Warner Bros. Unveils Updated DC Films Slate But There Are Some Notable Omissions

Warner Bros. revealed its updated DC Films slate today and among some surprising reveals are a fair few notable omissions of movies we thought were almost certainly on the way in the next few years...

At the Comic-Con Experience 2017 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Warner Bros. held a panel promoting a number of upcoming movies. As you might expect, the DC Films Universe also got a mention and that came with an updated reveal of the releases which are on the way. However, the announcement was perhaps most notable for the absence of several key projects which are supposed to be in the works.

Wonder Woman 2 was the first to be presented but the "2" was shown as "II" in Roman numerals, so that could be an indication of how the title will appear on promo art and the like moving forward.

Aquaman followed, as did Flashpoint, Suicide Squad 2, Shazam, Batgirl, Green Lantern Corps, The Batman, and Justice League Dark. That's an impressive lineup of movies but there are lots of movies which weren't mentioned, including Cyborg, Deathstroke, Gotham City Sirens, Harley Quinn, The Joker vs. Harley Quinn, Nightwing, the standalone Joker movie, and the long rumoured Justice League 2.

Perhaps those movies are just too early in the stages of development for title cards to be shown but Warner Bros. is clearly still committed to the DC Films Universe for now. What do you guys think?

Oh WB...

I'm waiting on the forced Affleck appearance to "debunk" his depart from the franchise.

What slate change number is this?
