Warner Bros. dates DC Comics movies for Valentine's Day and Summer 2020

July 17, 2017

Earlier today we learned that Warner Bros. is planning to announce the release date of Wonder Woman 2 at Comic-Con, and just now they set two release dates for DC Comics movies in 2020.

The first will be released on February 14, 2020... aka Valentine's Day. The second DC Comics movie in 2020 will be released in the summer on June 5, 2020.

It's anyone's guess as to what these movies might be. Perhaps we'll have a better idea this weekend at the Warner Bros./DC Comics panel at Comic-Con. Let me know which movies you think would be a good fit for these release dates in the comments below.

That February date really only has two choices. Batgirl or GCS.
1. BatmanNewsChris
  July 17, 2017
  Yeah I'm thinking GCS for Valentine's Day. I can see the playful marketing around it already.

    July 17, 2017
    Exactly especially because the first part of the film will probably follow Harley and Joker post SS
    1. Jcool
      July 17, 2017
      Not sure you make GCS and make half of it Harley and Joker.
      1. ken
        July 17, 2017
        Make no mistake GCS will be Harley centric, remember those Harley Quinn spin off movie rumors in May 2016 ?that's the same movie we're getting just a bit re-packaged.

      The Suicide Squad 2 report last week actually said Harley will be back for that one...
      1. ken
        July 17, 2017
        That's puzzle me 🤔🤔 I just don't see SS2 being before GCS
      2. Josh D.
        July 17, 2017
        I'd like to see Harley and Joker in The Batman in 2019, and then that lead into GCS.
      3. Jcool
        July 17, 2017
        what report was that?
      4. Josh D.
        July 17, 2017
        It was in the Deadline report Chris linked to... "sources said the studio is focused on Collet-Serra to take the reins of a franchise that has Will Smith and Margot Robbie back in the ensemble."

    Didn't you say this a love story?
    Right now batgirl is hold that guy up like a F$&@ing ka-bob......
    Wait, wait..I'm mistaken here
2. KelVintage1
  July 17, 2017
  Ugh awful choices really. GCS will be embarrassing because of the over-the-top Harley Quinn. At least that talentless hack Ayer isn't directing.
  1. Cobi Wegner
    July 18, 2017
    Ayer is directing GCS, if that is still even a thing
StarTheory
July 17, 2017
The original slate for 2020 was Green Lantern and Cyborg so I really hope we still get Green Lantern for 2020.
1. OGmacrazy
  July 17, 2017
  Well, with all those news about Goyer's involvement with it, I wouldn't mind they release it a year later so someone can actually write a solid script around the story he comes up with.
  1. StarTheory
    July 17, 2017
    Oh right, I forgot that it's Goyer behind it.
ken
July 17, 2017
Gotham City Sirens in Feb and Wonder Woman 2 in June.
ken
July 17, 2017
I don't think we will a full on 10 movie slate until the end of the year but we might definitely have some confirmed dates for 2 or 3 movies Batman, Wonder Woman 2 and maybe GCS.

I guess Flash, and GL will be delayed to 2021? it likely batman family dominated 2019
Josh D.
July 17, 2017
February is Flash (Deadpool did very well that weekend in 2016). June is Wonder Woman.
I'm Batman Man 39

July 17, 2017
It has to be The Flash and Wonder Woman 2 or Sirens of Gotham and Wonder Woman 2
1. Ned Ryerson
  July 17, 2017
  We've heard zip about flash for months now. I'd like to see it made as soon as possible but all the talk as been on Gotham city sirens, suicide squad 2, the Batman, and Wonder Woman 2. Even Shazam has had a lot more positive mentions than Flash.
  1. Diego!
    July 17, 2017
    Yes. And I've read that Shazam begins production in February 2018... Ezra must be really busy now ☹
greenarrowfan1
July 17, 2017
I hoping there will be one more added to 2020 in November and 3 in 2019......
1. Josh D.
  July 17, 2017
  I think we get Suicide Squad 2, Shazam! and The Batman in 2019... and then Flash, Wonder Woman 2 and Gotham City Sirens in 2020.
2. Trapdoor
  July 18, 2017
  There are already 4 DC films in 2020 (with these two added) & there is no way they will have 6 films out in 2019 (or did you mean 1 more added & the 3 they already have in 2019?).
  1. greenarrowfan1
    July 18, 2017
    Yes i mean one added to 2020 and 3 in 2019.
mr nobody
July 17, 2017
I think we'll be disappointed on how much new info they'll release. I think we're only getting a JL trailer and and an Aquaman teaser. Don't think we will get a full movie slate
ken
July 17, 2017
Let's face it he will anyway, although I would love for Batgirl to cameo or be introduced a la Wonder Woman in BvS
1. ken
  July 17, 2017
  Yeah I would be okay with that especially if the Batman comes out in 2019.
  But I still want a bunch of cameo in GCS, if any movie needs cameo and Easter egg that's the one. my ideal pitch for that movie would be The Sirens wrecking havoc in Gotham and clashing with several key characters from the Gotham City lore aka Bat Family all that while hunted down by Deadshoot.
  1. mr nobody
    July 17, 2017
    Agreed. I think GCS is a good platform to introduce and hint a lot of things in the universe, there should be plenty of easter eggs. Some cameos would be really cool too.
  2. mr nobody
    July 17, 2017
    that's an easter egg, not a cameo.
    1. mr nobody
      July 17, 2017
      lol what? you can't have easter eggs in a movie without script then. This is all speculation. But you said that cameos will be objects and that makes no sense. you probably meant that there wont be cameos, only easter eggs
  3. greenarrowfan1
    July 17, 2017
    maybe something like bird of prey could show up to deal with GCS but they have a common enemy and work together?

February - Shazam. June - Batman.
1. Supporter
  July 17, 2017
  Shazam is still set for 2019, right?
  1. Trapdoor
    July 18, 2017
    April 2019 - At the moment.
greenarrowfan1
July 17, 2017
so Justice League 2 be like 2021? I think people want to see a solo flash film early than later. If they can't do a true solo flash movie should they do a Flashpoint movie?
Jcool
July 17, 2017
"Free twitter scoop" aka wasn't vetted enough for The Wrap.
Jay Pay

The Batman and Wonder Woman 2.
Orlando Furioso
July 17, 2017
Man of Steel 2 featuring Brainiac will be welcome thank you very much, please.
1. Jay Pay
  July 17, 2017
  Too good to be true.
2. KelVintage1

  WE DESERVE MAN OF STEEL 2! ARE YOU LISTENING WB? Get your act together for God's sake.
residentgrigo

So, the Cyborg and GL project may move down even further.

  For fuck's sake WB.....
3. Trapdoor
  July 18, 2017
  What makes you think they will be pushed back from 2020?
  1. residentgrigo
    July 18, 2017
    You can only push so many films though production at once and WB ain´t just a DC studio. Something will have to give unless the in active development GL takes one of the 2 spots.
residentgrigo
July 17, 2017
An uncredited cameo, as with SS, to not mess with any contract crap.
SBHM
July 17, 2017
WW 2 for that Valentine's Day spot.
diogo02000
July 17, 2017
Could be GCS and Wonder Woman 2. But i could be wrong. Anyway, for sure they will release the schedule of the next movies at SDCC.
Ned Ryerson
July 17, 2017
It's all subjective but I personally find it both upsetting and kind of ridiculous to think we could see a Shazam and Bat girl movie filmed and released before a Flash, Green Lantern Corp, and Man of Steel 2 film.
1. Trapdoor
  July 18, 2017
  Shazam has been set for April 2019 for quite a while,
Captain DC
July 17, 2017
2020?! That's WAY too far away. I'm gonna need at least four DC movies released in 2019, to make up for 2018! LOL With so many DC movies getting stalled in pre-production, because of lack of directors or good final scripts, 2020 release dates (that are subject and very likely to change) feel a bit hollow, right now. I'm hoping for some DC casting news.
1. Trapdoor
  July 18, 2017
  DC has 3 in 2019, so far.
EverGreen
July 17, 2017
At this point I'm convinced the two 2019 movies left are The Batman (June 14) and SS sequel (November), so that rules both out, considering the plans of both to start shooting next year.
BTW what happened to Cyborg and GL Corps?
1. Trapdoor
  July 18, 2017
  Stil 2020, at the moment.

  Shazam has been dated at April 2019 for quite a while.
SecretAvenger
July 17, 2017
Valentine's Day will definitely be Gotham City Sirens. No doubt. Wonder Woman will probably be the June since the first one came out that same month. I hope they announce more release dates though.
Bruce Wayne
July 17, 2017
Hopefully, it's Flash and Green Lantern.
1. Trapdoor
  July 18, 2017
  Flash: Only if they have pulled a miracle out of their arse.
  Green Lantern Corps: Only if it has been brought forward a year.
  1. Bruce Wayne
    July 18, 2017
    Why do you say that?
    1. Trapdoor
      July 18, 2017
      Very little has been heard about Flash, since the loss of its second director & "Barry's Dad". We can hope it is as they have been working away at it, but I'm not holding my breath.

WB needs to consolidate....
No cyborg movie, just make a live action teen titans
Gotham city sirens? No, make batgirl movie have lady villains in it. Harley, ivy, and cat woman against Barbara....batman cameos
Batman movie have plentiful amount of villains
MOS 2 vs brainiac
GL movie sets up JL2
Suicide squad 2 is a about the squad on another mission with death stroke but a subplot of batman so we can finally see live action batman vs death stroke....
1. mr nobody
  July 18, 2017
  if only they used common sense...
  1. Batpod4L
    July 18, 2017
    Right?!? WB killed it with WW now watch them "Sony" the upcoming movies i.e. Silver and black/venom that would not fit in Spider-Man homecoming lol
    1. mr nobody
      July 18, 2017
      Yeah, nothing makes sense. They are making the movies they can, not the ones they want. Like, how hard can it be to do a Flash movie, seriously. But no, we gotta get a Black Adam movie and GCS
      1. Batpod4L
        July 19, 2017
        It's because they figure the Dwayne the rock Johnson will sell any movie WB puts in...so instant "cash" job on their minds...
2. AKA Newtopia Rising
  July 18, 2017
  Agreed except for the titans movie
  You can't demote Cyborg like that in the new universe, not the way it's set up
  1. Bat-Mite
    July 18, 2017
    Cyborg could possibly join the Titans if he sees them as a better fit for him, which wouldn't feel like he's getting snubbed
    1. StarTheory
      July 18, 2017
      And they can also redeem Martian Manhunter and put him at his rightful place.
      1. Mark
        July 18, 2017
        I think MM is hurt to some extent by the fact that he missed the Bronze Age (he went back to Mars c. 1970 and didn't return to regular comics until shortly before Crisis), so he's a lesser entity to those of us in Zack Snyder's age bracket, and my cohorts are the ones making these decisions. I know when I was growing up he was "an old character who wasn't around anymore."
      2. Bat-Mite
        July 18, 2017
        If only 😭
  2. Ezee23
    July 18, 2017
    Completely agreed. Also, imagine the uproar when the only Justice League member to not get a solo is the black guy. WB aren't that crazy. Cyborg getting a solo, before the Justice league sequel, is a near certainty.
    1. Batpod4L
      July 18, 2017
      Well I wouldn't say he is getting snubbed.....a teen titans movie with cyborg as the main focus.... cbm are notorious for putting emphasis on one member of the group
      Batman all the time
      Wolverine
      Iron man
      All members of the group, quite possible the main attraction...
      1. Mark
        July 18, 2017
        Cyborg isn't even a member of the Titans in the comics anymore (and he wasn't in the recent Judas Contract movie, either). Plus, in any Titans movie the main character is probably going to be Nightwing.... who is getting his own movie.
        Although, the original schedule, at least the way most of us interpreted it, had Cyborg not getting his solo film until after JL2, next-to-last in that list before GLC.
        But I don't see them consolidating movies; they've got the money to make lots of them and they're willing to push the envelope with some of it (especially since WW was such a hit with the >25yo and female quadrants).
      2. Batpod4L
        July 19, 2017
        Well, I agree they won't consolidate but I'm sticking to my guns on they need to; and we can differ of what and who needs to be moved....that's fine
        Yet, WB is historically upsetting with batman and robin, green lantern, and bvs/SS movies....
        WW was good, yes. Cool you can breath a little WB.....now it's like mass produce movies cause they are like Marvel now....
        How about WB chills out and redeems the current properties with a MOS2, batman solo, and SS with a director loves the material and who gets to have his input not the studios....take your chances with flash, Batgirl but don't get too crazy with GCS, Shazam etc

WB is still showing they don't have a clue of how to build a cinematic universe.
God I wish Disney bought DC comics.
1. Halberdier17
  July 18, 2017
  Hell no look at Marvel's Comic division under Disney.
  I don't want that to happen to DC Comics it would be worse than the New 52.
  Marvel Comics has been terrible since Disney purchased them; they could easily fix it but Marvel doesn't want to fix it.
  Don't say "They're leading in sales so it is fine" Marvel is releasing way more books then DC but still has the same market share so they aren't making money. Diamond only keeps track of the numbers sold to retailers but those retailers have stacks of Marvel Comics that they can't sell. Marvel also ships more than the actual stores order so they inflate there numbers so it looks like they sold more.
mr nobody
July 18, 2017
Thinking about it, this means nothing. 2020 is so far away and they've announced dates before and they keep changing so by then these dates probably won't be the same
1. Ezee23
  July 18, 2017
  2020 is three years away, not all that far away. To be fair, the closer dates are usually the ones that stick if there's no pre-production problems.
  1. mr nobody
    July 18, 2017
    exactly. They've come up with dates before and they change them so if anything it means they wanna release 2 movies that year. Dates will change most likely. Especially if they are movies like The Flash lol
