be in the running for the Superman role. Gunn has refused to comment on casting rumors.
Of course The Batman Part II is in the works with Matt Reeves returning to write and direct and Robert Pattinson putting on the cape, cowl, and eyeliner (!) again as the Dark Knight Detective. The film is confirmed to have survived the recent turmoil at Warner Bros. Discovery, and Reeves has even signed a multi-year first-look deal with the studio....
The Arrowverse as we once knew it is gone. With the end of The Flash in 2023, the only show left -- and even it claims to take place on a different Earth from most of the rest of the Arrowverse shows! -- is Superman & Lois. While observers expected the show to be cancelled after Season 3, it is in fact getting a 10-episode fourth season, reportedly...
DC has confirmed that we'll have two cinematic versions of Batman going forward, as the DCU will get its own Dark Knight alongside the standalone movies of Matt Reeves' The Batman series. The Brave and the Bold looks to deal with the full Bat-family, centering specifically on Bruce Wayne's 10-year-old son Damian. The movie will draw heavily from Gr...
The new DCU will also have a new Supergirl. Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is a movie based on Tom King and Bilquis Evely's comic of the same name. This Supergirl is one who spent much of her early life living on a fragment of Krypton that was dislodged in the planet's destruction, what Gunn describes as a "horrible situation where she watched everyb...
DC's anti-Justice League are getting their own movie in the new DCU. The Authority is a group of powerful heroes who take a far more proactive approach to meting out justice.
Swamp Thing may not have found much success on the short-lived DC Universe app, but DC is still betting big on this lumbering monster for their new cinematic universe. The Swmp Thing movie will explore the dark origins of Alec Holland's monstrous alter ego. Logan and Indiana Jones 5 director James Mangold is writing the script for the film.
