News recently broke out of a leaked set list of films Warner Bros. had ready to schedule for their Justice League series. The first part of the series started off with 2013's
Man of Steel. The rest is scheduled as follows:
- MAY 6th, 2016: Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice
- JULY 2016: Shazam
- CHRISTMAS 2016: Sandman
- MAY 2017: Justice League
- JULY 2017: Wonder Woman
- CHRISTMAS 2017: Flash/Green Lantern team-up
- MAY 2018: Man of Steel 2
This is NOT a confirmed list of films, but what definitely does seem likely is the
Wonder Woman film happening sooner than later as
Gal Gadot (
Fast and Furious series) was already cast last year.
Justice League coming out in May 2017 can really happen and I'm going to bet they start filming for it sometime in Spring/Summer 2015. If anything else,
Comic-Con in July will surely bring us some answers and probably a confirmed scheduled with official casting... and possibly a turf war if both the panels of
Avengers: Age of Ultron and
Batman V. Superman are there.

Speaking of casting, on again/off again rumors of
Jason Momoa (
Game of Thrones) having been cast in a roll have come back with a vengeance as it is being
reported that Khal Drogo himself will play
Aquaman in both Batman V. Superman and the Justice League film.

Shazam, not to be confused with the
music app or Shaq's
Kazaam, is about a boy who is granted powers by an ancient Wizard named
Shazam, to transform him into a Superman like hero named
Captain Marvel. Rumors long ago had
Dwayne Johnson circling the roll, but nothing has come up recently.
The
Sandman title is probably lost on a good deal of you. I myself had to look up who this guy is. Basically he's the lord of Dreams and goes by the name of Morpheus and is pretty dark. This film will be part of the same universe as the Justice League films but won't be a direct link to them. Kind of like how the upcoming
Guardians of the Galaxy film is not a direct link to the
Avengers. The film looks to have
Joseph Gordon-Levitt (
INCEPTION,
50/50) star, write, and direct in the production.
And finally just to touch on the
Flash/
Green Lantern team up, NO
Ryan Reynolds will NOT be returning as Green Lantern. That
movie is separate and will have nothing to do with these films.
