DC Cinematic Universe ( The James Gunn era)

[Set Harth]

Five and a half years after the original. That’s very disappointing

Who's making this thing, Ents?

These movies were supposed to be about Batman earlier in his career, and by the time this one comes out, Robert Pattinson will be older than Christian Bale was when The Dark Knight Rises came out.

Meet the new DC movies, same as the old DC movies.

Meet the new DC movies, same as the old DC movies.

This is the same thing they did with Aquaman. A five year gap between releases of one of their biggest hit movies.

What are they thinking about? Matt Reeves’ Batman was originally slated for 2025. It’s been pushed back twice now.

Then that means that there’s 5 & 1/2 years of his career we will have missed out on.

That makes it an action/suspense fantasy and not a career documentary, then.

Looks like the Superfamily may be dominating the big-screen DCU for a while.

Pattinson is already old enough to have a kid Damien's age. Cast him in Brave and the Bold.

Robert Pattinson is already 38 years old. I no longer see the point of him portraying Batman as a younger man. He is currently only four years younger than Ben Affleck, when the latter had started production for "Batman v. Superman".

Maybe they will de-age him using AI.

Oh God.

 

[Sketcher]

Nah, double down and throw Pattinson into old age makeup, and give us The Batman Beyond.

 

[Jax]

WB cannot plan for shit.

 

[Ray Hardgrit]

I wouldn't mind a Batman Beyond movie! They could get Michael Keaton back as Old Bruce Wayne and have him mentor a new young hero and... okay never mind.

Maybe they will de-age him using AI.

Oh God.

Well, you know that too will be abused. I would not be shocked if those eternally wise creative masters at Disney/LFL tries to make Solo II starring a de-aged Ford....

Missed that - I was going by things I've seen the principals say online over the last year or two. Thanks.

What Gunn did say about the Peacemaker season-ending scene was:



If Peacemaker is possibly contemporary to the Superman film rather than set a few years in the past, this makes it less likely that the Superfriends who appear in it are the JL per se.

I wonder if that some point they'll make a "DCU" edit of Peacemaker's first season - cut out all the things no longer in-continuity with the reboot. Probably not as that would probably mean going through, figure out what is still part of the new reality and tie the hands of future DCU creatives. But since they released the Snyder cut of JL, why not?
