DCEU News: Flash/Black Adam Begin Filming, DCFanDome Returns

A slightly slower month compared to the last two but at the same time, there's some interesting developments in the DC Universe.

The Flash (November 4th 2022) after years of development hell has finally began filming in the UK and while no further casting has been revealed yet, director Andy Muschietti has revealed the logo for the upcoming movie with Ezra Miller in the title role.

Zack Snyder's Justice League will be available to buy physically from May 24th and it was recently revealed that Wayne T. Carr had been cast as John Stewart but his scene was removed.

Lucy Liu has been cast as the villain Kalypso for Shazam!: Fury Of The Gods (June 2nd 2023). She will be the sister of Helen Mirren's Hespera and Rachel Zegler's unnamed character. Filming will start in May. 

Pilou Asbaek has been cast in an undisclosed role for Aquaman 2 (December 16th 2022) as the sequel will start filming in the UK during the summer.

Both Mo Amer and Uli Latukefu has been cast in undisclosed roles for Black Adam (July 29th 2022). The film has now began production.

DCFanDome will return on October 16th, so expect a lot of reveals for both upcoming movies and streaming shows.

Michael B. Jordan has mentioned working on a draft for the Static Shock movie. 

Legends Of Tomorrow, which returns for a sixth season on the CW from May 2nd will see Dominic Purcell exit the series as Mick Rory. The 15 episode season will also see the Waverider crew tackle aliens, singing competitions, animated antics, their own take on Baby Yoda and a solo adventure for John Constantine. Former cast member Maisie Richardson-Sellers will direct the penultimate episode of the season while Caity Lotz will direct the fifth episode and David Ramsay episode seven. Jes McCallan will also direct an episode this season.

Stargirl's second season will air on the CW from August 10th while the second half of Supergirl's sixth and final season will air from August 24th.

Titans has cast Vincent Kartheiser as Scarecrow and Sharon Ferguson  as Luand'r, the mother of Starfire and Blackfire. McKinley Freeman will play Justin Cole and Cole Young has been cast as a teenage version of Jason Todd.

Doom Patrol's third season has cast Ty Tennant and Sebastian Croft as the Dead Boy Detectives while the Sisterhood Of Dada will also factor into the new season.

Last but not least, a happy 36th birthday to our Wonder Woman, Gal Gadot and here's hoping we get some information on her third solo outing as the heroic Amazon later in the year.

Some interesting stuff to mull over there.
