Just this morning I was thinking of starting a thread about the future of DC movies and low and behold I find an article,https://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/nailbiter111/news/?a=97067 addressing just that.
It seems DC is gaining its confidence and is ready to announce a film series based on DC comics, as to which characters they will introduce it does not specify but he does state that one of those movies will be a " Justice League"
DC has gotten of to slow start in terms of announcing upcoming projects in comparison Marvel is already moving to Phase 3 of its movies with Ant Man and the announcement of Captain America 3.
I am looking forward to this as I think DC has a wealth of characters and great story lines to tell all they need is the talent to bring them to life and despite peoples opinion to its last project, Man of Steel, I think that movie demonstrated that they can produce successful entertaining movies post the Dark Knight era.
I hope they branch out beyond the 2 core characters Batman and Superman , but for the time being I see them building on the popularity of these two characters before venturing to other lesser know ones.
Assuming that they don't break from the traditional formula which is to adapt successful comic book stories I almost certain that they would adapt the Death and Return of Superman as well as A death in a family and the Red Hood story line as they are quite popular considering the first popularity has reached an Iconic stage as it was so well executed and the second also involved the death and subsequent return of a beloved character albeit a more anti hero.
Both story arch were very up and coming for their time.
Similar to what marvel has done with Thor, depicting it as royal affair and guardians in the galaxy as avengers in space, DC has its own royalty in Aquaman and its own space adventures in Green Lantern. Both of which provide great plot lines as anyone you has read the recent story arch's can attest to. Geoff Jones has done great work reviving both characters.
Well what more can I say except " And here we go !!!
