some neato Reddit leaks for DCEU surfaced and were taken down

source: screengeek.net/2016/08/31/rumor-large-list-of-warner-bros-future-plans-for-dceu-leaks/

>Cyborg is out, folks. Expect a full Titans flick with Deathstroke as the main antagonist. Nightwing is in it, though, if that’s any consolation. Cyborg will be in the Flash movie. Barry and Vic knew each other in school.

>Deathstroke was offered to a bunch of actors but it ultimately went to Joe Manganiello.

>Sequel to Man of Steel will be released in 2020 (the name Superman will not be in the title). Villain is Braniac. They’re trying to court several directors including J.J. Abrams and Duncan Jones. Other characters being considered include Supergirl and Superboy. Lex Luthor will be a key character in Braniac’s new origin. I believe the origin they have planned at the moment is Lex uses Kryptonian and alien tech to enhance LexOS and it becomes Braniac. From what I’ve seen though, they DEFINITELY want Braniac in a physical comic book-y form, not as some AI controlling drones or machines or something.

>Edgar Wright is also being courted for a DCEU project.

>They’re trying not to make Justice League feel overcrowded but it’s very clear that there is a lot they’re working with already. Looking to be a long movie. They know they can’t cut out a ton of stuff and repeat past mistakes.

>Justice League’s villain is Steppenwolf as you all know. The League fights Parademons for a good chunk of the film. Lex is let out of prison and gets the public to love him. He tries to manipulate the public into hating heroes like Batman and Superman but it doesn’t work. Lex helps Steppenwolf come to Earth in exchange for technology and knowledge. Lex is very manipulative and much calmer than he was in BvS. He’s also much scarier in my opinion. There’s a funny scene after the League is assembled where Joker and Harley are committing a crime and they expect Batman to show up…when the whole League arrives. It’s really funny and Joker and Harley just stand there, not knowing what to do now. Kind of like a “Well…shit” moment. Later, the League get their asses kicked by Steppenwolf but then Superman returns and weakens him. The full Justice League then works together to defeat Steppenwolf in an awesome climactic fight reminiscent of the big fight scene in The Avengers. Superman has a beard, long hair, tattered/scorched-looking black suit, and is thin at first (not as thin as Flashpoint Superman but still thin). During the fight with Steppenwolf, you see his full strength return with each swing and with each second he’s in the sunlight. Green Lantern shows up at the very very end of the film (may even be moved to mid/post-credit scene). There’s a full Darkseid tease at the end buuuuut…


>Justice League 2 may or may not use Darkseid as the villain. The biggest concern is comparisons to Thanos. They may hold off and use him further down the line once the dust has settled following Infinity War. Other villains being considered are the Injustice League, the Crime Syndicate and The Society. They really want multiple villains for the sequel for some reason. Tower of Babel is also being discussed as a possible plot.

>Justice League 2 will be pushed back to the end of 2019 to make room for Justice League Dark (which will have a different title to not confuse moviegoers).

>Aquaman will release August 2018. The villain is Black Manta, though as far as I know he has not been cast yet. The concept sketches do show the full suit which made me very excited. They want Black Manta to be a Darth Vader-esque character, in that his voice and presence is intimidating and terrifying even when he’s not fighting. Aqualad is in it and serves his father for a good chunk of the film. He eventually switches sides and helps Aquaman. There’s a cool fight scene planned where Aquaman and Aqualad fight Black Manta’s army before Aquaman goes off to fight Black Manta at the end.

>Flash’s release date is March 2018. Villains are the Rogues, led by a really…creepy Captain Cold. The film is going to be really fun but Captain Cold is…strange. Creepy is really the best way I can describe it. I’m not entirely sold on the concept so hopefully it’ll work better on the big screen. He wears a sleek mechanical suit that has the same color scheme and pattern as his comic book incarnation. They noticed how fan’s loved the Speedforce scenes in the show and hope to put their own spin on something similar.

>>They’re trying not to make Justice League feel overcrowded but it’s very clear that there is a lot they’re working with already. Looking to be a long movie. They know they can’t cut out a ton of stuff and repeat past mistakes.
Then they should have fucking fired Snyder.

>The Batman film (right now called The Batman though they’re considering other titles) will release October 5 2018. Current plot has Black Mask as the main villain breaking other villains out of Arkham to kill Batman. Joker and Harley have a subplot involving a bomb to blow up all the inmates once Batman recaptures them all that results in Harley leaving the Joker because of the abuse and Batman trying to rehabilitate her. Deathstroke is sent in by Waller to help contain the situation so she can use them for her own means but Batman fights Deathstroke and promises Waller that he’s coming for her next. Deadshot is also in it but leaves the Asylum to be with his daughter instead of getting his revenge on Batman. There’s a really cool scene where Black Mask lines all the villains up and asks who will join him to get revenge (this scene will focus a lot on Deadshot’s reactions, making it clear he wants only freedom). Many of the villains get away in the end, with Batman promising to hunt them all down. The film will end with Batman overlooking Gotham and seeing one of the B-List villains (has yet to be decided) committing a crime.

Luke Evans was approached to play Sinestro in Green Lantern Corp. Not sure if he agreed. The film will be lighthearted and fun. They’re modeling the tone after old cheesy scifi serials. As of right now, the villain will be Sinestro with a tease of Atrocitus towards the end (subject to change however). They want to explore the various Lantern Corps with this film and the sequels.

>Cyborg is out, folks. Expect a full Titans flick with Deathstroke as the main antagonist.
why this wasn't the plan from the beginning will always baffle me. It's like they didn't want to make money.

>They want to do something fresh and new to revamp Black Adam in Shazam. From what I’ve heard, Dwayne Johnson has been in constant communication about what they could do to make this film better. Billy is also a huge Justice League fan and he meets them at the end of the film as Shazam.

>Misha Collins, Channing Tatum, Milo Ventimiglia, Steven Yeun, and Jake Gyllenhaal have been approached for various roles.

>Rob Lowe was approached to play one of the villains in the Flash film. They apparently really want him to play a villain.

>Emily Blunt, Rosamund Pike, Alexandria Daddario, and Jessica Chastain have also been approached.

The mere mention of GL tells me this is BS
They would have revealed GL way before Deathstroke and for that matter GL will be on the chopping block before Cyborg gets canned.

>Expect full trailers for both Wonder Woman and Justice League emphasizing the “fun” of these movies. The Wonder Woman trailer shows the villain a little. Also expect a bunch of announcements regarding casting, release dates being moved, a few new films being added to the slate, plans for DCEU shows and DCEU animated movies (no shows or movies will be announced, just that they will make stuff that tie in), and more.

GL appearing in the end of JL has been a rumored thing for some time

>Going off that last bit, they’re planning on bringing the DCEU shows to HBO exclusively. Ideas being tossed around include Birds of Prey, Nightwing, The Question (heavily being considered as being the first, last I heard), The Phantom Stranger, Zatanna, and Doctor Fate.

He hasn't even been cast and the movie is shooting now
No need to make him a surprise they already revealed the poster of the JL

>The animated films will show what some of the characters are up to during the events of the other films.

7th member, remember

we still dont know who it is

most likely GL

>Suicide Squad 2 will happen though after 2020, likely to be 2021. Will have a slightly altered roster. It also will not be directed by David Ayer.

>The DCEU has been mapped out to about 2025.

>The Booster Gold/Blue Beetle movie is up in the air right now. They’re leaning on the edge of approving it after the success of Deadpool but may use it as an HBO show.

>Rob Lowe as Captain Cold
>Nick Offerman as Captain Boomerang
>Aziz Ansari as Weather Wizard
>Adam Scott as Mirror Master
>Jim O'Hare as Gorilla Grodd
I'd watch it.

suicide squad 2 after 2020 seems like a bit late especially since its their 2nd biggest film now

> It also will not be directed by David Ayer.

Good. There's no point in hiring talented directors if you're just going to shit all over them from the beginning.

I'd like a combo of all those similar in presentation to 52. Maybe each season is a year in the cinematic universe, starting right after BvS?

2020???? WTF???? Why the fuck so long?

>HBO Question show
I don't think I've ever wanted a rumor to be more true than this.

>reddit leaks

These have been posted here for like 2 months now. Fuck off with this fanfic shit.

>Duncan Jones on Superman

I like this.

Funny how people never mention the writers only the director

This. You newfags are fucking idiots.

wait how does that make someone a newfag?

and on that note i havent seen this info anywhere else, and the article is from today

Cause its been posted here for months so you're a fucking idiot newfag if you haven't seen these made up rumors yet

>Screen Geek is so pathetic it publishes Reddit rumors.
I don't know which is worse, this or Bleeding Cool for publishing Sup Forums rumors.

>They’re trying to court several directors including J.J. Abrams and Duncan Jones.

Dropped. Snyder or bust.

Channing Tatum as Shazam would be fucking great.

FUCKING REDDITOR

>how does that make someone a newfag?
They don't watch the catalog like a hawk 24 hours a day 7 days a week or spend a few weeks on a different board so them missing one single thread means that they're a newfag 12 year old from reddit.

Prove that they are fake then, faggots or else shut the fuck up

Anyone with a brain can witch BvS and know that Snyder was the main creative force behind it. The screenwriters were secondary to the direction and imagery.

The only times it felt like Terrio woke up and wrote something was during the Senate story-line. It's clearly he was way more interested in writing a gritty Washington DC political thriller then anything to do with superheroes.

God, I'll take anyone other then fucking Snyder.

She should play Batwoman, but I doubt they're going to add anymore franchises to this.

Its been posted here at least 2x a week for the last 2 months. Sup Forums isn't exactly a fast board. You'd have to be pretty new to have missed this autistic Sup Forums shit.

They were made up here or on Sup Forums months ago you brain dead faggot. You go look through the archives if you care that much. OP uses the same fucking image every time.

That's not how this works, redditor shit-lord

It's literally too perfect to happen, which means it won't.

Jesus, why the fuck so long for a second Superman movie? By then the Superhero fatigue will probably kick in.

Snyder literally created the stories for all of the movies he's directed except MoS and also dictated the basic premise of all the other DCEU movies. For example, he's the one who dictated Wonder Woman is 5000 years old and her solo movie will take place in WW1 and all that. He wrote the first draft of JL's script.

So yeah, Snyder should have been fired a long fucking time ago.

>Tower Of Babel
Don't please.

WBs a mess of a company. They have no clear direction and will likely want to get the JL team up and running fast since BvS did so dismal and Disney/Marvel now have an even better lead then before thanks to this mess.

>Cyborg is out

>But he's already in the trailer

Well this is just flat out retarded. Why does anyone believe these "leaks"?

The Cyborg solo movie.

it's obviously about his Solo movie

Oh, I was under the impression that the Shazam movies would be a standalone thing apart from the rest of the DCEU. Well, it was fun while it lasted.

Worse if WB doesn't get their act together we might see the embarrassment of a Superman film that has poor sales and will be mark in time as when his relevancy drop and charterers like Vision and Ant-man were more iconic than him.

Lowe would make a good Weather Wizard honestly.

BvS was originally a Man of Steel sequel

They already did that when they announced BVS.

it was confirmed DCEU awhile ago and it's still its own thing, being part of a bigger universe doesnt equal bad in anyway, they've said countless times DC has let them do whatever they want

>Batman recaptures them all that results in Harley leaving the Joker because of the abuse and Batman trying to rehabilitate her.

Aaaaaaaaannnnnddddd this leak was fake. Bored now. Let the thread die please.

Deadshot is in belle reve not arkham

Just like they let Ayer do his thing, right?

>charterers like Vision and Ant-man were more iconic than him.
Literally never.

To our ad it wasn't a Superman movie or a good movie.

Ant-man made about as much as man of steel

>The Rock
Isn't he in jail, though?

>J.J. Abrams
We're gonna get a bunch of lens flares and a mystery story that won't be resolved until the sequel

>Translation: Blue and Gold never
That's it. DCEU is dead forever.

are you stupid

>Cyborg is out, folks
Cool.
>Expect a full Titans flick
Please no. MAYBE if they strongly sexualize starfire.
>Joe Manganiello.
Meh, too young.
>including J.J. Abrams and Duncan Jones
I'm Ok with JJ as long as he Is banned from homaging the Reeves films at all.
>Lex is very manipulative and much calmer than he was in BvS. He’s also much scarier in my opinion.
Sounds good altho I would still prefer if they just brought in this Lex's dad as the true Lex. Kelsey Grammer please.
>the Crime Syndicate
No.
>The concept sketches do show the full suit which made me very excited. They want Black Manta to be a Darth Vader-esque character, in that his voice and presence is intimidating and terrifying even when he’s not fighting.
Fuck Yes.
>Aqualad
Fuck No, focus on Mera as his partner.
Good very happy it's not reverse Flash yet.
>Black Mask
Use a actual intricate detailed skull mask design & not that leather bondage shit in the comics currently.
Please elude to the notion of the mask being haunted/supernatural/possessive.
>Luke Evans was approached to play Sinestro in Green Lantern Corp.
Lance Reddick would have been my ideal choice but this is decent.
>The film will be lighthearted and fun
Dear god no, did they learn FUCKING NOTHING from the 2011 film???
Repeat after me.
TRAINING DAY IN SPACE, TONE & ALL.
TRAINING DAY IN SPACE, TONE & ALL.
TRAINING DAY IN SPACE, TONE & ALL.
Mother Fuckers.

That's not what makes something iconic.

Go back.

It's better than Zack Snyder.

I honestly love just about everything in these "leaks". Unfortunately it's really hard to get hyped for any of it since;
>the leaks would have to turn out to be a legit
>with so much time there's a very good chance that things would be changed/canceled
>WB's track record hasn't been good enough to inspire tons of confidence

He was arrested on the 21st. I hadn't heard that they let him go the next day.

>Aziz Ansari
>As anything ever

Get this poo in the loo out of here!

>Lex creates Doomsday AND Brainiac

Can they not?

>2020 for MOS 2


Fuuuuuuuuckkkkkkk why? Cavill will be bald by then and Amy Addams will be what? 50?

Does Lex have to be involve in anything Superman related that isn't Zod?

>Jake Gyllenhaal
Black Mask or Hal maybe.
>Emily Blunt
Please no.
>Alexandria Daddario
Starfire or Natu.
>Rosamund Pike
>Jessica Chastain
Both could play Poison Ivy.
Chastain would be a good older Kate Kane, fuck Barbara.
>The Wonder Woman trailer shows the villain a little
Please please let Ares be in his classic armor. And do battle in it.
Keep Katana & I am happy.
Agreed.
TFA didn't have almost any flares and at times the flares can be gorgeous.

Hope this is fake, cause this is kind of shitty story.
Too Arkham Orginsy.

I'd prefer it if it was pretty much Under the Red Hood, with some stuff taken from Arkham Knight comic, what with the connection between Jason and Deathstroke or some shit if we're shoving him in.

>The Question (heavily being considered as being the first, last I heard), The Phantom Stranger, Zatanna, and Doctor Fate.

I'd love this to be true, but we couldn't be that lucky.

Fake and homosexual

>Milo Ventimiglia
Is it wrong to want him as Nightwing?
He could totally play an older Dick, he even looks like he's got a bit Romany in him.

post butt

>Lex is let out of prison and gets the public to love him.
There's no way. How are they going to explain him getting out of prison so quickly? Lois Lane wouldn't let this happen.

>There’s a funny scene after the League is assembled where Joker and Harley are committing a crime and they expect Batman to show up…when the whole League arrives.
Man I hope this is real.

> but then Superman returns and weakens him. The full Justice League then works together to defeat Steppenwolf
It would be a lot more memorable if Superman soloed him IMO.

>Green Lantern shows up at the very very end of the film
Hal Jordan prior to getting the ring, after getting the ring, or Abin Sur? I would prefer seeing a wounded Abin Sur.

>Justice League 2 may or may not use Darkseid as the villain.
I think they should. If GL is the one to defeat him, perhaps boosted by the corps giving him extra energy, it would more than make up for the GL movie. Especially if he does his lantern speech as he beats Darkseid.

Geeze, even in fan art his hairline is getting worse

Short

I like their writing here

>Lex creates Bizarro, calls it Doomsday
>Lex creates Metallo, calls it Brainiac

So what's next? Lex contacts an alien from Mars and calls it Kalibak? Lex hires an evil toymaker, and calls him Parasite?

There is no need to "hope". As others have pointed out these rumors were created months ago on Sup Forums and finally they hit leddit so news sources believe it.

These aren't actual leaks bud, they're just some dude's fan fiction.

Nightwing is like 1.78, Milo is 1.75 apparently, I'd take it.

>Snyder meme hate hasn't died yet
It's ok, it's easier to spot the plebs that way.

Can't Brainiac just be Kryptonian AI gone rogue.

>says the fanbase that think symbolism is an adequate replacement for character development or exploration.

You have terrible taste.

>God, I'll take anyone other then fucking Snyder.
>then
This is the average intelligence of a pleb a.k.a. Snyder hater.

I hope they've learnt their lessons, both times they edited a film in a way that the director did not want the films have underperformed, 1.4 billion is a lot of money don't get me wrong, but BvS and SS could have made 2.2 billion + if the editing in both wasn't so shit

>Current plot has Black Mask as the main villain breaking other villains out of Arkham to kill Batman.
I had this same idea except with Bane, and Batman would break Bane's back instead.

That sounds incredibly fucking stupid.

It's still fun to theorize. At least these were thought up in a better way than most of the fake leaks around here.

But no one thinks that.
Noone but the Kino faggots give a shit about the symbolism.
It's utterly irrelevant.
In Mos it's just the church scene & the cross pose in space, that does jack shit in regards to the quality it the film, good or bad.
And we got plenty of character work.

i actually could see Lowe as a pathetic riddler, kind of like he is in Young Justice.

>Cyborg in the Flash
Meh.
>everything about MoS2
If they hadn't had casted fucking Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, this would all sound very good.

>JL
More serious and calmer Lex sounds good but still, Jesse Eisenberg. And Steppenwolf. Fuck.

>changing the name of JLD
Alright with me. I never did like the name of JLD, but the concept is great.

>Black Manta
>Black Manta being Darth Vader-esque
>Kaldur'ahm
HHNNNGGG

Although this makes me wonder what they'll do for Darkseid, since he's not unlike Vader as well.

>Creepy Captain Cold
Yeah, no. Leonard is a blue collar career criminal.

>Deadshot
>in Arkham Asylum
Boy, this isn't bullshit.

>lighthearted and fun
Hmm...we'll see. If anything, I'd take a GLC movie that were more serious.

>revamping Black Adam
Eh. Gotta keep him as he is.

Kek, they're going full damage control.

>Zatanna
Seven Soldiers show when?
