u/Moisttquel34s:

Flash sequel! Things are looking up, Flash bros. We're not forgotten!

u/JamesMtdemaUp:

World's Finest fuck yeah! I kind of wish it had happened before the Justice League movie, though.

u/WhiredCuran92 (replying to u/JamesMtdemaUp):

Why?

u/JamesMtdemaUp (replying to u/WhiredCuran92):

It would have been fun for Superman and Batman to team up like, them meeting in their own movie first. It would have built up more hype for Justice League.

u/UiorcDerse_Iort:

So we are getting sequels for all of them?

u/Holypuddinge (replying to u/UiorcDerse_Iort):

Well, not for Batman.

u/UiorcDerse_Iort (replying to u/Holypuddinge):

He already has a trilogy, and even then I'm sure he'll appear in World's Finest and Suicide Squad. Batman's not going anywhere.

u/Phelps4g_rterd:

I don't really get why Suicide Squad is here. Is this DC's answer to Guardians of the Galaxy?

u/Iotrcetrd_89ed (replying to u/Phelps4g_rterd):

I'm sure Adler is only doing this so that his girlfriend, whom he cast as Harley Quinn, can get a major movie. I'm sure she'll be the star as well. Nepotism at its finest.

u/DdAdlerqueen (replying to u/Iotrcetrd_89ed):

What kind of stupid take is this?

u/Iotrcetrd_89ed (replying to u/DdAdlerqueen):

It's the truth. She's literally his girlfriend. You think that didn't influence the casting?

u/AIopre_2yFan (replying to u/Iotrcetrd_89ed):

She didn't need Daniel to get roles. She is a great actress and is in one of the most anticipated movies of this year and is probably getting an Oscar nod. This is a braindead take.

u/Iotrcetrd_89ed (replying to u/AIopre_2yFan):

Yeah, sure. Keep defending nepotism.

u/KaraO8dce:

I am very excited for Man of Tomorrow. I'm pretty sure we're getting Supergirl in the movie.

u/Hombyt89:

I'm glad the sequels are coming fast. Also, like will World's Finest and Infinity War be released in the same month? Holy shit, that will be something to see.

u/Homelanderd (replying to u/Hombyt89):

Easy win for Infinity War.

u/Oporin_invest (replying to u/Homelanderd):

Considering how the last few clashes went, and how Age of Ultron and Aquaman performed, yeah, no. DC is ahead by miles.

u/Homelanderd (replying to u/Oporin_invest):

Lmao, DC fucked up with this lineup. Where is Justice League 2? And World's Finest is a Civil War ripoff. Don't even start with the "we won an Oscar" comment. Nobody cares.

u/Oporin_invest (replying to u/Homelanderd):

Civil War is literally heroes fighting each other. World's Finest is a team-up. How is that a ripoff? And yeah, we DID win an Oscar. Cope harder.

u/Homelanderd (replying to u/Oporin_invest):

Keep living in denial. The MCU is going to dominate 2018 and 2019.

u/Rakethelawn (replying to u/Homelanderd):

RemindMe! 3 years

u/MateurnAll88:

I hope the Justice League movie will be able to do all these characters justice. Seven heroes is a lot to balance and get right; they really need to nail the interactions.

u/Revelmoon:

Suicide Squad and World's Finest were the two unexpected ones for me. I did NOT see those coming.

u/Orgyontheounth:

Holy shit, do you guys know how much superhero content we're going to be getting for the next three years? I mean, I don't think the MCU and DCU can coexist anymore. One will fall by the end of 2019. I'm sure of it.

u/Halponted (replying to u/Orgyontheounth):

Nah, there's room for both. Stop being dramatic.

u/Orgyontheounth (replying to u/Halponted):

RemindMe! 3 years

Ok, ok this showed up on my feed. The Great Enemy??

@AdlerWife88 (replying to @Marywhelps24)

@Marywhelps24 (replying to @AdlerWife88)

Wow, please tell me this is just for show, like not serious?

@AdlerWife88 (replying to @Marywhelps24)

She's literally keeping him from his soulmate. Wake up.

@JoannaStan

WHERE ARE THEY?? WHEN WAS THIS?? Did he come to see her on tour in Europe?!

@Joannahebest

One of my friends who's working on the Game of Thrones production said Joanna was there too!! Is she in it?! OMG I can totally see Daniel casting her.

@TeamJoaniel

The way he LOOKS at her… oh yeah, it's happening.

@Adlerovan

He looks so much happier with Joanna than he EVER does with you-know-who.

@Adlerovan

FREE HIM!!! He deserves to be with someone who actually understands him and makes him smile like THIS.

@Joadined

So wait when did we change from DanJo to Joaniel?

======

@JoanielForever

YEAH IT'S OVER!!! LOOK AT THEM!!! She's literally FUMING and he looks miserable.

[Quote tweeting @TMZ: TROUBLE IN PARADISE? Daniel Adler and Margot Robbie spotted in Morocco looking TENSE. She does NOT look happy!

(Images: Margot walking ahead of Daniel, arms crossed, clearly upset; another of Daniel trailing behind, looking frustrated; a third of them sitting separately at a restaurant.)

@AdlerWife88 

THEY DON'T LOOK HAPPY AT ALL. It's all giving "about to break up."

@JoanielShipper 

Daniel even brought his SISTER along as a buffer! It's DONE. Now our queen just needs to not mess this up like she did in high school.

@TeamJoaniel 

Compare THESE [TMZ photos] to the Malta pics with Joanna [Joanna photos]. The difference is NIGHT AND DAY.

@Umbrielphins

Y'all are reading WAY too much into a single photo. Couples have disagreements. This doesn't mean anything.

@JoanielForever: @Umbrielphins Denial is a river in Egypt, babe. Wake up and see what's right in front of you.

@Jalenjackson

Daniel, PLEASE. Percy Jackson. Take a year off and write it all.

@umardomanu

Why is Brad Bird directing both Man of Tomorrow AND Justice League? How will that even work?

@Hollywillimans

@DanielAdler Is Suicide Squad rated R?

@DanielAdler (replying to @Hollywillimans)

Yes.

@kellyion

What happened to the Elden Ring sequel, Daniel? You can't keep us Elden Ringers waiting. 

@Brokeminh (replying to @kellyion)

You guys need a new fandom name.

@Herbetdiaries

Hey Daniel, when is your Dune adaptation coming out?

@DanielAdler (replying to @Herbetdiaries)

We'll begin production by the end of 2019.

Daniel Adler Enters the Dark Universe Revealed to Be Writing for Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein [Article Link]

Like... how does this guy have time for all this?

Top Comments:

u/Drakethevampire

The Cross-Adler partnership is starting to pay off well. Between The Thing and now Frankenstein with del Toro, it's all coming together.

u/Katenmpas

Oh, this will be great. I watched The Thing yesterday, and damn Adler really knows horror. That movie was genuinely terrifying. Can you imagine how good the movie will be with him working with del Toro?

u/Voircha

I knew Adler was doing something for the Dark Universe, but wasn't it supposed to be The Last Voyage of the Demeter? Like, he mentioned it two years ago.

u/Liaradheptad (replying to u/Voircha)

That's still happening. Julian Cross is directing that one. Adler is just writing Frankenstein with del Toro.

u/Daemsonirdis

Loved The Thing. I'm pretty sure that's getting some awards buzz, at least for the technical categories.

u/Honoianln (replying to u/Daemsonirdis)

If the Academy took horror movies more seriously, Adler would have his fourth Oscar by now. But they never do.

u/Delhorno_espernaso

How does this man have time for everything? He's writing DCU movies, producing for Midas, Game of Thrones is in production, and now he's writing Frankenstein? Does he sleep?

u/Ryaunreidy

The Thing was easily one of the best horror movies of the decade. If Frankenstein is even half as good, we're in for a treat.

Netflix DC deal is real.

Multiple shows confirmed:

Constantine (mystical/horror shit, setting up Justice League Dark)

Penguin (Gotham crime drama, ties into Batman Pt. 3)

Justice Society of America

Elseworlds

Phase 3 is going MULTIVERSAL. They're doing Crisis on Infinite Earths.

Adler allegedly NOT doing Darkseid as the main villain.

Too similar to Thanos.

They don't want comparisons.

Justice League 2 - December 2020

Justice League 3 & 4 - Both will be Crisis on Infinite Earths

Anonymous 09/02/16(Thu)14:25:33 No.78945687

Alright, here's more.

Batman Beyond movie in development

Supergirl solo movie.

Apparently Lobo is in it (2020 or 2021)

A Nightwing movie being discussed Batgirl and even Batman Beyond too. Adler has a boner for all Batman-related stuff.

He is definitely trying to build up his girlfriend using the DCU.

Expect more Harley Quinn.

Adler is not some saint.

Legion of Doom will be the main villains in JL2 They will build up multiple Supermen, Wonder Women, and Batmen and more through Elseworlds

The third Flash movie is being talked about like it's a big thing

Anonymous 09/02/16(Thu)14:53:22 No.78946357 This thread is either the LARP of the century or the biggest leak in superhero movie history. Either way, I'm saving this.

Anonymous 09/02/16(Thu)14:55:01 No.78946401 OP is full of shit. Mods, ban this LARPing fucker.

78946401 Cope. Some of this lines up with stuff we already know. OP might be legit.

Anonymous 09/02/16(Thu)14:58:33 No.78946491 If even HALF of this is real, DC is going to destroy Marvel. Crisis on Infinite Earths is the nuclear option.

"Alright, who is the leak?" I asked as I paced around my office at DC Studios.

Dave was sitting on the couch, scrolling through his phone and reading the leak posted on 4chan. "He got like sixty percent right," Dave said, looking up at me.

"I'm pretty sure the leak is from Netflix," he continued. "The series stuff, at least."

"The series, sure, maybe," I said, still pacing. "But he got some details right as well details that weren't even finalized yet. Hell, details that I never told anyone."

Dave leaned back. "But we aren't doing Crisis."

"Well, I considered it for a while, remember?" I said, rubbing my face. "Like last week I had a discussion with Sarah and Elijah about it. We talked about whether it was even feasible and if that was a good direction."

I stopped pacing and looked at Dave. "Some of these are just my musings. Ideas I've thrown around in meetings."

"Like, who is this guy? I'm pretty sure I had everything locked down."

Dave shrugged. "Well, apparently not."

I continued pacing. "This is another headache we have to deal with."

And it was.

Justice League filming had to be delayed by one or two weeks because Henry and Alexandra got sick on the third day of shooting. There were also some issues with Green Lantern's editing that needed my attention.

And now this.

I had a track record of no leaks. That was my thing. And now someone was spilling all this on fucking 4chan.

Dave watched me for a moment, then said, "I think it's inevitable. Before, you could manage no leaks. But we are way bigger now. More people involved, more moving parts. Something was bound to slip."

I sighed. "I guess you're right. But I still want to plug this leak. I'm pretty sure I can narrow it down to twenty people."

I muttered to myself, thinking out loud. "He even got Supergirl right; that would actually narrow it down to ten."

Dave nodded slowly. "Could be someone who quit or was let go."

"I don't know," I said, shaking my head. "Just find this guy. Everyone's basically taking this as gospel now, and I'm sure when we announce the shows they'll all come back to this thread and treat it like prophecy."

Dave stood up. "Don't worry about it. I'll handle it. You focus on Justice League and writing."

"Fine," I said. "I have a meeting with Brad later. I'll see you tomorrow."

I walked out of Dave's office, my mind all over the place.

There was just too much happening at the same time.

I guess I had to approach each one at a time.
