Greetings, 10 months ago I made a post detailing information regarding the driectors, writers, cast, showrunners, producers, etc of all the DC Universe projects announced back in January of 2023. Then some time after the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes I made a new one with new information that we got after the strikes.

Actors confirmed to return from the DCEU:

1. Xolo Maridueña - Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle.

Cause i remember reading that the show's creators were going to use either Barry or Wally to appear on Smallville but DC wouldn't allow them so they used Bart instead, But to be honest it would have been better if Barry would have appeared on Smallville, like he would have been a college student who got his powers like Ezra Miller's portrayal or a young CSI either which.

There used to be a Twitter for it, but we can only get to it through the Wayback machine. I couldn't find the documentary anywhere. If any of you guys know where it is or if it was canceled, I'd be interested to know.

The twitter bio says "Miller's Justice League Mortal - Documentary. 2015-2017. R.I.P." which makes me think it was scrapped. If anyone knows anything about it, that would be super sick.

Which DCU film do you think is next? The Brave and the Bold?? The Authority?

I think he'd be a hit with viewers, being an alien who feels isolated from ohters but not always fitting in like Superman and Supergirl do. Plus, he brings a lot of superpower variety. Much as I like the heroes we've seen in both the DC and Marvel live action movies, we often see a lot of the same powers over again. J'onn has quite a few not used as often

I wasn't a fan of how Snyder handled him so I hope he gets another chance at live action

Heath Ledger portrayal as the Joker is awesome, no doubt. However, where there things you didn't like about the character? It can be about anything, the acting, the costume, his parts in the story, etc?

All I really wanna see is a fun action packed film with Caleb McLaughlin as Virgil Jones/Static Shock and Dante Brown as Adam Evans/Rubberband Man. I’d have them go against Ebon, played by Winston Duke.

Also, I know there’s a popular Jaden Smith fancast online for Virgil Jones, but I’ll say NO to that. I want Caleb McLaughlin because he can actually act.

I'm hoping it turns out to be an epic saga, but DC has had mixed success with live-action movies in the past. I'm curious: will they continue with the films until they reach Justice League, or will they resort to the usual WB approach and cancel the rest of the planned DC universe? It feels like they're putting all their eggs in one basket with the Superman movie.

This particular scene is the one I'm interested in though Jesse has a similar wardrobe throughout the movie. I'm just curious if anyone can identify the brand of shoes/suit he is wearing?

Thanks in advance, want to steal his look.

I really can't understand where all of the hate on this Superman suit reveal is coming from!

I can understand that at face value it is underwhelming in the fact that it's not a very heroic pose, the suit does not fit so well, it shows the strongest superhero in quite a vulnerable light, but isn't that the whole point! I feel like the symbolism of all these elements is completely lost on the majority (atleast those posting online).

My personal take on this image is that we are going to be seeing a young (hence why cavill couldn't do it), immature, inexperienced, vulnerable man literally having to fit into the shoes of a destined great superhero. His suit does not fit because he still has to grow into the superhero he is destined to be, it's an origin story!
