Based onCharacters from DC Comics

The DC Universe (DCU) is an American media franchise and shared universe based on characters from DC Comics publications. It was created by James Gunn and Peter Safran, co-chairmen and co-CEOs of DC Studios. The DCU is a soft reboot of a previous franchise, the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), retaining select cast members and narrative elements but disregarding others. In contrast with the previous state of DC Comics adaptations, the DCU features a united continuity and story across live-action films and television, animation, and video games. Concurrent DC adaptations that do not fit this continuity are labeled "DC Elseworlds".

After Discovery, Inc. and WarnerMedia merged to become Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD), CEO David Zaslav revealed a plan to revitalize the DC brand following the poor reception of some DCEU films. Gunn and Safran were hired to lead the newly formed DC Studios in November 2022 after working on several DCEU projects, including the film The Suicide Squad (2021) and its spin-off series Peacemaker (2022–present). The pair spent several months with a group of writers developing the overarching story for a new DC continuity, which features a combination of popular and obscure DC characters. Some DCEU projects in development were abandoned in favor of new takes, while others—including Peacemaker—continued within the new franchise. Gunn and Safran wanted to focus on storytelling needs rather than forcing creators to produce their projects for specific release dates.

The story of the DCU is divided into chapters, starting with "Gods and Monsters" which began in 2024 with the animated series Creature Commandos. Gunn and Safran consider the chapter's first film, Superman (2025), to be the true beginning of the DCU.

Background

Further information: Development of the DC Extended Universe

DC Extended Universe

Warner Bros. Pictures was deemed to be "lagg[ing] behind" rival company Marvel Studios and their shared universe of superheroes, the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), by late 2012. Warner Bros. began planning for Man of Steel (2013), based on the DC Comics character Superman, to start their own shared universe,[1] which became known as the "DC Extended Universe" (DCEU).[2][3] They announced a full slate of DC films in October 2014. Man of Steel director Zack Snyder was set to return for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) and Justice League (2017), and spin-off films were planned for the Justice League members and other DC characters.[4]

"The history of DC is pretty messed up. There is the Arrowverse. There is the DCEU which then split and became the Joss Whedon Justice League at one point, became the Snyder-verse at the other point. There was Superman & Lois, there's the Reeves-verse... we came in and did [The Suicide Squad] and that became Peacemaker and all of a sudden Bat-Mite is a real guy... No one was minding the mint, they were just giving away IP like they were party favors to any creators that smiled at them."

—DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn on the state of DC Comics film and television adaptations before the DC Universe[5]

Batman v Superman did not meet Warner Bros.' box office expectations and received negative responses from fans and critics for its dark tone.[6] Warner Bros. felt they could no longer give Snyder the "long leash" he had on Man of Steel and Batman v Superman,[7] and reorganized future DC projects under the new DC Films division.[8] Executive Jon Berg and comic book writer Geoff Johns were set to run DC Films and wanted to make Justice League more optimistic and hopeful.[8][9] When the studio was not satisfied with their efforts, Joss Whedon was hired to write reshoots for the film.[9] Snyder left the film after the death of his daughter in March 2017,[10] and Whedon completed the film with significant changes.[10][11] Justice League was another critical and commercial disappointment for Warner Bros., and the studio was again rethinking its approach to DC in late 2017. Berg and Johns left DC Films, and a planned Batman spin-off film was reworked into director Matt Reeves's The Batman (2022), a film separate from the DCEU.[12]

Warner Bros. intended for future DCEU films to be more standalone than their previous interconnected plan.[13] Walter Hamada was appointed the new president of DC Films in January 2018.[14] That October, James Gunn was hired to write and direct The Suicide Squad (2021),[15][16] a standalone sequel to the earlier DCEU film Suicide Squad (2016) which retained some cast members but otherwise told its own story.[17] He worked with producer Peter Safran, who also produced the DCEU films Aquaman (2018) and Shazam! (2019).[18] In May 2020, Warner Bros. and Snyder announced that his original vision for Justice League would be released on the streaming service HBO Max as Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021).[11] By the end of 2020, Hamada was planning spin-off DCEU television series for HBO Max,[19] including Gunn's The Suicide Squad spin-off Peacemaker (2022–present).[20] At that point, there were around 25 other live-action and animated DC-based series in addition to the various film projects. Hamada planned to connect all of these using the multiverse,[19] which was introduced in The Flash (2023).[21]

Warner Bros. Discovery

In April 2022, Discovery, Inc. and Warner Bros.' parent company WarnerMedia merged to become Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD), led by president and CEO David Zaslav. The new company was expected to restructure DC Entertainment so the film, television, and video game divisions of the company could be aligned. Even before the merger was complete, Zaslav began meeting with candidates to take over DC—including film executive Emma Watts—with the hope of finding an equivalent to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige. Despite some recent successes with DC films and series, Zaslav and WBD felt DC lacked a "coherent creative and brand strategy" and were underusing key characters such as Superman.[22] Hamada was still contracted until 2023, and his supporters felt Zaslav was not giving him enough credit for his DC plans and successes.[23] In June, Zaslav announced that DC Films would be separated from Warner Bros. within the WBD structure but would be overseen by Warner Bros. film chairs Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy until a new DC head was appointed.[24]

At the start of August, WBD decided not to release the DCEU film Batgirl on HBO Max or theatrically, stating that it "simply did not work" and went against Zaslav's mandate to make DC films "big theatrical event films".[25] Soon after, Zaslav said he wanted a new 10-year plan for DC films,[26] and he had enlisted the help of Disney executive Alan F. Horn in finding a new leader for DC. Hamada was reportedly upset by the cancellation of Batgirl and tried to leave DC Films, but was convinced by De Luca and Abdy to stay through the release of Black Adam in October 2022.[27][28] Around that time, Henry Cavill reprised his role as Superman from Man of Steel for a cameo appearance in Black Adam. This was against Hamada's wishes and was approved by De Luca and Abdy when they were approached directly by Black Adam star Dwayne Johnson. Johnson began promoting the idea of a Black Adam vs. Superman film co-starring Cavill in the future, and Warner Bros. began pursuing a sequel to Man of Steel starring Cavill.[29] At the end of August, producer Dan Lin emerged as a potential candidate for taking over DC,[30] but exited talks weeks later.[31] Todd Phillips, director of the standalone DC film Joker (2019), was also considered for the role but remained focused on directing the sequel Joker: Folie à Deux (2024).[30]

Development

DC Studios and initial developments

Filmmaker James Gunn and producer Peter Safran were named co-chairs and co-CEOs of DC Studios in October 2022 and began planning the new DC Universe with a group of writers.

James Gunn and Peter Safran were announced as the co-chairs and co-CEOs of the newly formed DC Studios at the end of October 2022 and were set to take over from Hamada on November 1. It was considered a shocking and unprecedented decision to have a high-profile director like Gunn move into a top executive position at a film studio. Gunn was expected to focus on the creative side of the company while Safran focused on the business and production side, and their deal was reportedly for four years. In addition to their new roles, Gunn and Safran were expected to continue directing and producing projects, respectively, though these would be exclusively for WBD. They would report directly to Zaslav and work closely with De Luca and Abdy.[32] A week after starting their new roles, the pair said they had begun working with a group of writers to develop an eight-to-ten-year plan for the new DC Universe (DCU).[33][34] Zaslav said they had begun work on a bible for future DC projects that would be finished soon. He also said the new plan would emulate Marvel's model of having a single, unified approach to each character, specifically highlighting new approaches to Batman and Superman. By mid-November, Gunn had already begun writing the script for a new DC film while Safran had been "fixing" the DCEU film Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023).[35]

In early December, Gunn and Safran were finalizing their plans ahead of a meeting with Zaslav. Patty Jenkins was no longer developing a sequel to her DCEU films Wonder Woman (2017) and Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) after being told by Gunn and Safran that such a film did not fit within their new plans. Various rumors about the plans were circulating, including that the DCU would be a complete reboot of the DCEU that moved away from the actors cast by Snyder,[36] that Matt Reeves's The Batman films would be integrated with the DCU,[37] and that Aquaman actor Jason Momoa would be recast as the character Lobo.[36] These reveals and rumors led to concerns within the industry and among DC fans about the direction Gunn and Safran were taking the franchise, and Gunn put out a statement saying they "were coming into a fractious environment" and there would be an "unavoidable transitional period as we moved into telling a cohesive story across film, TV, animation and gaming".[37][38] A week later, Gunn announced that they had a slate of projects "ready to go" and would provide more details in 2023. He was writing a new Superman film that would not star Cavill, and Ben Affleck was confirmed to not be reprising his DCEU Batman role moving forward. Gunn and Safran had discussions with Cavill and Affleck about returning to the DCU to respectively portray a new character and direct a project;[39] Affleck later said he was not interested in directing a DCU project.[40]

Chapter One: Gods and Monsters

In January 2023, the DCU was reported to be a "broad but not blanket reset" of the DCEU.[41] On January 31, Gunn and Safran unveiled the first projects from the DCU slate.[5] They revealed the writers who had been working with them on the overall story for the DCU: Drew Goddard, Jeremy Slater, The Flash writer Christina Hodson, Christal Henry, and comic book writer Tom King.[42] The writers took inspiration from the Star Wars franchise, which has "different times, different places, different things", as well as from the series Game of Thrones (2011–2019) and its morally complex characters.[43] The group had planned two "chapters" of story for the eight-to-ten-year plan, with the potential for more chapters after that.[44] The first chapter was titled "Gods and Monsters" and its first five films were Superman: Legacy (later retitled Superman), The Authority, The Brave and the Bold, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, and Swamp Thing.[42][45] Its first five television series were Creature Commandos, Waller, Lanterns, Paradise Lost, and Booster Gold.[42] Any DC projects that did not fit within the shared universe would be labeled "DC Elseworlds". Gunn said the slate combined DC's "diamond characters", such as Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, with lesser-known characters who they hoped would become just as popular.[5] He chose not to retell the origin stories of Batman and Superman because "everyone knows them" already, and pushed back against a suggestion that the DCU was focusing on "niche" characters that only interested comic book fans.[46]

Gunn said The Flash would "reset" the DCEU continuity,[43] making the DCU a "soft reboot" that retains certain cast members and elements of the DCEU while replacing others.[47] Gunn and Safran primarily selected the elements that are carried over based on actors.[48] The pair expected characters to be portrayed by the same actors across mediums, including animation.[43] They said Viola Davis (Amanda Waller) and John Cena (Peacemaker) would reprise their The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker roles in the DCU, and a "rough memory" of those projects would remain.[43] Specific moments from the DCEU are deemed to be canon to the DCU if they are directly referenced in a DCU project.[49] In addition to Davis and Cena, there was potential for DCEU actors Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman), Ezra Miller (the Flash), and Zachary Levi (Shazam) to also reprise their roles in the DCU, but decisions on those characters had not been made by January 2023. No actor would be playing multiple characters, so if Momoa was cast as Lobo he would not portray Aquaman in the DCU as well.[43] Gunn added that the then-upcoming DCEU film Blue Beetle (2023) was disconnected from previous DCEU entries and could connect to the DCU,[43][50] which was reiterated by the film's director Angel Manuel Soto, who said it was part of future DCU plans.[51] Gunn and Safran soon clarified that Xolo Maridueña's Jaime Reyes / Blue Beetle would continue in the DCU but the film itself would stand on its own.[48][52] In July 2023, following the commercial failure of the DCEU film Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Levi cast doubt on his return in the DCU.[53] The next month, Gadot said she would be developing a new Wonder Woman film with Gunn and Safran,[54] but this was soon reported to not be the case. No decision had been made on if Gadot would be reprising her role in the DCU.[55][56] Variety reported in October 2023 that none of the DCEU's Justice League cast would reprise their roles in the DCU.[57]

Safran said they were being flexible with the DCU's release order, though some projects key to the overall story would need to be released in a specific order. He added that they were aiming to release two films and two series a year.[43] Gunn felt studios being "beholden to dates" was an industry-wide issue and wanted to focus on getting the screenplays right for each project before putting them into production. He said this happened with The Suicide Squad and that film did not require any reshoots unlike other DCEU projects.[5] Contrasting the DCU with the MCU, Gunn said the former was set in a "fictional universe" with an alternate history and locations such as Metropolis, Gotham City, Themyscira, and Atlantis, while the MCU is set in a version of the real world,[43][58] with many of its heroes residing in New York City;[59] he expected the DCU to be more planned out from the beginning than the MCU due to the group of writers working on the DCU's overall story;[43] the DCU focuses on traditional superheroes with secret identities;[58] and DCU projects were announced to be based on specific comic book runs and story arcs compared to the MCU approach of taking different elements from throughout Marvel Comics history.[60] The day after the slate announcement, several of the comics that Gunn had named as influences on in-development projects appeared on best-selling lists and some had sold out.[61][62] Another difference Gunn saw between DC and Marvel was the former having more limited runs with unique tones that were separate from "mainstream comics", such as The Dark Knight Returns (1986), Watchmen (1986–87), and All-Star Superman (2005–2008). He intended to replicate this feeling by having the creators of each DCU project bring their own visions.[59]

When Gunn and Safran unveiled the first projects from their DCU slate, they said a second season of Peacemaker was delayed while Gunn was busy writing Superman.[42] In February 2023, Gunn confirmed that Peacemaker was not canceled,[63] and he clarified in October that the second season would be set in the DCU continuity.[64] Gunn further stated in December that the season would be part of the Chapter One slate.[65] DCU television series were initially all intended for the streaming service Max,[5] but in June 2024, WBD shifted many of its planned big-budget Max series to be HBO originals beginning in 2025, including upcoming DCU series.[66]

In December 2024, Gunn explained that despite revealing some titles as part of Chapter One, namely the film The Brave and the Bold and the series Waller and Booster Gold, he would not greenlight a project for production until he is happy with its script and it is "where I want them to be".[67] Shortly after, DC Studios green-lit Mike Flanagan's screenplay for Clayface, giving it a release date of September 11, 2026.[68][69] Gunn explained that a Clayface project had not been planned, but he had been impressed by Flanagan's take on the character after submitting multiple drafts of the script, that he decided to green light the project and find a way to incorporate it into the larger DCU plans.[69]

Superman (2025)

Main article: Superman (2025 film)

Although it is not an origin story, the film focuses on a young version of Superman as a reporter interacting with key characters such as Lois Lane,[81] as he goes on a journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human family in Smallville, Kansas.[70] Safran described Superman in the film as "the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way; he's kindness in a world that thinks of kindness as old fashioned".[42]

James Gunn was already writing a new DC film by the middle of November 2022,[35] and revealed it to be a Superman film the next month.[82] He said it would not star the DCEU's Henry Cavill because the script focused on a younger version of Superman.[82] When Gunn and Peter Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate in January 2023, the film was titled Superman: Legacy.[5] Gunn said the film would take specific inspiration from the comic book All-Star Superman (2005–2008) by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely,[83] along with other comic books.[84] In March, Gunn confirmed he would direct and Safran was producing with him.[70][71] David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan were cast as Superman and Lois Lane in June.[85] The title was shortened to just Superman by the end of February 2024, when filming began at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, Georgia.[45][86] Filming wrapped on July 30.[87] Gunn and Safran consider the film to be the true beginning of the DCU.[88] Superman will be released on July 11, 2025.[5]

Superman is set after the animated DCU series Creature Commandos (2024).[89] Frank Grillo reprises his role as Rick Flag Sr. from Creature Commandos.[90] Additionally, members of the Authority are introduced in Superman ahead of their own film,[91] alongside the introduction of other superheroes including Nathan Fillion as the Green Lantern Guy Gardner.[92][48] Fillion previously portrayed Cory Pitzner / T.D.K. (The Detachable Kid) in The Suicide Squad.[48]

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (2026)

"Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow" redirects here. For the comic book, see Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (comics).

Described by Gunn as "a big science fiction epic film" and a "beautiful, star-spanning tale",[93][94] the film contrasts the jaded character Kara Zor-El / Supergirl, who was raised on a chunk of the destroyed planet Krypton and watched everyone around her die, with her cousin Superman who was raised on Earth by loving parents.[42][93]

When Gunn and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate in January 2023 they included a film adaptation of the comic book miniseries Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (2021–22) by Tom King and Bilquis Evely.[5][42] In November 2023, Ana Nogueira was revealed to be writing the screenplay,[74] and Milly Alcock was cast as Supergirl in January 2024, to debut in another DCU project, reportedly Superman (2025).[95][96] Craig Gillespie entered talks to direct the film in April 2024,[72] and was confirmed as director the next month.[73] Filming is scheduled to begin in January 2025 in the United Kingdom.[97] Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow will be released on June 26, 2026.[73]

Clayface (2026)

Further information: Clayface § Film

In March 2023, filmmaker Mike Flanagan and his Intrepid Pictures partner Trevor Macy met with Gunn and Safran regarding a film centered on the character Clayface, in which he would not be the villain that he typically is portrayed as in the comics. If the film were to move forward, it was unclear at the time if it would be part of the DCU or an Elseworlds film; Matt Reeves's The Batman – Part II (2026) was also expected to feature the character.[98] In December 2024, DC Studios greenlit the film for the DCU with a script written by Flanagan. Reeves was confirmed to be producing alongside Lynn Harris of his company 6th & Idaho Productions. Filming was expected to begin in early 2025, and the studio was searching for a director while Flanagan was committed to his The Exorcist film (2026) and a Carrie television series.[75][99] Safran compared the film's tone to the 1986 film The Fly.[100] Clayface will be released on September 11, 2026.[68]

The Authority

Gunn described the Authority as a team that thinks "the world is completely broken. And the only way to fix it is to take things into their own hands, whether that means killing people, destroying heads of state, changing governments, you know, whatever they want to do to make the world better".[101] Safran compared the morally complex team to Jack Nicholson's character in A Few Good Men (1992).[42]

When Gunn and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate in January 2023, they included a film based on the superhero team the Authority, which was created by Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch for the independent comic book publisher WildStorm. WildStorm was acquired by DC Comics and its characters, including the Authority, were introduced to the DC Comics continuity in 2011. Similarly, Gunn and Safran intended to include WildStorm's characters in their own DC Universe continuity, starting with the Authority.[42] Gunn described the film as a passion project for which he had been working on an outline with the other DC Studios writers.[101]

Gunn said the film would have connections to Superman.[5]

The Brave and the Bold

The film explores members of the "Bat-Family", including introducing Batman's son Damian Wayne as a version of Robin. Gunn said the film would be a "strange father and son story" about Batman and Robin.[5][42]

After Gunn and Safran were hired, Zaslav said of their new plan for the DCU, "There's not going to be four Batmans".[35] When Gunn and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate a month later, they included The Brave and the Bold which introduces the DCU version of Batman. Gunn said the film was based on Grant Morrison's 2006 to 2013 run on the comics.[5][42] Ben Affleck was confirmed to not be reprising his DCEU role of Batman,[39] while Matt Reeves's version of Batman was expected to continue separately from the DCU's version under the DC Elseworlds label.[42] The Flash director Andy Muschietti was hired to direct the film in June 2023, with Barbara Muschietti co-producing alongside Gunn and Safran.[76]

Swamp Thing

A Gothic horror film that explores the "dark origins" of Swamp Thing.[5][42][102]

In December 2022, James Mangold was reported to be interested in working with Gunn and Safran on a DCU project.[38] When the pair unveiled the first projects from their DCU slate in January 2023, they included a new Swamp Thing film.[42] Gunn said it would take specific inspiration from Alan Moore's 1984–85 The Saga of the Swamp Thing comic book run.[103] After the announcement, Mangold posted a picture of Swamp Thing on social media. He was confirmed to be in negotiations to write and direct the film the next day, but was not expected to start work on it until he had completed Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023) and the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown (2024).[104] Mangold's involvement was confirmed that April when he had begun writing. He was simultaneously working on a planned Star Wars film and was unsure which project would move forward first. Gunn described Swamp Thing as a passion project for Mangold.[77]

Despite being tonally darker than other DCU projects, Gunn and Safran intend for Swamp Thing to be interconnected with the rest of the DCU.[5][42]

Untitled Teen Titans film

In March 2024, a film centered on the Teen Titans team was revealed to be in development, with Ana Nogueira writing the screenplay.[78]

Untitled Bane and Deathstroke film

In September 2024, a team-up film centered on the villains Bane and Deathstroke was revealed to be in development, with Matthew Orton writing the screenplay.[79]

Sgt. Rock

By late November 2024, Justin Kuritzkes had written the script for a film featuring the character Sgt. Rock. Luca Guadagnino and Daniel Craig were in negotiations to direct and star in the title role, respectively, after working together with Kuritzkes on the film Queer (2024). Though there was potential for the project to fall apart if the deals with Guadagnino and Craig did not go through, DC Studios was said to be "bullish" on Kuritzkes's script and it was expected to be Guadagnino's next film ahead of his planned adaptation of the novel American Psycho (1991).[80][105] Filming is expected to begin in late 2025.[106]

Creature Commandos

Main article: Creature Commandos (TV series)

Following the events of the first season of Peacemaker, Amanda Waller is no longer able to put human lives in jeopardy for her clandestine operations as she did with the Suicide Squad and Team Peacemaker. Instead, she assembles a black ops team of monsters consisting of Nina Mazursky, Doctor Phosphorus, Eric Frankenstein, the Bride, G.I. Robot, and Weasel, who are led by Rick Flag Sr.[107][116]

Gunn discussed making an animated series for Max after the success of Peacemaker. He wrote the seven-episode series without a deal, based on the Creature Commandos team of monsters. After he was hired to lead DC Studios, Gunn greenlighted the project.[107][117] When Gunn and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate in January 2023, the first project was Creature Commandos.[42][107] Warner Bros. Animation co-produced the series,[118] with Dean Lorey as showrunner and Yves "Balak" Bigerel as supervising director.[109][119] The main cast was confirmed in April,[120][121] including Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr. and Indira Varma as the Bride, who Gunn said was the main protagonist.[120][121][122] Voice recording began by May 2023 and was completed by that August.[123][124] The series is releasing from December 5, 2024, to January 9, 2025,[108] as an "aperitif" for the DCU before Superman.[42][107] The series was renewed for a second season in December 2024.[115]

Sean Gunn reprises his role as Weasel from The Suicide Squad, while Viola Davis and Steve Agee reprise their respective roles as Waller and John Economos from both the film and Peacemaker.[120][121][107] The series acknowledges the overall events in The Suicide Squad, such as the death of Flag's son Rick Flag Jr. (Joel Kinnaman) at the hands of Peacemaker during Project Starfish at Corto Maltese.[49] Members of G.I. Robot's Easy Company are featured, including Maury Sterling as Sgt. Franklin Rock, Robbie Daymond as Little Sure Shot, and Paul Ben-Victor as Bulldozer.[125]

Peacemaker season 2

Main article: Peacemaker season 2

HBO Max announced a second season of Peacemaker in February 2022, with Gunn set to write and direct all eight episodes.[112][110] In February 2023, Gunn said work on the season would continue after Waller had been made,[63] later saying it was his next project after Superman.[126][127] Gunn was writing the season by that October,[128] when he confirmed that it would take place in the DCU continuity.[64] In March 2024, Gunn revealed that Waller had been delayed and the second season of Peacemaker would be produced first. Filming was set to begin later in 2024, simultaneously with Superman. This meant Gunn would no longer be able to direct all of the episodes.[129] Filming began on April 13 with a "pre-shoot",[130] ahead of principal photography which began in June and concluded in late November 2024.[131][132][133] The season is scheduled to premiere in August 2025.[111]

The season is set after the events of Creature Commandos and Superman.[134][89] Frank Grillo reprises his role as Rick Flag Sr. from previous DCU media.[135]

Lanterns

Hal Jordan and John Stewart, two Green Lanterns (intergalactic heroes who wear rings that give them extraordinary powers), investigate a mystery on Earth.[42]

Gunn confirmed in December 2022 that the Green Lantern characters would be an important part of the new DCU.[136] When he and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate a month later, they included Lanterns, a new iteration of a long-in-development Green Lantern series. Safran said the series would be an Earth-based detective story and "a huge HBO-quality event" in the style of the series True Detective (2014–present).[42] Chris Mundy, Tom King, and Damon Lindelof wrote the pilot script and series bible for Lanterns by the end of May 2024.[137] Mundy serves as showrunner for the eight-episode series, which will be released on HBO.[113] In October 2024, Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre were cast to respectively portray Hal Jordan and John Stewart,[138][139] while James Hawes was hired to direct the first two episodes and executive produce.[140] Filming is scheduled to take place from mid-February to early July 2025 in Los Angeles.[141] Gunn said in November 2024 that he intended for the series to be released around the same time as Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, which is scheduled for release in June 2026.[142]

Safran said the mystery that Jordan and Stewart investigate in the series leads into the main storyline for the DCU.[42]

Waller

Waller continues the story of Amanda Waller and Team Peacemaker.[42][143]

In May 2022, a Peacemaker spin-off series was revealed to be in development featuring Amanda Waller, with Christal Henry writing and serving as executive producer alongside Gunn and Safran.[143] When Gunn and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate in January 2023, the second project was Waller, which Gunn said would be a continuation of Peacemaker because that series' second season was delayed while Gunn focused on the rest of the DCU slate. Henry was set as co-showrunner of Waller alongside Jeremy Carver, and Viola Davis was confirmed to be reprising her role as Waller from Peacemaker and the DCEU.[42] The series was scheduled to be released in 2024,[121] as an "aperitif" for the DCU before Superman,[42] but production was delayed by the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes and it is now set to be released after the second season of Peacemaker.[129]

Additional Peacemaker cast members reprise their roles in the series,[42] including Steve Agee as John Economos.[144]

Paradise Lost

This series is a political drama about the scheming and power struggles on the all-female island of Themyscira before the birth of Wonder Woman.[42]

In December 2022, Patty Jenkins was revealed to no longer be developing a sequel to Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 1984 after being told by Gunn and Safran that such a film did not fit within their new plans.[36] When Gunn and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate a month later, they included Paradise Lost, which they compared to Game of Thrones. The title is similar to "Paradise Island Lost", a 2001 comic book story arc by Phil Jimenez and George Pérez about a civil war on Themyscira.[42]

Booster Gold

Mike Carter / Booster Gold is a disgraced former football star in the 25th century who travels back in time to pose as a superhero using basic future technology.[42]

When Gunn and Safran unveiled their initial DCU slate in January 2023, they included Booster Gold, an "outright comedy" series set in the DCU.[42]

Untitled Blue Beetle series

In June 2024, an animated series focused on Jaime Reyes / Blue Beetle was revealed to be in development with Warner Bros. Animation for the DCU. It was expected to build off the DCEU film Blue Beetle but tell its own story, and had the potential to lead to that film's star Xolo Maridueña starring in a DCU film if successful. Miguel Puga had been working on the series since early 2024 and was expected to serve as showrunner and director. Cristian Martinez was set as writer, with the film's director Ángel Manuel Soto, writer Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer, and producer John Rickard all serving as executive producers. Contracts with the main cast were said to be "in flux" but DC Studios had received positive responses when asking the film's cast about returning to reprise their roles.[114] Maridueña confirmed in July that he would reprise his role as Blue Beetle in the series.[145]

Video games

After announcing the initial DCU projects, Gunn confirmed plans to include new video games in the DCU's shared storyline and said these games would be used to tell new stories that could bridge the gap between films and series. They were also being developed so audiences who do not play video games would not miss any overall story elements. He expected the games to take around four years to make.[146] Warner Bros. Games was developing video games for the DCU by January 2024.[147]

Timeline

Upon the announcement of the DCU, James Gunn said that a "rough memory" of events depicted in The Suicide Squad and the first season of Peacemaker would remain in the DCU.[43] He later clarified that The Suicide Squad would not be retroactively incorporated into the DCU and that certain events from that film would only carry over into the DCU's continuity if they were mentioned in DCU media. An example of this is Creature Commandos acknowledging "Project Starfish", the Task Force X mission on Corto Maltese that resulted in the death of Rick Flag Sr.'s son Rick Flag Jr. at the hands of Peacemaker, and the appearance of Weasel, another former member of Task Force X during that mission.[148][149] Gunn explained that most of the events from Peacemaker season one are canon to the DCU, except for the cameo appearance of the Justice League in its season finale, because that team had yet to be formed in the new continuity.[150][151] For Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, Superman takes place after the events of Creature Commandos, while the second season of Peacemaker is set after both of those.[89]

Abandoned projects

The Batman filmmaker Matt Reeves revealed in March 2022 that work on a spin-off series centered on the Gotham City Police Department (GCPD) had led to work on a new idea based on Arkham Asylum. He said the series would expand on Arkham's introduction in the film and explore the origins of different characters related to it. Reeves envisioned a horror tone, with Arkham being depicted as a haunted house.[152] That October, Antonio Campos was hired to write, direct, and serve as executive producer and showrunner of the series,[153] which was being developed for the DCU by then.[154] It was no longer moving forward by July 2024.[155]

DC Elseworlds

"DC Elseworlds" redirects here. For the comic book imprint, see Elseworlds. For the television crossover event, see Elseworlds (Arrowverse).

When announcing the first projects for the DCU in January 2023, Gunn said any project that did not fit into the DCU's shared universe would be labeled as "DC Elseworlds" moving forward. This is the same as how DC Comics uses the Elseworlds imprint to mark comic books that are separate from the main continuity.[158] Safran said there was a high bar that non-DCU projects would have to meet to be greenlighted.[5] Gunn briefly considered integrating Matt Reeves's The Batman franchise into the DCU, but preferred being able to freely tell Elseworlds stories.[67]

The following projects have been confirmed as part of the "DC Elseworlds" label:
