And while it has been a long way since incoming DC Studios co-chiefs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2022\/10\/25\/james-gunn-peter-safran-dc-films\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gunn and Peter Safran first unveiled<\/a> the direction they planned to take in building their new cinematic universe based on the superheroes of DC Comics, this is still just the first big step taken into this new world of &#8220;Gods and Monsters.&#8221; Needless to say, there are a number of projects that have been announced or reported on that are in various stages of development, so\u00a0let&#8217;s take a look at the state of that production slate and see where things stand at this moment for the DC Universe.<\/p>\n<h2>The Plan<\/h2>\n<p>We don&#8217;t know exactly what Gunn and Safran have in mind in the way of long term overarching story plans for the DCU. However, they must have at least a general point towards which they are building, given that the titles they revealed in 2023 were under the umbrella &#8220;Chapter One, &#8216;Gods and Monsters&#8217;.&#8221; This idea was expounded upon a small bit in one of <strong>Superman<\/strong>&#8216;s opening title cards in which the audience was informed that the first metahumans appeared on Earth three hundred years ago, ushering in a new age of &#8220;Gods and Monsters.&#8221; Considering that DC Studios is currently developing both a <strong>Sgt Rock<\/strong> film, which would be set in World War Two, and a television series about Wonder Woman&#8217;s Amazonian heritage, which could be set at a number of points in history, it looks as if Gunn and Safran are looking to expand on specifics within that 300 hundred year time period.<\/p>\n<p>But for now, the focus of the DCU is on introducing audiences to the wide variety of characters in the DC Comics stable that they hope to bring to the big screen. As Gunn noted at the time &#8211;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>One of our strategies is that we take our diamond characters \u2014 Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman\u2013 and we use that to help prop up other characters that people don&#8217;t know. Like taking teams like The Authority, which is I know is just as spectacular idea for a film that is completely different take on superheroes. Because it\u2019s really connected to Superman. It\u2019s about to use those well-known properties to help lead into lesser known properties.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As to the mutual canonicity of animated and live action fare, Gunn announced early on that voice actors for animated projects would be cast with an eye towards their suitability for playing their characters in live action as well. Thus, you have Frank Grillo voicing Rick Flag Sr in the animated <em>Creature Commandos<\/em> as well as appearing as the character in <strong>Superman<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Gunn has also stated that the various film and TV projects will go into production based more on the readiness of their scripts rather than needing to be finished in time to meet a specific release date.<\/p>\n<h2>What Has Come Before<\/h2>\n<p>This new DC Universe is, for the most part, a hard reboot of the franchise, starting fresh with an all new creative direction and creatives in front of and behind the camera. However, like similar reboots that have been done in the comics, the break between the past and the future is not always one hundred percent clean. In a variety of interviews, Gunn has stated that only a small bit of what we have seen before in DC Comics-related film and television projects will carry over into the cinematic universe. Specifically, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2023\/09\/28\/james-gunn-confirms-first-three-actor-holdovers-for-upcoming-revitalized-dc-films\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">he noted that three actors<\/a> &#8211; Xolo Maridue\u00f1a as Blue Beetle, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, and John Cena as Peacemaker &#8211; would continue in their roles in projects for the new DCU. This led to some initial confusion, which Gunn stated he understood but that all would be revealed in time.<\/p>\n<p>More recently, Gunn has honed some of the details about what has carried over to the new canon of the franchise. Basically, the events of his film <strong>The Suicide Squad<\/strong> happened in broad strokes with specific details being confirmed as having happened if they are referenced in any new project. So specific things like &#8220;Project: Starfish&#8221; and the death of Rick Flag Jr from <strong>The Suicide Squad<\/strong> are brought into the new canon as they are mentioned in <em>Creature Commandos<\/em>. The carryover of Xolo Maridue\u00f1a in the role of Blue Beetle and Season one of <em>Peacemaker<\/em> falls under this status as wells as noted below. It is unclear as to what, if any, of the details from the 2023 live action <strong>Blue Beetle<\/strong> film will carry over to the status quo. Gunn, however, has been very clear that the only thing in <em>Peacemaker<\/em> season one that is explicitly non-canon is the season finale&#8217;s tag scene featuring the old version of the Justice League.<\/p>\n<h2>Creature Commandos<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_53317\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53317\" style=\"width: 678px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/creature-commandos.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-53317\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/creature-commandos.jpg\" alt=\"Creature Commandos DCU\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/creature-commandos.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/creature-commandos-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-53317\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image via MAX.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Writer: James Gunn<br \/>\nCast: Indira Varma (The Bride), Sean Gunn (G.I.

This was also a series that Gunn was writing at the time of his hire to run DC Studios, so it was easy for him to fold it into his ongoing reboot plans. The first full DCU project released, it does give its audience some tantalizing glimpses of characters who they will be seeing more of in the future. The series was a hit for streamer MAX and a second season was ordered last December.<\/p>\n<h2>Peacemaker Season 2<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_53427\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53427\" style=\"width: 678px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Peacemaker.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-53427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Peacemaker.jpg\" alt=\"Peacemaker DCU\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Peacemaker.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Peacemaker-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-53427\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image via MAX<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Writer: James Gunn<br \/>\nDirector: James Gunn<br \/>\nCast: John Cena (Christopher Smith \/ Peacemaker), Viola Davis (Amanda Waller), Danielle Brooks (Leota Adebayo), Freddie Stroma (Adrian Chase \/ Vigilante), Jennifer Holland (Emilia Harcourt), Steve Agee (John Economos)<br \/>\nStatus: Season 2 completed<br \/>\nRelease Date: Season One currently available, Season 2 &#8211; August 21, 2025<\/p>\n<p>Spinning out of Gunn&#8217;s <strong>The Suicide Squad<\/strong>, Peacemaker centers on the titular anti-hero as played by John Cena.

Initially, a series focusing on Viola Davis&#8217;s ARGUS chief Amanda Waller was to follow <em>Peacemaker<\/em>&#8216;s first season, but the 2023 twin Writers Guild and Screen Actors Guild strikes caused that project to be delayed, and presumably <em>Waller<\/em> will follow after <em>Peacemaker<\/em> Season 2.

In that story, Kara Zoe-El, aka Supergirl, uses the occasion of her 21st birthday to head out and explore the galaxy a bit. She encounters a young alien woman named Ruthye and becomes involved with her quest for revenge. The screenplay appears to be expanding on that plot somewhat, as the original miniseries did not feature Momoa\u2019s intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo, a fan favorite character.<\/p>\n<h3>Lanterns<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_51122\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-51122\" style=\"width: 678px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lanterns.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-51122\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lanterns.jpg\" alt=\"Lanterns DCU\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lanterns.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lanterns-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-51122\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image via DC Comics<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Writers: Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof and Tom King<br \/>\nCast: Kyle Chandler (Hal Jordan\/Green Lantern), Aaron Pierre (John Stewart\/Green Lantern), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner\/Green Lantern), Ulrich Thomsen (Thaal Sinestro), Kelly Macdonald (Kerry), Garret Dillahunt (William Macon), Poorna Jagannathan (Zoe)<br \/>\nStatus: In Production<br \/>\nRelease Date: Summer 2026<\/p>\n<p>This series will center on Hal Jordan and John Stewart, two human members of the intergalactic police force known as Green Lanterns, as they investigate an Earth-bound crime.

Warners has since tapped James Watkins to direct. There have been a number of Clayfaces across the history of the comics, and this version will be using the Basil Karlo iteration of the character &#8211; an aging actor who uses a cosmetic product that promises to restore his youthful looks but instead has some horrific unintended consequences &#8211; for its story.
