Release Date: July 11, 2025

James Gunn's directorial debut for the DCU, Superman: Legacy, introduces a younger Superman navigating a world already populated with superheroes. David Corenswet plays Kal-El, alongside Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. The supporting cast includes Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Isabel Merced as Hawkgirl, and Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho – hinting at a smaller Justice League-esque team. Milly Alcock is rumored to appear as Supergirl.

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow

This adaptation, based on Tom King's comic, offers a darker take on Supergirl's origin story. Milly Alcock stars as Kara Zor-El, a survivor who witnessed Krypton's destruction. Matthias Schoenaerts plays Krem, a significant antagonist from the source material, promising a more mature and complex narrative. Alcock's portrayal may debut in Superman: Legacy.

Release Date: September 11, 2026

Following the success of The Penguin, DC Studios is developing a Clayface film, directed by Mike Flanagan (Doctor Sleep). The script is complete, and production is slated to begin early next year. This version will explore the character's long and complex history, building upon previous interpretations in animation and live-action.

The Batman Part II

Release Date: October 1, 2027

Matt Reeves is currently revising the script for The Batman Part II. Production, originally anticipated for early 2025, is now expected to commence mid-to-late 2025, allowing ample time for post-production. The release date has been pushed back to October 1, 2027, allowing for a more deliberate creative process.

The Brave and the Bold

This film will feature a different Batman than Reeves' iteration, focusing on Batman and his son, Damian Wayne (Robin). Director Andy Muschietti aims to avoid a clash with Reeves' Batman Part II, resulting in a later release date. The story will draw inspiration from Grant Morrison's comics, exploring their complex relationship.

Swamp Thing

James Mangold (Logan) is directing the Swamp Thing adaptation. He intends to create a more self-contained, Gothic horror-focused narrative, prioritizing atmosphere and character study over extensive universe connections.

The Authority

While a release date is yet to be announced, María Gabriela de Faría will portray The Engineer in Superman: Legacy, offering a first look at this team. The Authority, inspired by Warren Ellis's comics, will explore a group of morally complex heroes who employ unconventional methods.

Sgt. Rock
