Warner Bros.
To Expand the DC Universe With 6 Superhero Films a Year.
DC Films head Walter Hamada has laid out Warner Bros.’ intricate plan to expand the DC universe.
.
He told 'The New York Times’ that the studio is set to expand its slate of superhero movies for both theaters and release on HBO Max.
.
Starting in 2022, up to four titles will be released in theaters.
And two more “riskier” projects will be produced specifically for HBO Max.
The streaming platform will also be home to a number of spinoff projects, such as ‘Suicide Squad’ spinoff ‘The Peacemaker’ and a ‘Batman’ spinoff.
.
With every movie that we’re looking at now, we are thinking, ‘What’s the potential Max spinoff?’, Walter Hamada, to 'The New York Times'.
The boldest change — Warner Bros.
Has decided to create a DC multiverse, with 'Wonder Woman' existing on Earth 1 and Robert Pattinson’s ‘Batman’ belonging to Earth 2.
.
In addition, the DC extended universe will have its own ‘Batman’ saga running simultaneously with Pattinson’s ‘Batman.’.
I don’t think anyone else has ever attempted this … But audiences are sophisticated enough to understand it.
If we make good movies, they will go with it.
, Walter Hamada, to 'The New York Times'
