DC project you would love to see developed (But problably never happening)

[Hollis Mason]

I would love an Arkham Asylum show about all Batman villains and having Batsy as some kind of villain itself. Kinda like a presence you never fully see.

Also, would love a Kingdom Come adaptation directed by George Miller.

 

[brandeezy89]

A Katana film set in Japan with Japanese as the main language

 

[Willi Berg]

I really want a Legion of Super-Heroes movie and I still have hope that happens one day.

I would like to see a Final Crisis movie. Although it might be better as a TV series/mini-series (and include all the different story offshoots.)

Would be cool to see a live-action Cassie Sandsmark.

I really would like to see a true 3D movie made - like a Superman or Justice League.

These guys- Lords of the Long Box, who correctly reported about Greg Berlanti's Green Lantern series on HBO Max back in August, are saying Kingdom Come is in development:


They are also saying there are rumblings of an Arkham Asylum R-rated series featuring Man-Bat (and no Batman) for HBO Max.

 

[Captain Tired]

I'd like a dramedy film about Catman that's inspired by Brad Meltzer's depiction of him as being a fat, self-pitying has-been who's trying to rediscover a sense of purpose and once again become an intimidating adversary for the likes of Batman and co. And I'd like Nicolas Cage to play him.

Hollywood, make it happen.

Oh WOW. Man, I never thought we’d ever see a Kingdom Come series.

But if they do it, it needs to be HBO. As good as Routh looks in the KC costume, CW doesn’t have the budget or the collective talent to do that story justice.

It would be cool. I don't know a lot about those guys (Lords of the Long Box) but they might have a few different sources so nothing is certain yet.

 

[AcidRain]

A Green Arrow / Black Canary film would be my choice. I think WB could be sitting on a great opportunity here. A male / female crime-fighting duo that is not super-powered, and that has a rich history in comics. Could be great ...

 

[Flash525]

A film that specifically revolves around the Flash and Green Lantern.

 

[chintai80]

- a retro batman set in the 1930s-40s where he fights the likes of dr. hugo strange and the monk. all filmed in black and white.
- an animal man show or movie.
- a doctor thirteen show

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

A really good standalone Catwoman heist film and also a adaptation of Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth.

 

[Deck Rickard]

• A Phantom Stranger TV series where he helps/haunts both superheroes and normal people
• A Spectre TV series
• A Hellraiser TV series that isn't cheap and features more than one good actor (Matt Ryan was great but the rest of that show sucked)

*House of Mystery: Tales from Nowhere (Horror Anthology Hosted and Sometimes starring Cain)

*House of Secrets: Tales from Somewhere (Mystery and Fantasy Anthology Hosted and sometimes starring Abel)

*Deadman (done with an R-Rating like Joker): Think 2017's "A Ghost Story" meshed with Lynch's "Lost Highway".
Biography per Wikipedia:

Deadman is a ghost, formerly a circus trapeze artist named Boston Brand who performed under the name Deadman, a stage persona including a red costume and white corpse makeup. When Brand is murdered during a trapeze performance by a mysterious assailant known only as the Hook, his spirit is given the power to possess any living being by a Hindu god named "Rama Kushna," in order to search for his murderer and obtain justice. It is established in Green Arrow Vol. 4, #4, that Deadman believes Rama is the supreme being of the universe.[1]

At the end of the Neal Adams story line, Deadman seems to discover the truth behind his murder and the ultimate fate of Hook, who killed Deadman as part of an initiation into a society of contract killers who then kill him to silence him. However, the real Hook is one among many one-handed men who work for an organization known as "The Scavengers." This group steals advanced technology for a profit. Fighting the Scavengers also led to Deadman gaining an artificial body for some time, thanks to the influence of the Forever People. This group had rented rooms from Trixie Magruder, an old circus companion of Deadman

Tragedy, the supernatural, hope, despair, and a bit of a whimsical fantastical journey bordering on the known and unknown I think would be a different kind of comic book movie.

Deadman would be moreso a bodyless watcher for most of the movie. A travelling circus on earth and the seedy locals therein would be front and center. For adaptation purposes perhaps the Scavengers could be directly linked to Nana Parbat (Hidden City in Himalayas maintained by Rama where evil people dwell) as part of the origin for Deadman.

Strange Adventures looks like sort of a precursor to Kingdom Come, merging the heroes of the DC Universe with regular people.

Always want to see The Spectre, and he's rumored to be showing up in Crisis, so we may not have to wait that long.

 

[Flash525]

You know, it's probably well beyond anything that's possibly, and I'm not sure whether there's a comic on it, but I've seen some art work (I think on Instagram and DeviantArt) where we've had our heroes, but from a medieval era. That would surely be an interesting take on the characters?

Bruce Wayne/Batman would quite literally be a knight, and I suppose an inventor.
Wonder Woman could still be everything she is now.
Superman could also be everything he is now, but less latex and more metal work?; maybe something resembling what Jor-El wore in MoS? Wouldn't hurt to de-power him ever so slightly mind you..
The Flash could have his powers, perhaps without the time travel; maybe wearing some friction resistant fabric (a gift from Bruce Wayne?)
Hawkgirl could be from a lost tribe of warriors; similar to Wonder Woman
Aquaman also as Hawkgirl and Wonder Woman; lost tribe, but ocean dweller.
Maybe a Green Lantern to throw in a cosmic role?

I think with HBO Max developing a GL series with Greg Berlanti, I think we can kiss any chance of further development on a film reboot.

I wish we could have both.

If the series focuses on Kyle Rayner as rumoured then there can be plenty more story to tell.

That could be fun. There was a WW comic "Ends of the Earth" that had her in the Medieval period with Beowulf:

And DC had a toyline/one-shot comic set in the "Primal Age":

 

[The Endless]

Does Vertigo count?

Because I'd kill for top quality Transmet or 100 Bullets series'.

 

[SupermanFan]

Kingdom Come directed Zack Snyder.

I’m not a huge Snyder fan, but he made a great CBM in Watchmen & I enjoyed 300 (I also love MOS). I feel like directly adapting graphic novels is where his strengths are. He should have done an adaptation of the Dark Knight Returns & left solo Superman to someone else after MOS imo. But I don’t think given how much stuff has been used in live action from TDKR that he could do that now. Kingdom Come however, as a big budget Elseworlds, could have been phenomenal.

I would love to see WW taking on some epic beasts.

I really want a John/Hal movie with Hal being a key supporting role. Ideally, I want Sterling K. Brown for John. And there’s more than one actor that can fit the Hal role (and be cheaper than Tom Cruise).

 

[Lobo]

An Etrigan movie. I love Arthurian lore and Etrigan is just such a cool character.

A Shadowoact film or series

And on a lighter note. A cartoon superhero series for Captain Carrot and the Amazing Zoo crew

 

[Kirk Langstrom]

House of Mystery anthology tv series, with Cain the caretaker as host, pleez.

I would be bummed if the GL movie doesn't go ahead anymore. I hope they can co-exist.
