Now that Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has come and gone, the DC Extended Universe is in full swing. So, it's time to take a look at all of the DC superhero movies that will be released over the next few years. And trust us, there are a ton of them on the way, and we expect more details will be announced as we go forward.
August 5th, 2016 - Suicide Squad
The Suicide Squad movie boasts an impressive all-star cast. Jared Leto is playing the Joker. Then we have Adam Beach as Slipknot, Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, Karen Fukuhara as Katana, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flagg, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Will Smith as Deadshot, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc, and Jay Hernandez as El Diablo. There are loads of other supervillains making their way into this one, too. It's a little crazy.

June 2nd, 2017 - Wonder Woman
The fact that we have yet to see a Wonder Woman solo movie is almost beyond belief. We don't have time to get into the rampant short-sightedness that is keeping women from taking marquee roles in superhero movies at the moment but just know that Gal Gadot does some serious Amazonian ass-kicking in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and then we get her solo movie on June 2nd, 2017. The movie was moved up a couple of weeks from its original release date on June 23, 2017.

March 23rd, 2018 - The Flash
Debuting to some more than respectable numbers, The Flash TV series is a definite fan-favorite.

July 27th, 2018 - Aquaman
Warner Bros. confirmed what everyone on the planet already knew: Jason Momoa is Aquaman. There's no doubt that they've been taking Aquaman very seriously.
Amber Heard will also appear as Queen Mera.

October 5th, 2018 - Batman Solo Movie? (Unconfirmed)
Warner Bros. promised that their superhero schedule didn't include Batman or Superman solo films, but it didn't rule out the possibility of them down the line. Well, it looks like "down the line" might mean 2018. Ben Affleck will direct and star in a solo Batman movie. He will also co-write the screenplay with comics scribe Geoff Johns. According to THR, Affleck has already finished the first draft of the script.
The latest unconfirmed details on this one indicate that it might be an adaptation of the Under the Red Hood story. Under the Red Hood is the story of how the second Robin, Jason Todd, returned from the dead after his murder at the hands of the Joker. Todd becomes the brutal vigilante known as the Red Hood, and it's up to Batman and Nightwing to take him down.

April 5th, 2019 - Shazam
Shazam has both a writer (Darren Lemke, of Turbo fame) and a star (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as the villainous Black Adam) announced. If we end up getting to see Henry Cavill's Superman fight Dwayne Johnson's Black Adam, it's tough to imagine anyone would complain.

November 1st, 2019 - Untitled DC Film
Warner Bros. has set a date for another untitled DC film for November 1st, 2019, according to THR. No information was given as to the story or what characters will be featured in the film.

April 3rd, 2020 - Cyborg
And this one is the biggest surprise of them all. Ray Fisher will make his first appearance as Vic Stone/Cyborg in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and will clearly have a crucial role to play in both Justice League films if they're grooming him for a solo film.

June 19th, 2020 - Green Lantern Corps
Fairly or unfairly, Green Lantern has the most working against him. The 2011 film failed to kickstart the DC Universe as planned, and received a lukewarm (at best) critical and box-office reception. There are, of course, ways around this.
One way is to simply not make Hal Jordan the central Green Lantern of the movie. It was revealed at SDCC 2015 that the Green Lantern movie is now called Green Lantern Corps, and this one may focus on as many as three Green Lanterns, likely with John Stewart as the main Green Lantern of Sector 2814. Tyrese Gibson might be wearing that particular ring.
