Matt Reeves clarified that his Batman movie just won't have cameos or references to other JL members, it's still in the world of the DCEU. That's what I thought. The internet hooplah over that was desperation on a slow news day.
Gotham City Sirens is still in development. So we're getting 3 Harley movies, and three Joker movies (one of them being the Scorsese elseworld prequel). http://www.cbr.com/gotham-city-sirens-still-happening/
Joss Whedon is getting writing credit on Justice League. I assume that means Zack Snyder is still the main director.
Wonder Woman just passed Civil War domestically. In the next couple days, it'll pass Iron Man 3 and crack into the top 5 superhero films of all time. http://www.cbr.com/wonder-woman-passes-captain-america-civil-war-box-office/
John Cena eyed for Shazam. http://www.cbr.com/shazam-cena-sasse-billy-batson-character-bio-description/
I can definitely see that. Cena's not a bad actor, and he's shown he can do comedy (he's hilarious in Trainwreck). He's also a good physical opponent for The Rock, if they ever get Black Adam on screen. Interestingly, the casting sheet refers to the character as Captain Marvel, not as Shazam (as the character is now called in the comics).
not to disagree but I'm eager as fuck to see Reeves do with Batman what he did with the Apes. I have no position on whether it's continuity or not but it's a movie I want to see.
yeah, I noticed that in the video describing him and that dude from Galavant as the finalists (which is to say, suits will definately want Cena for the name rec if nothing else) I was really taken aback to hear that name but.... GODDAMIT THE MAN'S NAME IS CAPTAIN MARVEL! l don't give a damn what the lawyers say.
Danny Elfman has incorporated the John Williams Superman theme into the Justice League score. http://www.cbr.com/justice-league-john-williams-superman-theme/
Maybe it's like how Speilberg doesn't want Speilberg movies in "Ready Player One", he thinks it looks like it's sucking his own dick.
If I was Spielberg, I'd suck my own dick...publicly...and say "That's right! I'm sucking my own dick. Why? Jaws, Raiders, E.T., Jurassic Park, Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan. I'm Spielberg, bitches!"
