DCEU Blog - DC's Future, The Penguin Casting, Stargirl Cancelled And More

Another busy month for DC fans and following the appointment of James Gunn and Peter Safran as heads of DC Studios, things are certainly moving along.

James Gunn and Peter Safran have made it crystal clear that only they and David Zaslav know what the full plan for DC will be.

However Gunn has stated we'll start to learn stuff about this upcoming plan over the next few months while Zaslav has stated there won't be four Batmen in the DC Universe. Take what you will from that.

Joker: Folie A Deux has officially gone into production and hopefully we'll get a look of Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga fairly soon.

Shazam! Fury Of The Gods will apparently be two hours and ten minutes long. The cast will be writing a tie in comic book, due for release early next year to coincide with the movie.

Cristin Milioti has been cast as Sofia Falcone for The Penguin HBO Max series and will be Oswald's main antagonist as she gets out of Arkham after serving a decade long sentence. Filming begins in January for the series.

Other characters who'll factor into the series will be Alberto Falcone, Mike Stone, Francis Cobblepot and Victor Aguilar. The latter is an original character for the series.

Warner Brothers Television Studios are close to striking an animation deal with Amazon for DC branded content.

Quick reminder the first half of the fourth season of Doom Patrol will stream on HBO Max from December 8th.

Stargirl has officially been cancelled after three seasons. 

DC will be factoring into this week's CCXP event after all with booths for Shazam! Fury Of The Gods, The Flash and Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom. 

Batman: The Animated Series star Kevin Conroy passed away earlier in the month at the age of 66. 

DC Comics will have another major comic event in 2023 titled Dawn Of The DCU, spanning multiple titles and serving as another jumping on point for readers.

The Sandman was renewed by Netflix for a second season earlier in  the month.

That's it for the month. Let's see what the last month of 2022 brings for the brand.
