Gal Gadot's 'Wonder Woman' Release Moved For 2 New DC Films! Is 'Batman' Solo Movie Coming?
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice might not be doing so well in its second week on the box office, but that hasn't stopped Warner Bros. from seeing a lot of potential in the DC trinity. The studio has just moved up Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman to an earlier release date and added two new DC Extended Universe flicks to its current lineup! But the question is: Is Ben Affleck's Batman solo movie one of these new films?
The Hollywood Reporter broke the news that Wonder Woman will now premiere on June 2, 2017 instead of the original June 23, 2017 date. In addition to moving the Patty Jenkins movie to an earlier release by two weeks, Warner Bros. had included two yet-untitled DCEU flicks scheduled for Oct. 5, 2018 and Nov. 1, 2019.
So what are these two mysterious DC films? There is a huge possibility that the first one is none other than the rumored Batman solo movie, which already has a script written by Affleck. It is possible that the Batman script has already been pitched to Warner Bros. and hopefully they liked what they read.
But what of the second DCEU film? Batman v Superman director Zack Snyder and current Kal-El Henry Cavill have recently spoken about an interest in making another film about the Man of Steel, although both have admitted that there is no script yet nor an available slot in the Warner Bros. schedule. So if a screenplay gets prepared and a new date is opened, is there a possibility for Man of Steel 2?
In addition to the two new DC movies, Warner Bros. already has a busy lineup which includes Suicide Squad (Aug. 5, 2016) and Justice League - Part One (Nov. 17, 2017). Ezra Miller's The Flash (March 16, 2018) and Jason Momoa's Aquaman (July 27, 2018) are already in place as well. The next two years will find the release of Shazam! (April 5, 2019), Justice League - Part Two (June 14, 2019), Ray Fisher's Cyborg (April 3, 2020) and Green Lantern Corps (June 19, 2020).
What do you think would be the two new DC flicks? Is there a possible Suicide Squad sequel? Let us know in the comments.
