David Goyer Says Unproduced GREEN ARROW: ESCAPE FROM SUPERMAX Movie Was “Completely Ahead of Its Time”

Goyer and Justin Marks, saw the Emerald Archer being wrongfully imprisoned for murder in Super Max, a supervillain prison. The movie would have seen Queen in his attempts to escape, and cameos for Joker, Lex Luthor and Riddler were planned. Unfortunately, this project was later shelved, and it is unknown if Green Arrow has any role in the forthcoming DC Extended Universe.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Vaughan is teaming up with FX to create a Y: The Last Man television series. Color Force’s Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson are also involved in the show, which is just “purely” in development right now. A writer is currently being…

Yes, Mark Hamill’s Trickster Will Return for THE FLASH Season Two
In addition to playing Luke Skywalker and voicing The Joker, Mark Hamill’s other recurring role is that of Flash villain Trickster.

Will BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE Animated Movie Be Rated R?
DC has been producing original animated movies since 2007, and so far, all of them have been PG-13. Even during extremely violent moments in films such as Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Assault on Arkham, none of these movies have been slapped with an R-rating. That might change with one of DC’s 2016 offerings, the highly anticipated adaptation of Batman: The Killing Joke. Last night, the first-look panel for Batman: Bad Blood took place at New York Comic-Con, and among those in attendance was producer James Tucker (via SuperHeroHype).
