Speaking of Guillermo del Toro let’s just say he is working on a movie that has the potential to be the greatest movie ever committed to film. Or bytes. I hear that his next epic, PACIFIC RIM ( a Japanese Porno) is testing so well that Warner Brothers wants to offer him everything they have. Fortunately he passed on the feature version of V and the sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory but he does want to do his own version of the Avengers, just supernaturally. Called HEAVEN SENT he is combining all the magical beings from DC Comics in one epic adventure. Deadman, The Spectre, Swamp Thing, Constantine Hellblazer, Phantom Stranger, Zatanna, Zatara, and Sargon as well as Etrigan the Demon will team up to no doubt save us from the Stay Puft Marshmallow man. Now this one is a ways away, but Warner’s lawyers have been working every night trying to clear the rights to all these characters. I am excited. Imagine a giant inflatable Spectre floating over San Diego ComiCon like we had with the SKY CAPTAIN Robot? Or endless screenings of the film like with SCOTT PILGRIM? Or maybe a building converted into a giant ad like with COWBOYS AND ALIENS? HEAVEN SENT is certain to RULE ComicCon in 2020! Que Bueno!

Whoever they cast as Chas needs to be better than that boring guy from the TV show. He was f***ing awful. And if they use Zed, they need to find an actress who can do more than give sad puppy dog eyes every five minutes.

I hope they nail the specifics down soon so that this could get its own sub forum.



To WB:

Give Liman the source material and couple of consultants and let the man do his thing.

That's way too much sense for the direction the DCEU has been in so far. I don't think WB understands what it means to let a director do their own thing.

 

[Juan1193]

When do we get a sub forum? Can't wait to discuss the characters individually!!

What chances does Black Orchid have of making the team line-up? Alba Garcia was pretty cool

 

[Jonwo]

I think the team was going to be Constantine, Zatanna, Swamp Thing, Deadman, Etrigan, Spectre and Phantom Stranger when it was being developed by Del Toro.

Bummer. Some of those characters weren't even prominent in the comic and I was hoping Dark Universe would follow the Squad's example and use more female and minority characters. But I guess it'll be like JL and have a token woman and a token minority.

Spectre would be cool though, not going to lie.

Man..........what?

 

[whenforeverisnt]

Doug Liman is the best director the DCEU has so far. I'm excited. And how about Damian Lewis for John Constantine?
(even though it's going to be Collin Farrel)

 

[Rowsdower!]

I'd be down with Lewis but goddamnit, he should have been Lex Luthor.

Omg that would have been great.

 

[Jonwo]

I think Damian Lewis would make a better Niles Caulder if they ever did a Doom Patrol movie.

 

[Black Narcissus]

So after Joe M. followed both Johns and Snyder on twitter, I have no doubt about Eiza Gonzales being Zatanna.

 

[Boom]

Still wish they gave us an idea as to when this comes out. We have no clue when to expect any news for this thing.

I think Lewis is the obvious choice for Jason Blood.

I'd be down with Lewis but goddamnit, he should have been Lex Luthor.

We'll have to settle for him being Luthor adjacent on Billions.

Man..........what?

Team movies tend to have a limit of one woman and one racial minority, sometimes they combine the two. With the exception being the Suicide Squad. I was hoping DC would go against that trend and add another woman to the team, like in the comics (Madame Xanadu, Black Orchid, Amethyst). But I guess not...

 

[Boom]

No sense in stressing about it yet when we don't even have a finalized roster of characters.

Madame Xanadu could very well be in it. We don't know.

 

[Paradox1]

Couldnt they bring Raven and Dr. fate into this squad?

I know. JL only has one woman, it wouldn't hurt to get 2 in JLD.

Dr. Fate, sure. I think they would save Raven for the Titans.

You know, I follow Zack on Twitter.

I'm not saying I've been cast as Hal Jordan. But I'm not saying that I haven't been.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Omg that would have been great.

Yeah. And just to rub salt in the wound, he had a shaved head right around the time MOS came out and looked great. Goddamnit. F*** Snyder, Terrio and Eisenberg for ruining the greatest comic book villain of all time (yes, I like Luthor even more than the Joker).

 

[Juan1193]

You know, I follow Zack on Twitter.

I'm not saying I've been cast as Hal Jordan. But I'm not saying that I haven't been.

But did he follow back? That's the difference lol They actually followed Eiza Gonzalez back

I know. JL only has one woman, it wouldn't hurt to get 2 in JLD.

Madame Xanadu put the team together in the comics, so using her makes sense. I'm hoping they go for Black Orchid. The animated movie is using her so why can't the DCEU. Give me Alba Garcia!

 

[Rorschach2012]

Jesus the team is fine as is. No need for diversity when you've got ****ing a plant creature, a dead guy, a demon and a powerful female magician

Stop complaining
