Today James Gunn announced the first phase of the DCU. Some interesting projects here like THE AUTHORITY. I always enjoyed that comic book adaptation of the Justice League. Comparisons between the two groups are inevitable. I am disappointed not to see WW3 on the list. Gal Gadot is such a fabulous Wonder Woman, my favorite DCU character. I would be a loss to put her on the shelf in favor of that series on the Amazons of Themyscira, which could be very cool to see. I hope the story takes place with Gadot in the lead. Here are the rest of the future line-up.
DC movies
Superman: Legacy – written by Gunn, the film will hit theaters on July 11, 2025, and focus on Superman balancing his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing.
The Authority – WildStorm characters will join the DCU as members of The Authority take matters into their own hands to do what they believe is right.
The Brave and the Bold – the DCU will introduce its Batman and Robin in this unusual father-son story inspired by Grant Morrison's comic series.
Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow - this science fiction adventure, which will be based on Tom King's amazing, award-winning recent comics stories, presents a Supergirl viewers are not used to seeing.
Swamp Thing – the film will investigate the dark origins of Swamp Thing.
The Batman – Part II — the film will hit theaters on Oct. 3, 2025.
DC HBO TV series

"Paradise Lost" sounds interesting but could go very wrong in the hands of the wrong writer/director etc.
I hope Young Justice comes back for a fifth season.
I do look forward to James Gunn's take on Superman! Also, I really enjoyed Tom King's Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow so will be interested to see how they translate to a feature.
