Following the divisive success of Joker, Warner Bros is allegedly planning on giving another one of the DC Comic villains their own movie. The news came via CheatSheet who claim the news came from “a credible comic book insider” named Mike Sutton.

Sutton wrote on his invite-only Facebook page: “No Man of Steel; he’s pure fiction in this alternate universe.”

He continued: “To WB, this has the potential of being a modern-day Citizen Kane. You see Luthor grow up from being an awkward intellectual kid to corrupt wealthy businessman to president of the United States. Slap on an R rating and leave the comic books behind but perhaps put a twist on the myth such as making Lois Lane his First Lady, but also the reporter who brings him down.”

Sutton went on to reveal that Warner Bros is interested in creating an R rated Lex Luthor movie. Marvel has homed in on the family market whereas the DC universe has the opportunity to create darker movies for an adult audience.

More news on the possible Lex Luthor solo movie to be shared when announced.

The Twilight star and Warner Bros. have officially inked a deal for the actor to play the superhero in The Batman. The forthcoming feature is reportedly an origin story with Matt Reeves (War for the Planet of the Apes) at the helm.  

Pattinson edged out Nicholas Hoult for the coveted role, and the big decision was made by the studio Friday. Sources confirm that negotiations are already underway.

Pattinson is set to take over the role from Ben Affleck, who starred as the Caped Crusader in two DC films. Entertainment Weekly reports that the studio intends to sign Pattinson for a three-picture deal.

The superhero film tells the origin story of Arthur Curry (aka Aquaman) who must agree to save his people by leading them against his own half-brother whose plan is to the seven underwater kingdoms against the surface world.

The Jason Momoa movie has been making waves at the box office (ahem) and has now reached $1 billion worldwide.

The feat has not been achieved by a DC film since Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises was released in 2012.

Aquaman, which is produced by Warner Bros., has also become the first billion-dollar hit since 2014 that was not released by either Disney or Universal.

Fans of Rose and the iconic DC Comics superhero were treated to a first look image of the actress as Batwoman. 

The CW and producers Warner Bros. TV unveiled the first image of Rose clad in the iconic black-and-white caped catsuit complete with Kate Kane’s signature red locks and of course the bat insignia emblazoned on her chest. In charge of costume design is award-winning designer Colleen Atwood (Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl). 

The superhero will make her first appearance in the DC crossover event this December. The standalone feature is produced by Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schecter. The official logline for Batwoman reads:

“Armed with a passion for social justice and a flair for speaking her mind, Kate Kane soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city’s criminal resurgence. But don’t call her a hero yet. In a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham’s symbol of hope.”

As the first out actress to star as the first gay lead superhero, Ross suffered social media backlash to her casting. After celebrating her new role in August, writing on Instagram, “The Bat is out of the bag and I am beyond thrilled and honored. I’m also an emotional wreck.. because this is a childhood dream. This is something I would have died to have seen on TV when I was a young member of the LGBT community who never felt represented on TV and felt alone and different,” the actress quit social media. 

The three-night DC crossover event kicks off Sunday, December 9.
