Pictures & DC Comics  by [Eliana Dockterman](https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/)  ## Eliana Dockterman Correspondent Aug 6, 2021 5:01 PM UTC _The Suicide Squad_—not to be confused with its 2016 predecessor _Suicide Squad_, hold the “the”—is the first DC superhero movie to hit the big screen since the COVID-19 pandemic began. The movie also happens to be a soft reboot of the [_Suicide Squad_ story](https://time.com/4430396/suicide-squad-review/). While characters seen in the last movie, like Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) and Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman) seem to know each other from the previous film, there’s absolutely no acknowledgement of Will Smith’s Deadshot or [Cara Delevigne’s Enchantress](https://time.com/4435501/suicide-squad-villains-harley-quinn-joker-enchantress/). It’s a bit confusing. More confusing still is Warner Bros. [“multiple worlds” strategy](https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/27/business/media/dc-superheroes-movies.html) for the DC Entertainment Universe (DCEU). [Like the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)](https://time.com/6080431/loki-finale-explained-mcu/), the DC movies are headed into a multiverse where different versions of the same heroes can exist in parallel universes and—inevitably—traverse the time-space continuum to meet one another. Just like we’ll likely see multiple Spider-Men in Marvel’s _Spider-Man: No Way Home_ before the year is out, it’s guaranteed we’ll see multiple Batmen—one played by Ben Affleck, another by Michael Keaton—in DC’s upcoming movie about The Flash. And you won’t just see them on the big screen: DC is also rolling out more in-universe television series to tie into their films. And sorry [Snydercut fans](https://time.com/5946917/snyder-cut-justice-league-fans/): While DC has announced dozens of projects in development, none of them seem to continue the future stories hinted at at the end of Zack Snyder’s cut of _Justice League_. We’re unlikely to see Martian Manhunter or that sandy apocalypse where Ben Affleck’s Batman and Jared Leto’s Joker team up anytime soon. It’s a lot to keep track of. Here are all the upcoming movies in the DCEU. [**Read More:** How _The Suicide Squad_ End-Credits Scene Sets Up the Future of the DCEU](https://time.com/6083307/the-suicide-squad-end-credits-scene/) ## _Peacemaker_ (January 2022 on HBO Max)  John Cena is the breakout star of _The Suicide Squad_. And now his character Peacemaker (whom Cena has described as “a douchey Captain America”) is getting his own spinoff series. During the pandemic break, _The Suicide Squad_ director James Gunn (who also helms the [_Guardians of the Galaxy_ ](https://time.com/5353136/guardians-of-the-galaxy-cast-james-gunn-reinstatement/)movies) began writing a backstory for Peacemaker and eventually turned the story into a TV series that he will also direct. ## _The Batman_ (March 4, 2022 in Theaters)  Warner Bros. Pictures & DC Comics Ben Affleck has retired his Batman cape. (Well, at least partly. More on that later.) So it’s time for yet another version of the Caped Crusader to grace cinema. This time he’ll be played by Robert Pattinson. Matt Reeves, who helmed _Cloverfield_ and two of the recent _Planet of the Apes_ films, is directing the gothic-looking movie. Zoë Kravitz will play Catwoman; Paul Dano will star as the Riddler; and Colin Farrell will be nearly unrecognizable as the Penguin. This Batman and his cohort of villains will exist on a different “Earth” than Affleck’s Batman and his allies and rivals. That means we’ll probably never see Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne in the same room as Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman. ## _Black Adam_ (July 29, 2022 in Theaters)  Dwayne Johnson attends the premiere of Sony Pictures' "Jumanji: The Next Level" on December 09, 2019 in Hollywood, California. Axelle -- Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic/Getty Images The Rock has previously performed many impossible feats on screen through his appearances in the the _Fast & Furious_ franchise and other action movies. But he has never, technically, played a superhero. Dwayne Johnson has been vying to play Black Adam for years, and his dreams will finally come to life next summer. “Black Adam is blessed by magic with the powers equal to Superman, but the difference is he doesn’t toe the mark or walk the line,” [Johnson wrote on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/B42odCrFF42/). “He’s a rebellious, one of a kind superhero.” The character is a nemesis of Shazam, who got his own movie in 2019\. Assuming _Black Adam_ performs well at the box office, it’s likely we’ll get to see the two square off in a future film. ## _The Flash_ (November 4, 2022 in Theaters)  Ezra Miller as The Flash in Zack Snyder's Justice League HBO Max _The Flash_ has been delayed for four years, but the movie remains the key to the expansion of the DCEU. Ezra Miller will reprise the role of Barry Allen, the super-fast superhero he played in _Justice League._ Affleck will return as Batman in seemingly his last appearance in the DCEU films. But he’s not the only Batman that will pop up in _The Flash_. Michael Keaton will also reprise _his_ role as the 80s-era Batman in the movie. _The Flash_ takes inspiration from the famous _Flashpoint_ comic in which Allen travels back in time to save his mother and, in doing so, creates a parallel timeline. Presumably, one of those timelines contains Affleck’s Batman, the other Keaton’s. The plot is supposed set the stage for future DCEU movies that will be set in the two separate, parallel universes. It will also introduce actor Sasha Calle as Supergirl. ## _Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom_ (December 16, 2022 in Theaters)  Jason Momoa plays the title role in "Aquaman." Courtesy of Warner Bros. Pictures Jason Momoa will return as the protector of the deep in this sequel to [_Aquaman_](https://time.com/5484268/aquaman-post-credits-scene/). In fact, just about everyone involved with the first hit film is back for the second, including stars Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and director James Wan. Warner Bros. has remained mum on the details of the movie, though the title certainly suggests we’ll get to see more of the undersea empire than just Atlantis. ## _Shazam! Fury of the Gods_ (June 2, 2023 in Theaters)  Jack Dylan Grazer as Freddy Freeman and Zachary Levi as Shazam in Shazam! Warner Bros. A hit at the box office, the [_Shazam!_ franchise](https://time.com/5563812/shazam-dc-extended-universe-timeline/) has courted some heavy hitters for its sequel. Helen Mirren and Lucy Liu will join Zachary Levi in the cast for the comedic superhero film. Mirren, specifically, will play the villain Hespera, daughter of the god Atlas ## _Gotham P.D._ (TBA on HBO Max) _The Batman_ director Matt Reeves will produce this HBO Max series that will center on the busiest and most corrupt police department in the history of fiction and presumably tie into the plot of the Robert Pattinson film. ## _Batgirl_ (TBA on HBO Max)  Leslie Grace attends the opening night premiere of "In The Heights" during the Tribeca Festival at the United Palace Theatre on June 9, 2021 in New York City. Angela Weiss—AFP via Getty Images The DCEU has scooped up [_In the Heights_](https://time.com/6072400/in-the-heights-review/) star Leslie Grace to play Batgirl. In the comics, Barbara Gordon, the daughter of Commissioner Jim Gordon, moonlights as a superhero. J.K. Simmons, who starred as Jim Gordon in Justice League, is reportedly set to appear in the new film. _Batgirl_ has been in the works for years—Joss Whedon was attached at one point but then departed the project. The new screenplay comes from from Christina Hodson, who worked on both _Birds of Prey_ and _The Flash._ ## _Blue Beetle_ (TBA on HBO Max)  Xolo Maridueña attends the premiere of "The Suicide Squad" in Los Angeles. Jon Kopaloff—FilmMagic Like _Batgirl_, _Blue Beetle_ will be an HBO Max exclusive, headed to the streamer between 2022 and 2023\. In the comics, Blue Beetle derives his powers from an alien scarab attached to his spine. Xolo Maridueña from _Cobra Kai_ will play the titular hero. ## _Wonder Woman 3_ (TBA in Theaters)  A still from "Wonder Woman 1984" (2020). Everett Collection A third [_Wonder Woman_ movie](https://time.com/4606107/wonder-woman-breaks-through/) was announced right when [_Wonder Woman 1984_](https://time.com/5921769/wonder-woman-1984-review/) dropped in late 2020\. Patty Jenkins will once again direct Gal Gadot in the film. Unlike the last two movies, which were set during World War I and the Reagan Era, respectively, _Wonder Woman 3_ will reportedly take place in modern day. There’s no release date yet so fans will likely have to wait a few years for the next entry, leaving plenty of time to speculate on if and how Chris Pine’s Steve Trevor might appear this time. ## _Supergirl_ (TBA) Sasha Calle has been cast to play Supergirl, who goes by the name Kara Zor-El and is the cousin of Superman. ## Superman Reboot (TBA)  Ta-Nehisi Coates in Manhattan Elias Williams—The Washington Post via Getty Images MacArthur Genius Grant winner [Ta-Nehisi Coates](https://time.com/4053672/macarthur-genius-grant-2015-ta-nehisi-coates-lin-manuel-miranda/) is no stranger to comic books. After writing the bestselling _Between the World and Me_, he took a turn [writing the _Black Panther_ comics](https://time.com/4314966/black-panther-marvel-captain-america/). Now, he’s taking a shot at bringing a superhero to the big screen, specifically a Black Superman. J.J. Abrams is set to produce the movie. ## _Zatanna_ (TBA)  Emerald Fennell, winner of Best Original Screenplay for "Promising Young Woman," poses at the Oscars on Sunday, April 25, 2021 Chris Pizzello-Pool—Getty Images Emerald Fennell, the writer-director who won a Best Original Screenplay Oscar for [_Promising Young Woman_](https://time.com/5929346/promising-young-woman-review/), is penning a script for the most powerful sorceress in the DC universe, Zatanna. ## _Justice League Dark_ (TBA)  Filmmaker J.J. Abrams leaves an event launching Apple tv+ at Apple headquarters on March 25, 2019, in Cupertino, California. (Photo by NOAH BERGER / AFP) (Photo credit should read NOAH BERGER/AFP/Getty Images) Noah Berger—AFP/Getty Images J.J. Abrams’ production company Bad Robot is working on an entire universe of Justice League Dark TV shows and films. The heroes who make up this superhero team face weirder and, well, darker villains than the ones Superman and Batman confront. The mysticism seen in the Zatanna movie could potentially tie into this universe. ## _Green Lantern Corps_ (TBA) The studio’s first attempt at a Green Lantern movie starring Ryan Reynolds faltered and is best remembered as being the butt of several jokes by Reynolds in _Deadpool_. The studio is trying again and has solicited several scripts from various writers over the years, reportedly aiming to premiere the film in 2022 or 2023. ## _Static Shock_ (TBA)  Michael B. Jordan attends a Just Mercy screening in Los Angeles Tommaso Boddi—WireImage _Static Shock_ is one of several projects Michael B. Jordan is working on to produce with the DCEU. Jordan, of course, has made several forays into Marvel superhero films, first starring in ill-fated _Fantastic Four_ reboot, and then in a masterful turn as Killmonger in _Black Panther_. Now he’s taking on a role behind the camera to help improve representation in the DCEU. “I’m proud to be a part of building a new universe centered around black superheroes; our community deserves that,” Jordan told _Entertainment Tonight_. He is also developing his own Black Superman show, though he will not be starring in either series. ## _Blackhawk_ (TBA)  Steven Spielberg attends an awards show in Los Angeles, Calif. on Feb. 16, 2019. Matt Winkelmeyer—Getty Images Steven Spielberg has been set to direct his first DC movie for a few years now, though it’s unclear when production will actually begin. The story centers on the pilot Blackhawk and his squadron during World War II. ## _Joker 2_ (TBA)  Todd Phillips’ dark take on Joker earned 11 nominations, including Actor in a Leading Role for star Joaquin Phoenix, Adapted Screenplay and Best Picture Warner Bros. Love it or hate it, _The Joker_ is getting a sequel. The [controversial film](https://time.com/5684823/joker-movie-controversy/) earned an Oscar win for Joaquin Phoenix and struck a decidedly more serious tone than other entries in the DCEU. And despite Phillips’ [initial intentions](https://www.radiotimes.com/movies/joker-2-release-date/#:~:text=While%20director%20Phillips%20has%20categorically,in%20his%20wake%20and%20many) for _Joker_ to be a one-off, the director is now writing a sequel to the supervillain drama. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/6083354/suicide-squad-dc-movies-future/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/6083354/suicide-squad-dc-movies-future/"},"headline":"Here Are All the Upcoming DCEU Movies and TV Shows After The Suicide Squad","datePublished":"2021-08-06T17:01:12.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T04:55:00.324Z","description":"After The Suicide Squad, Warner Bros. has 18 movies and TV shows in the works for the DCEU, including The Suicide Squad spinoff, Peacemaker","url":"https://time.com/6083354/suicide-squad-dc-movies-future/","keywords":["movies"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt23383931eb458d94/698a1bacb3fce3f4a70c829a/john-cena-joel-kinnaman-suicide-squad.jpeg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliana Dockterman","jobTitle":"Correspondent","url":"https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt23383931eb458d94/698a1bacb3fce3f4a70c829a/john-cena-joel-kinnaman-suicide-squad.jpeg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"john-cena-joel-kinnaman-suicide-squad","caption":"John Cena and Joel Kinnaman in The Suicide Squad","creditText":"Warner Bros.
