Warner bros announce superhero films through 2020

^ Okay, won't lie, that was pretty cute.

Via IGN, back on the Flash front, Iris West actress Kiersey Clemons has said:

"Rick was one of the main reasons I wanted to do the movie ... So him not being a part of it is obviously very upsetting to me."

"Ezra [Miller, who plays the titular superhero Barry Allen] and I are going to do what we promised to do from the beginning," Clemons told THR. "No matter who the director is, I am going to do what I think Iris should be."​

... Yeah, I'm sticking with my pet theory on this one.

Harley Quinn and The Birds of Prey might just be coming. Christina Hodson (also writing the TF Bumblebee spin-off movie), is attached to the DC property, according to Deadline.

Characters for whom the world moves in slow motion, on the big screen? That'll never catch on.

I saw Criminal last night. It's a pretty decent spy thriller with a sci fi twist and Kevin Coster is great in it. Check it out if you can. I also got a kick out of the fact that the entire cast was made up of people who played DC characters.

Kevin Costner - Pa Kent
Gal Gadot - Wonder Woman
Antje Traue - Faora

Ryan Reynolds - Green Lantern
Tommy Lee Jones - Two-Face
Gary Oldman - Commissioner Gordon
Colin Salmon - Walter Steele (on Arrow)

Aquaman gets a release date: October 5th 2018

It was originally penciled in for July 2018, which is now available for either The Batman or The Flash.

 

[Enterprise is Great]

Patrick Wilson cast as Orm, Aquaman's half brother aka Ocean Master

Meh, Flash is a guy in a suit who runs really fast. That's a good fit for a modestly budgeted CW show with a posse of entertaining sidekicks, but not something that cries out to me as needing a huge IMAX canvas the way Spider-Man and his skyscraper swinging does.

This is your argument for not doing a Flash movie on the big screen? This is it? Well, I disagree.

So who's left from Watchmen that hasn't joined the DCEU yet?

So who's left from Watchmen that hasn't joined the DCEU yet?

In other words, why the heck haven't they cast Malin Åkerman yet?!

(There's also Matthew Goode but who cares?)

 

[Nerys Myk]

Malin Akerman as Hawkwoman.

Ayer and Robbie are back for the Gotham City Sirens movie.

^^
It's a good thing Ayer is not also writing the script this time.
Suicide Squad could have really benefited from someone else going over his script...

 

[Captain of the USS Averof]

I'm just waiting (wishing) for the announcement that Armie Hammer has been cast as the new Hal Jordan - Green Lantern…
Come on WB/DCEU, make it so!

 

[Set Harth]

So who's left from Watchmen that hasn't joined the DCEU yet?

Wilson had already joined the DCEU: he was the voice of the POTUS in Dawn of Justice!

Well, that and the fact that he already has a perfectly entertaining, if somewhat insubstantial, live-action show going, yeah. Deal with it.

I'm glad to see Ayer back, but I am a little surprised to see it after the reaction to SS. I wonder if they just decided to ignore the overall reaction since he made them a bunch of money, or if it was Margot Robbie wanted to work with him again?

 

[M.A.C.O.]

Ayer was very appreciative of the fans and the general audience who helped make the film a financial success. He thanked them several times on twitter.

Critic reviews aside, SS was the biggest hit of his career so far. He enjoyed working with the cast and making them film, and I surmise reports of him having sour grapes with WB were exaggerated. Since he agreed to come back so soon.

 

[JD]

Oh, yeah I can see he'd want to come back, I'm just surprised WB would actually want him back.

Warner Brothers ousts Greg Silverman, promotes Toby Emmerich

http://variety.com/2016/film/news/t...ent-officer-greg-silverman-ousted-1201942510/

Emmerich's run at New Line was considerably more consistent and profitable, with only a handful of smaller mid-range flops (mostly comedies like Hot Pursuit) and only one big-budget flop (Jack the Giant Slayer).
