Nikki Finkie best known for her work on the trades website Deadline has since departed from the website to begin building her very own trade website. Now one of the first exclusives to her site NikkiFinkie.com is none other than Warner Bros post-Batman V Superman plans after 2016!
"Shazam (July 2016), Sandman (Christmas 2016), Justice League (May 2017), Wonder Woman (July 2017), Flash/Green Lantern team-up (Christmas 2017), and Man of Steel 2 (May 2018)."
She goes onto to say that a Suicide Squad and Metal Man movies have "fallen off the table" at Warner Bros. She also adds the reason why Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice switched dates from 2015 to 2016. Also adds Aquaman, Green Lantern and Flash is set to make an appearance:
"There will be cameos of superheroes for future installments. The cameos will include the already known Cyborg and Flash. Green Lantern may be introduced. And Aquaman will be seen in the Justice League movie. Problem is, Warner Bros Pictures was still negotiating with the actors for those cameos and future roles, meaning major contracts for multiple JL/character films to follow. The studio didn’t want to move forward until they had more of this secure so they held off starting production for a few months."She lastly adds that while none of these are "official" we should expect an announcement on the future of the DC Cinematic Universe this July at Comic-Con!
Lastly on that Flash/Green Lantern team-up movie. That was the plan back in 2011 when the script was written for The Flash movie that featured a post credit scene by Green Lantern. As we know the movie never panned out and the team has since moved the character for television starring Grant Gustin. But it was also revealed that Ferris airways most closely associated with Hal Jordan/Green Lantern will be referenced in the upcoming Flash TV Show. Wonder what all that means?
