So I am trying to understand this statement from the press release " And, in a massive expansion of the Studio’s DC Entertainment-branded content, Warner Bros. Pictures and New Line Cinema will release a slate of at least 10 movies—as well as stand-alone Batman and Superman films—from 2016 through 2020 that expands this prized universe of characters:
o “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” directed by Zack Snyder (2016)
o “Suicide Squad,” directed by David Ayer (2016)
o “Wonder Woman,” starring Gal Gadot (2017)
o “Justice League Part One,” directed by Zack Snyder, with Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill and Amy Adams reprising their roles (2017)
o “The Flash,” starring Ezra Miller (2018)
o “Aquaman,” starring Jason Momoa (2018)
o “Shazam” (2019)
o “Justice League Part Two,” directed by Zack Snyder (2019)
o “Cyborg,” starring Ray Fisher (2020)
o “Green Lantern” (2020)
When exactly are they supposed to include these stand alone Batman and Superman films are we finally going to see 3 comic book movies from one studio in one year. The movie lineup is great, but what was absent were the stand alone Batman and Superman movies. Those two characters make up the the spine of the DC universe untill they build some momentum , however they were absent from this line up except for the 2 justice league movies.
And on that note are I hear rumors that Green lantern will have a cameo at the end of Batman V Superman and will be in the line up in Justice league part 1. I certainly hope that is the case as I can not imagine 2 justice league movie with out this core memeber. They can work on origin and futher stories in his stand alone but to be absent from the 2 justice league movies would be joke as he is and has always been a core memeber.
