Machinima announced earlier that the Justice League: Gods and Monsters Chronicles animated series will return next year for a second season, which will consist of ten episodes and introduce more DC characters into this alternate reality. And now, the programming service has unveiled its full upcoming slate, and it contains two more projects from DC Entertainment. First, we have the contest series DC’s Hero Project, which will be overseen by Geoff Johns and other judges. In this contest, eight contestants must create a live action short film based on DC Comics’ Starman. The other series is #4Hero, which is based on the Dial H for Hero comic books. This project focuses on…

DC’s next animated film, Justice League: Gods and Monsters, is set to hit home video on July 28th. The movie will explore an alternative world in the DC Universe, with radically different versions of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and more. The film is the latest DC project from Bruce Timm. Shortly before Gods and Monsters is released, fans will get to see this world in action on Machinima in the series Justice League: Gods and Monsters Chronicles. Machinima held its Heroes Rise event in New York City today, and there, Timm debuted a first look at Gods and Monsters Chronicles. The series will premiere in June. ComicBook.com was present at the…

Warner Bros. just released the first cast image from Suicide Squad, featuring everyone in the Task Force X. Of course, this included Deadshot, played by Will Smith. Deadshot was noticeably not wearing his iconic mask or any form of headgear, leading some to wonder if he would remain without it in the movie. Turns out he will wear a mask. Smith has posted this promo image on Facebook, giving us our first look at Deadshot, complete with helmet/mask and eyepiece. Needless to say, this Deadshot looks to be ripped right out of the comics. Check out the image below, and stay tuned for more as we have it. Suicide Squad is…

After teasing an announcement last night, Suicide Squad writer and director David Ayer has shared a new promo image featuring much of the film’s ensemble cast. Specifically, it reveals our first look at Task Force X in action, including at least one character that was previously not known to be in the movie. From left to right, we have Adam Beach as Slipknot (?), Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, Karen Fukuhara as Katana (she was previously rumored to be Plastique), Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flagg, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Will Smith as Deadshot, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc, and Jay Hernandez as El Diablo.

With Upfronts scheduled for later this month, television networks are expected to finalize their 2015-2016 schedules. One series that has been pegged as a likely series order is CBS’ Supergirl, a new adaptation of one of DC Comics’ most iconic superheroines. In The Hollywood Reporter‘s “Top 10 Pilots Likely to Score Series Pickups” list, Supergirl is again mentioned, along with The CW’s untitled Arrow/Flash spin-off. However, the article suggests that we could be seeing Kara Zor-El on the small screen even sooner than this fall. According to THR’s sources, CBS is apparently considering a summer run for Supergirl. This will make it stand out from other comic book shows, as…

Production on Suicide Squad is well underway in Toronto. Despite this, Warner Bros.’ DC Comics adaptation is still adding to its impressive ensemble cast. According to Variety, The Twilight Saga actor Alex Meraz has signed on to appear in the supervillain film. His role in the movie is, unsurprisingly, not known. It is also unspecified how big of a role he has. Fans are already speculating that it could be Dick Grayson/Nightwing or Jason Todd/Red Hood, among others. But don’t be surprised if it is neither of those characters. Regardless, Meraz confirmed the casting on his Twitter, affirming that he will be filming in Toronto “…for the summer!” He also…

After years of pleading from fans, Warner Bros. is finally crafting its own cinematic universe based on DC Comics. Beginning with Man of Steel in 2013, this universe will be further expanded with next year’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad. These will be followed by Wonder Woman, The Flash, Aquaman, Shazam, Cyborg, Green Lantern and a two-part Justice League epic. New solo films based on Batman and Superman are also in development. All of these films are expected to be released by 2020. While this is surely an ambitious plan, it hasn’t been without its bumps on the road. The Hollywood Reporter has published an article detailing the studio’s…

Production on Suicide Squad is now underway in Toronto, Ontario. The DC Comics adaptation will feature as the big screen debuts of characters such as Deadshot and Harley Quinn, while new iterations of Amanda Waller and The Joker are also featured. Suicide Squad is expected to be filled with many DC Universe villains, opening up that side of Warner Bros.’ growing cinematic world, while Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will debut many of its heroes. Speaking of that movie, rumor has it that at least one character from Batman v Superman will return for this film. That would not be surprising, as both DC movies are scheduled to release next year.…

It was announced last year that TNT was developing the pilot Titans, which is based on DC Comics’ Teen Titans. Since then, little else has been revealed. Geoff Johns said that the pilot would be filmed this year, while the lineup reportedly consists of Dick Grayson, Starfire, Raven, Hawk and Dove and Barbara Gordon. Otherwise, we haven’t heard anything…until now. According to Season Zero, the Titans pilot/potential series has a new name: Blackbirds. This is arguably a step down from the original title. But could this just be a working title, rather than the name that the final product will go with? Possibly. Season Zero also says that production is…

Recently, it was revealed that actor-rapper Common has joined the cast of Suicide Squad, which is currently undergoing production. At the time, it was unclear which role he would play. Was he finally being given the chance to play Green Lantern John Stewart after Justice League: Mortal was canned? Or is he playing another character? Rumor has it that it is the latter, and Common may be playing a fan-favorite villain from the comics. According to JoBlo, Common might be playing none other than Black Manta, a frequent enemy of Aquaman. Manta has had connections to the Squad, as he turned down joining the team more than once in comic…
