A couple of years ago, director Guillermo del Toro confirmed his involvement with a film adaptation of DC’s Justice League Dark, which is tentatively titled Dark Universe. Last year, he revealed that he was writing the story outline for the movie, with another screenwriter (who is still unnamed) turning it into a full script. Since then, we haven’t heard much on the film besides del Toro saying that, while the movie will initially be standalone, it may connect with other DC properties in the future. And now, we have a promising update on the supernatural ensemble film. Speaking with Forbes while promoting The Strain, del Toro confirmed that the Dark…

While DC Entertainment’s first two new television shows of the year, Gotham and The Flash, were both picked up for a full 20-something episode season, Constantine‘s debut season will not contain that many episodes. According to Deadline, despite improvement in ratings over the past couple weeks, NBC has halted production on the DC/Vertigo adaptation, with its first (and only?) season ending at episode thirteen. The network initially ordered a thirteen episode season and had the option to order more. The series will remain in its controversial 10 PM slot for the remainder of its run. However, Constantine has not been outright canceled. Deadline states that the series is still in contention…

While The Dark Knight Trilogy was a huge financial and critical success, Christian Bale and Christopher Nolan’s take on Batman ended on a rather definite note. As a result, the role of the Caped Crusader will be taken over by Ben Affleck, who will play the character in 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Affleck is also slated to reprise the role in 2017’s Justice League Part One and likely 2019’s Part Two, and he is expected to star in his own movie too. But what does Bale think about the acclaimed actor-director playing Batman? Speaking with Empire Magazine (via Comic Book Movie), Bale discussed his role as Moses in the…

                                                      MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD ‘Danse Vaudou’ is a very entertaining episode that marks the return of Papa Midnite and the introduction of Jim Corrigan, who many fans will know as the godlike character known as the Spectre. While it’s a simple hero vs ghost story, it does flesh out the relationships of two of the series central characters.

This year, Warner Bros. finally unveiled its plan to explore the DC Universe on film over the next few years. In addition to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad and two Justice League films, there will be solo movies starring Wonder Woman, The Flash, Aquaman, Green Lantern, Shazam and Cyborg. New standalone films starring Batman and Superman are also in the works, with both expected to be released in between 2016 and 2020.

From street level characters to epic cosmic adventures, there…

Suicide Squad is currently well into the casting phase, and one of the most exciting rumors so far suggests that recent Academy Award winner Jared Leto is circling the role of The Joker. This was a bit surprising, as Joker is usually not depicted as having connections to the Squad. However, with the movie expected to feature Harley Quinn – likely played by Margot Robbie – including the Clown Prince of Crime in some capacity makes sense. But what does Leto have to say about potentially playing the character? Speaking with MTV, Leto was asked directly if he is playing The Joker. Unsurprisingly, he completely avoids the questions. “There’s a…
