‘Wonder Woman 2’ Gets a Release Date
Late last night, the sequel for the incredibly successful Wonder Woman finally got a release date.
Warner Bros. decided to move the movie from its lucrative June release date and decided that Wonder Woman 2 will hit theatres December 13, 2019!
Now, why did WB decide not to give this announcement (that everyone was waiting for) during SDCC? It might be due to the fact that no one but Gat Gadot is officially confirmed yet.
It seems like a deal with WW director Patty Jenkins is still developing and that made Warner Bros. decide to just book that release date. Chris Pine is not confirmed to return either.
Wonder Woman 2 would be competing for that box office money against Frozen 2, which comes out during Thanksgiving 2019. Disney also has two other dates booked for live-action fairytales around the same time (November 8 and December 20). In addition, Wicked is set to come out December 20 as well.

Warner Bros. Announce Their Slate of DC Films

‘Shazam!’ Will Start Production Early 2018
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Shazam! will be the next DCEU movie to film.
It is not confirmed if Dwayne Johnson will be in the movie as Shazam!‘s villain, Black Adam. It looks like the character is being saved for its own spinoff.
Shazam! is the story of a kid that can transform himself into a costumed adult with superhuman powers by speaking the words “SHAZAM!”
The movie will be directed by David F. Sandberg (Lights Out) and Peter Safran (Aquaman‘s producer) is in negotiations to produce.
Sandberg took a DECU Reddit to talk about the film: “To keep it general and not go into script details I’d say the core thing that’s appealing to me is the wish fulfillment. What kid doesn’t want to be Superman? This is a kid that basically gets to become Superman.”
Shazam! is predicted to hit theatres in 2019.
Superman’s ‘Justice League’ Costume Looks More Colorful
A Hot Toys action figure of our favorite superhero was spotted at Comic-Con.
Superman has returned (in action figure form) and there is no sign of a black costume… if anything, the costume just seems to feature brighter colors.
There is a chance that Warner Bros could be keeping his dark return as a secret. We’ll have to wait and see.
For now, check out the pictures (which also feature the rest of the Justice League):
