Don't count on it ever making it to DC Universe. Saw it! It was fine. Obviously Clark/Superman is the lead, but I wish there had been more Lois Lane. The voice acting from Clark, Lois, and Lex was fairly flat half the time; I feel like that was a directing issue.

Guest December 28, 2020 Share December 28, 2020 Managing Movie Superheroes Is About to Get a Lot More Complicated Quote The most expensive DC movies (up to four a year, starting in 2022) are designed for release in theaters, Mr. Hamada said. Additional superhero films (two annually is the goal, perhaps focused on riskier characters like Batgirl and Static Shock) will arrive exclusively on HBO Max, the fledgling streaming service owned by WarnerMedia. In addition, DC Films, which is part of Warner Bros., will work with filmmakers to develop movie offshoots — TV series that will run on HBO Max and interconnect with their big-screen endeavors. So frustrating to see them still moving full speed ahead on shaky ground rather than taking the time build a solid foundation.

That’s why I didn’t say a single Cinematic Universe. I read it has them expanding from the idea of a single Cinematic Universe into a Cinematic Multiverse. That sounds to me like what Marvel is attempting to do with the MCU and what was done with the Arrowverse shows. To me that is still an overarching foundation. That is extremely tricky and it feels like they are rushing again. I’d rather they prove they can make a decent sequel to any of their current movies first.

Even without the allegations any sane executive would be searching for someone new with based on the terrible word-of-mouth from Birds of Prey and WW84 alone. My guess is it's a combination of Hamada and Johns having become friends along the way, and also Johns being a principal mover on the TV side (Stargirl, Titans, Green Lantern Corps) and AT&T having placed "Make HBO Max succeed" at roughly the same corporate strategic priority as "Totally fuck up the 5G rollout while raising fees." It's interesting, though; some insiders have felt free to take shots at Johns. Diane Nelson, former head of DC Entertainment, said on Twitter after she left that he was "no friend of [hers]". David Ayer, when asked why the slide in Suicide Squad that said Harley Quinn was an accomplice in the death of Robin contradicted Ayer's backstory, said that Johns had added that in after the studio took control of the movie. (Ayer's story was that, when the Joker killed Robin, Batman hauled off and smashed his mouth in, leading to the grill and the "Damaged" forehead tattoo. The Joker was seen to have both of those in the scene where he met Dr. Quinzel, so Harley couldn't have been present when Robin was killed, much less an accomplice.)

Belle Reve, the prison with the highest mortality rate in the US of A. Where the worst Super-Villains are kept and where they will do anything to get out—even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today’s do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and everyone’s favorite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese.” “Trekking through a jungle teeming with militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and- destroy mission with only Colonel Rick Flag on the ground to make them behave…and Amanda Waller’s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and they’re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyone’s laying down bets, the smart money is against them—all of them.” (via Batman-News.com) 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24846-the-dc-extended-universe-to-thanagar-and-beyond/page/25/#findComment-6584566

Looking at his logo from the character video at FanDome, his arms look severed.

Trini February 26, 2021 Share February 26, 2021 Article at Shadow and Act who broke the news. Interesting - I wonder if this will essentially be a reboot, or will they try to connect it to the other DC films? I'm good either way, but it sounds like they may recast Superman, so it might as well be a reboot.

Bruinsfan February 26, 2021 Share February 26, 2021 I am not onboard with recasting, though seeing Coates' take on the narrative is an interesting prospect. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24846-the-dc-extended-universe-to-thanagar-and-beyond/page/25/#findComment-6630484
Trini February 26, 2021 Share February 26, 2021 Hollywood Reporter has this "according to sources" tidbit: Quote According to sources, the project is being set up as a Black Superman story. This is something that the studio has been trying to wrap its head around for months, if not a year or two. Michael B. Jordan tried to develop a Black Superman project when he first arrived at the studio with his deal in 2019, but that did not go very far at the time, according to sources. It is possible that the studio could return to him to star down the line. Yes, there's a Black Superman in the comics, but I'm skeptical that WB/DC is ready racebend it's top tier hero for the big screen.

ruby24 February 27, 2021 Share February 27, 2021 (edited) Sounds to me like it may not be Clark Kent but one of the other alternate Earth black Supermen that they have. Coates has made comments in the past about how he's never read DC and never had any interest in Superman as a character, so I'm skeptical. It sure would be nice if WB would seek out someone who actually LIKES this character to make a movie about him.
