The Academy Award-winning Suicide Squad was a big box office hit last year, and Warner Bros. is moving forward with expanding the franchise. David Ayer is returning to direct the Harley Quinn-centric Gotham City Sirens, while the studio is considering a spinoff starring Will Smith’s Deadshot. But a direct sequel to the first film is still on the way. Last we heard, the studio is considering several directors for Suicide Squad 2, including Oscar winner Mel Gibson, who even confirmed the early talks in a couple interviews. But while we wait for a filmmaker to be brought on board, the sequel has found a screenwriter. According to The Hollywood Reporter, The…

While Superman has been playing a crucial role in the DC Extended Universe’s team-up films, fans have been waiting for a standalone sequel to 2013’s Man of Steel. A second solo Superman movie was mentioned as part of Warner Bros.’ 2016-2020 plans, and last year, it was reaffirmed that the sequel is a top priority for the studio. Now, it looks like we know who WB wants to direct it. According to Collider, Warner Bros.’ top choice to direct Man of Steel 2 is none other than Matthew Vaughn. While this is obviously far from a done deal, preliminary discussions have already taken place. And if for whatever reason Vaughn…

In the years since playing Batman in the 1960s television show, Adam West has been involved in a slew of DC-related projects. He voiced characters in a couple of animated Batman shows, while last year, he returned to the iconic role in Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders. Now, he’s returning to the live action TV realm. According to Entertainment Weekly, West will guest star in an episode of NBC’s Powerless. This role follows the actor’s voiceover contribution in the show’s pilot. West will play Dean West, who is Chairman of Wayne Industries. He visits Charm City to inform Van and Emily of an attack in Gotham. Powerless has included…

Recently, a group of journalists and bloggers visited Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins in the film’s editing bay. Collider was among the sites present for the interview. During the discussion, Jenkins goes into detail about her experience with making the movie, telling Diana Prince’s origin story, flashbacks to World War I vs. the present day, and whether there was any mandate regarding the film’s tone. Wonder Woman tells Diana’s origin story to the general public for the first time. Those who do know may consider it more “complicated” than the origins for other heroes. However, Jenkins doesn’t think so, and that any confusion should be cleared up when the movie…

Last year, a group of movie websites visited the set of DC Films’ Wonder Woman. Today, they get to publish what they saw and learned about the highly anticipated movie. Collider posted a lengthy list of highlights from the set visit, and we’ll share some of them here. These include new details on the film’s plot, confirmation of many characters, and more. As previously stated, Wonder Woman will have bookend scenes set in the present day (aka after the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice). But otherwise, the film takes place in World War I for Diana’s origin story. As a child, Diana learns about the creation of…

Gotham has become known for incorporating as many pre-Batman versions of iconic Batman villains as possible. Over the course of three years, the Fox series has included countless characters who will one day take on the Dark Knight. So, it was only a matter of time before the Demon’s Head himself showed up. It has been announced that Game of Thrones alum Alexander Siddig has been cast as Ra’s al Ghul on Gotham. This is a recurring role, and the character will first appear later this season. This version of Ra’s is connected to the Court of Owls, with Bruce Wayne discovering him as “…the enigmatic and powerful man pulling the…

The biggest mystery on Arrow this season is the identity of the big bad, Prometheus. We’ve known that Prometheus is connected to someone killed by Oliver Queen when he was the Hood back in season one. The show later suggested that he is the son of Justin Claybourne, who was taken out by the Hood four years ago, while his mother refused to provide be of assistance. Fan theories have suggested Billy Malone (RIP), a resurrected Tommy Merlyn, and many other characters for the man behind the mask. But in this week’s episode, where a lot of things were already going down, Prometheus finally unmasked himself in a truly stunning plot…

Suicide Squad became the first installment of the DC Extended Universe to be nominated for an Academy Award. The movie was nominated in the Best Makeup and Hairstyling category alongside Star Trek Beyond and A Man Called Ove. And, perhaps in one of the biggest surprise of the ceremony, Task Force X won. At the Oscars last night, Alessandro Bertolazzi, Giorgio Gregorini and Christopher Nelson took home the award for Best Makeup and Hairstyling for their work on Suicide Squad. It was the only comic book movie to win an Oscar this year. This also marks the first time that a DC Comics adaptation won an award since 2009, when The Dark…

While Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice made a lot of money at the box office last year, the majority of critics didn’t like it and the general audience was so-so. It’s arguably the most polarizing comic book movie to date. In fact, the “cool thing to do” has become talking trash about the film and greatly exaggerating its flaws. It’s gotten to the point where it picked up several nominations at this year’s Razzie Awards, and now, the results are in. Batman v Superman picked up a total of four Razzie awards, tying with Hillary’s America as the biggest “winner” of the event. BvS won in the “Worst Remake, Spin-Off…
