Wonder Twins is rumoured to be cancelled.


JJ Abrams, James Gunn and Matt Reeves projects are the ones in the least danger.
So that means Constantine, JL Dark, Zatanna and prolly Green Lantern is still on.

Anything not a significant part of the DCEU is getting cancelled, except if you part of Reeves verse.

Damn, my man.
Where was Zaslav when they made Birds of prey? I like how he is trying to create a continuity first before moving to the smaller characters. Like what was the point of a wonder twin movie when we haven't been introduced to the GL or had a Batman centric Dceu film?

Whatever problem the DCEU is facing is probably caused by the top officials.

One mistake the DCEU made and will never admit is the sacking of Zack Snyder.
The man had a well laid out plan but they allowed their greed and pride to overcome them.

When ZSJL came out four years after the thrash that Whedon did, the movie literally crashed the HBO streaming site due to how much streaming they had.
Up until this day , they haven't told the world how much money the made from ZSJL for fear of giving credit to Snyder.

I gave up on the DCEU when they sacked Snyder.

That Wonder Twins was a shitty deal. The hope was just cause it was being produced by HBOMax, if not...

In his massive cancellation plans I hope he doesn't touch Zatanna, Static Shock and Black Canary. Those early projects greenlit before this year all mostly made sense. Except for PlasticMan or Hourman.

Personally I feel they should shelf those projects for now unless they add something to the overall narrative and continuity. Zatanna leads to JLD but black canary doesn't add any urgency to the plot for it to go into production ahead of JL big guns neither do static shock etc. You only make those when the Dceu is already standing. Then those characters can usher in a new Dceu just like marvel is doing. Process by process not just scatter everything to divide audience, rather grow an audience.
To me, after Flash, they should do a Superman and Batman films to develop their characters, make an else world film showing other universes then work towards a Crisis storyline, from there create a stable universe and start introducing minor characters in solo films.

Lol, you peeps should quit with this ludicrous conspiracy theories. It's getting stale already. Since how many years they're still withholding data. undecided

System crashing is synonymous with new streaming services especially when they're in their formative years and receive high volume of traffic. So y'all should stop making it as if ZSJL was the only one.
Third party data says otherwise.

Snyder also had plan for only 5 movies not the well laid out plan for a whole universe you peeps always claim all the time.

All the projects in that pic I posted leads to something bigger except maybe Madame Xanadu (still links to JLD).
Black Canary you think ain't worth it leads to a major character introduction — Green Arrow. GA is a major character in Justice League too.

A major Superman movie is in the works. Confirmed by Toby Emmerich last month.

All these projects are needed. As they greenlight new movies, they can go hand in hand in introducing other lesser known characters. No be must make we follow Marvel model abeg. Na wetin cause our steep fall from grace in the first place.
We don't have time for slowly introducing big characters one by one, we know how long these projects take. The present plan is going well and excitement is back in the DCEU.

People said we didn't need Shazam, but now it's the main reason we have Black Adam and the introduction of another BIG team— the JSA. Ppl said TSS wasn't needed and a flop but it spawned a massive success in Peacemaker and has several loveable characters both hardcore fans and general audience loves. I know how many peeps said no one asked for Peacemaker here, but they quiet now. That TV show's success has shown WB the potential of DC projects, even the obscure characters if done well. It's a formula for team up movies or shows.

What I hope is that they mix the big projects with the smaller ones and deeper connectivity just like this year and next year slate. With the promise of HBOMax we can do lots of projects now. Next year we're having a record at least 4 movies releasing next year, with a possible two from HBOMax.
That much number of content ensures there's space for both big and small movies. They should just have a balanced mix, that's all.

But as you said the main Justice League is also important (Supes, Batman, GL, Cyborg or maybe Martian Manhunter).

Green Arrow is not a major player in DC bro. And why not make his film straight than black canary? Black canary doesn't improve on the current slate compared to green lantern and Martian manhunter. Zatanna is understandable the rest should be shelved. Oliver Queen can be introduced in a Batman film or a suicide squad film, right now bringing black canary on big screen makes no sense.
Black Adam introduces the history of Shazam and the JSA. Every current slate brings something new, what does static shock, black canary, plastic man bring when main players like Cyborg don't have films?
Am not against their films but they should be the next generation of the DCEU, which is why I feel Batgirl is too soon except her film adds something to the story.

Currently Green Arrow has played huge roles in the comics with big storylines like Dceased and death of the Justice League with Black Canary, it would be wise if they capitalise on that.

Lol, WTF. Purpl3 come see wetin your gee dey talk. Green Arrow ain't a major player?

Bruh, to me Green Arrow is almost at same level of importance as Cyborg. Cyborg has important roles mainly cos of his appearance with the Justice League and his Apokolips links. In terms of popularity Green Arrow would go toe to toe with Cyborg if not bigger. Not everything revolves around the JL. You may not be a member of the league and still be as popular.

Black Canary is an HBOMax project not theatrical release. It's planned to stimulate interest and popularity for Green Arrow before his theatrical debut (hopefully a solo). Plastic Man is shelved, no concrete devt on that project since announcement.
Static Shock brings a possible Booster Gold story and they're both fan favourites. SS also brings something fresh in the DCEU, a Black character and light-hearted, something to win the needed pg-13 audience. He's literally the Spiderman of DC.

Batgirl brings in one of Batsy's recurring rogue gallery — Firefly. It also has Keaton's Batman serving in a mentorship role.

Inclusion. In an industry dominated by males, studios are trying to put out more female centric movies. Besides, people loved Black Canary from BoP, so it makes sense to introduce Arrow from her movie and if he’s also loved, may be given his own movie.

Seeing as Zaslav is doing things differently, WBD should leave the politics after the Dceu stands. MCU didn't start the inclusion thing early in it's franchise did they? I am not against those films, just develop the important ones first. And right now, Oliver Queen and Dinah Lance don't further the current narrative.
Imagine MCU started with female avengers or female centric films or immediately after Iron man, bring in pepper as Rescue and ditching Tony Stark. Or after Captain America TFA then bring in Sam as Cap. There was a continuity.

Oga, when it comes to the general big event GA is not a major player. You don't rate his importance as you rate the traditional 7. GA is not even in the first 7 of the JL, and considering the 7 aren't even developed you can't jump in and start bringing in second tier characters. Forget the recency bias, GA is low level. Arrow and Smallville reinvented his popularity. GA wasn't as popular in 2008.
So ditching the big 7 to introduce his wife and him doesn't make sense.
Forget the comics you have been reading, when you talk about the big guns, you don't call Oliver Queen. Oliver Queen should be introduced gradually and likewise Dinah Lance.

Currently. Cause he has been made popular. But the way the Dceu started GA isn't a big player, you can't shoehorn him and his wife while Green lantern and Martian manhunter and even Batman are strangers to the Dceu.
You introduce them in phase 2 and considering the earlier management messed things up, it's better to work with those already introduced first before moving to the next phase.
That's what Zaslav wants to do. Focus on the priority first. That's why in JL origin stories, they don't start with Oliver Queen and Dinah Lance forming the league.

With this your logic, then I don't see any reason Cyborg movie should be made ahead of Martian Manhunter.

Cyborg ain't in the traditional first 7. Martian is.
Cyborg only got popular cos of Teen titans Go cartoons and Snyder's BVS etc.

Except he has already been introduced in the current DCEU and was significant in the JL movie. You are just choosing to ignore my point. I am not against the characters getting a movie bro. I just want them to develop what they introduced first before bringing in new players. If they had included Oliver in the DCEU JL roster, I would be clamoring for his movie.
If you were present on this thread pre BvS, you would notice I was pro an Oliver Queen and Dinah Lance in the DCEU but right now, they should be the center stage after the big 7 closes their chapter. You think I am not eager to see an Atom film or the JSA? But they should be built up not rushed in.

Aight... I get you now.
it's just that some of these things takes time. You see how long we're waiting for GL series, something that was announced since 2019. Constantine since 2018 and Flash.
That's why I wish they forge ahead with the slate they have now while also greenlight movies for the main established characters. Some are faster getting to production stage than others. That way fans don't get starved of content while also expanding the universe.

That way DC stays in the consciousness of General audience. Consistency is key.

I'm just happy we're getting content. You know the pain when those years MCU will be getting 3 movies per year and DC is stuck with just 1 movie. On occasion just 2 films. 2018-21 weren't easy.

Great idea. If it was up to me, before we get a new JL movie will be 2026. Use 2025 to establish the remaining big characters. GL & Martian and maybe a Supes movie.

That sub_franchise is still marred by Josstice League shithood and bad press. The audience would have enough time to build confidence before the next one.
