After a brief career interlude, James Gunn is once again a busy man. In between stints directing this year’s “The Suicide Squad” and the upcoming “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.

With Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton both scheduled to reprise their Batman roles for the upcoming ‘Flash’ film from DC Films, people might expect to see other Batmen from various films and TV projects show up.

If you’ve seen James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad,” you know that the film is basically a reboot of the franchise but with a few returning characters, such as Harley Quinn, Rick Flagg, and Amanda Waller. But one of the biggest names from David Ayer’s “Suicide Squad” that didn’t show up is Will Smith as Deadshot.

Actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead started out her film career playing the daughter of Bruce Willis‘ John McClane in “Live Free or Die Hard, but has carved out a big career since then, including the action genre.

In the latest “Aquaman” sequel tease for fans, star Jason Momoa revealed the character’s new, upgraded suit via a slideshow and story posted to the actor’s official Instagram account on Sunday. The suit, which will be featured in the forthcoming DCEU sequel Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, is a dark-blue hue with metallic elements.

Mario Bava’s 1965 sci-fi classic, “Planet of the Vampires,” is said to be one of the biggest influences on Ridley Scott’s iconic “Alien” franchise.

The cat, err, bat’s out of the bag, now.

After watching James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad,” you really can’t imagine the team fighting any other villain than Starro. The giant, colorful, frankly ridiculous alien starfish fits perfectly with the tone set forth through the first two acts of Gunn’s superhero film.

It’s unclear whether it’s a good thing or not when the buzz surrounding a film titled “The Flash” is solely about Batman. But yet, that seems to be the case, as the new DC superhero film about the Fastest Man Alive, played by Ezra Miller, seemingly is set to feature multiple actors returning as Batman due to the multiversal story.

David Ayer who? If you’re the folks at Warner Bros. and DC Films, that’s the exact question they want audiences to ask after seeing James Gunn’s latest film, “The Suicide Squad.” Though Ayer did, technically, make a “Suicide Squad” film back in 2016 (though it might not conform to his exact vision), the studio behind that feature is hoping you have selective amnesia and embrace what is happening in Gunn’s reinvention of the misfit supervillain troupe, Task Force X.

A lot has already been made of James Gunn’s decision to make “The Suicide Squad.” We already know the opportunity came about because Disney executives fired the filmmaker from “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” and suddenly Gunn’s schedule was wide open, leading to a meeting with Warner Bros.

First, it needs to be said that a lot of time has passed since Martin Scorsese took aim at Marvel Studios and superhero films, basically calling them trash and not real “cinema.” So, perhaps in that time, Scorsese binged all of the MCU films and is anxiously awaiting “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” in September.

Robert Downey, Jr. will always be synonymous with the on-screen version of Iron Man.

A great comic book movie requires a lot of elements to fall into place. You need a great special effects team, at least one compelling hero or antihero to rally behind for two hours, and a snappy script peppered with engaging action.

Looks like Warner Bros. and HBO Max have settled on their Blue Beetle superhero.

With James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad” arriving in theaters and HBO Max this weekend, there’s going to be a lot of talk about the new villains (or anti-heroes, if you prefer) that show up in the DC superhero film. And while you should really be excited for Idris Elba’s Bloodsport and David Dastmalchian’s scene-stealing Polka-Dot Man, many fans will have a keen eye on John Cena’s Peacemaker, as that character is already lined up for his own HBO Max series.

Zack Snyder‘s “Justice League” featured “Spider-Man” actor and Oscar-winner J.K. Simmons as Commissioner Jim Gordon, and we all assumed that would be the end of his run in the DCEU as the studio attempted to pivot with Matt Reeves‘ “The Batman” adding Jeffrey Wright (“No Time To Die,” “Westworld“) as the new Jim Gordon and likely will appear in the HBO Max series.

You’ll recall, the first time a Black Superman project was mentioned by Warner Bros. and the trades, Michael B.

Well, that certainly didn’t take long. Following two-day old reports of a “Batgirl” short list with a list of potential contenders, Warner Bros.

Director Zack Snyder finally got to finish and release his version of “Justice League” earlier this year on HBO Max, after an online campaign spearheaded by fans to allow the filmmaker to complete his original vision.

One of the biggest films that are currently in development from DC Films and Warner Bros. is the feature, “Batgirl.” Originally, the film was expected to debut in theaters with Joss Whedon writing and directing.

James Gunn holds a rare distinction in the modern superhero filmmaking world. He’s the only director to receive credit for helming films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (“Guardians of the Galaxy” and its sequel) and the DCEU (the upcoming “The Suicide Squad”).

If you try to follow the continuity of the DCEU, from “Man of Steel” through the Snyder Cut and into the upcoming “The Suicide Squad,” you might have questions. But that’s okay! The DCEU isn’t the MCU and continuity doesn’t mean nearly as much to the filmmakers, as long as the story is good.

Once upon a time ago, there was an idea. Oh wait, that’s Marvel.

Typically, when you have a film that makes $1 billion at the box office and kickstarts a huge superhero franchise, a studio will desperately try to rush out a sequel. Well, for “Aquaman,” which hit theaters in 2018, Warner Bros.

Warner Bros., much like Disney, is betting big on superhero content for its streaming service. However, even though Marvel Studios and Disney are leaving the films in theaters and letting the TV series dominate the streaming platform, WB and DC Films are going a bit of a different route, with some big-name superhero films coming exclusively to HBO Max.

Believe it or not, there’s a new interview with Zack Snyder where he talks about DC superhero films! Shocking, I know. But in the new episode of Happy.

While we’re likely going to have to wait a little longer before Warner Bros. gives us their “Green Lantern Corps.” movie, however, there is a “Green Lantern” series in the works at HBO Max that will cover a bulk of the other human heroes that joined the group of cosmic cops.

When it was announced that JJ Abrams and his Bad Robot production company would have their fingers in a variety of DC superhero projects at WarnerMedia, people just assumed it would end up with the filmmaker taking the reins of one of the films or TV series himself and assume the directorial role. However, even though we’ve seen a number of the projects be announced, including a new “Superman” film written by Ta-Nehisi Coates, Abrams has been listed as a producer only, not a director.

Anyone who thinks Warner Bros. is itching to greenlight more Snyderverse films beyond “Zack Snyder’s Justice League” might want to guess again.

Over the weekend, Zack Snyder and various other “Justice League” folks got together for this year’s Justice Con. And while there was plenty to talk about regarding the superhero team-up film, particularly with the news that Ray Fisher wouldn’t mind coming back to the DCEU in the future, some of the more interesting conversations revolved around “Batman v.

Odds are, if you’re reading this, you’re probably not a Hollywood actor that had your first real big break as a star in a huge studio’s superhero team-up film. But if you are, then I’d like to say hi to Ray Fisher.

If you believe the current release dates, then we should be expecting a new “Aquaman” film at the end of 2022. But since that date was announced a while back, we have yet to hear much about the forthcoming sequel.

It’s 2021 and if I were to ask superhero film fans to name two actresses they’d like to see star as sibling villains in the new “Shazam!” sequel, it’s highly unlikely they would name Helen Mirren and Lucy Liu. Well, apparently director David F.

Though for all intents and purposes, when you think of “Man of Steel,” “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice,” and “Justice League,” the creator that springs to mind first and foremost is Zack Snyder.

Emerald Fennell is living large in 2021. After becoming a critical darling out of the festival circuit with “Promising Young Woman,” the film was eventually released and has picked up a ton of trophies during awards season, all culminating in multiple Oscar nominations.
