WARNER BROS. DC SCHEDULERumors have begun surfacing for Warner Bros. DC Comics movie development slate with NikkiFinke.com stating that the next seven DC Comics films will be released in the span of three years, starting in 2016: "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" (May 2016); "Shazam" (July 2016); "The Sandman" (Christmas 2016); "Justice League" (May 2017); "Wonder Woman" (July 2017); a Flash and Green Lantern team-up (Christmas 2017); and "Man of Steel 2" (May 2018).

If true, it's an ambitious slate to be sure -- but not entirely out of the realm of possibility. Marvel Studios, by contrast, will have released 11 movies in 6 years by the end of 2014. Particularly of note is the absence of both "Metal Men" and "Suicide Squad," which seem to have slipped off the development slate.

In addition to the schedule, Finke reports that Ryan Reynolds will not reprise his role as Green Lantern for the current line-up of films.

THE FLASHA new promo for "The Flash" has popped up online. Not much new here to distinguish it from other promos, though there are some new comments from actor Tom Cavanagh.
