Ok DC want their own universe but why can't they have these shows as part as that the characters would have been already established
 
it's not going to happen, already confirmed

i want the Arrow/Flash universe to continue to grow without being a part of the DCCU. they can do their own thing

i want to see Hal Jordan, Hawkman and Martian Manhunter joining the Arrow/Flash universe

that'd make THIS our Arrow/Flash JL

The Flash
Arrow
Black Canary
Green Lantern
Martian Manhunter
Hawkman
The Atom
Firestorm
 
but the HCU is confirmed

after much clamoring from Hal superfan regwec, the Hal Cinematic Universe is finally on the way in all its glory.
 
Flash is part of the universe...oh you mean the TV shows then no.
 
We already know they're separate universes. We also know that WB/DC are acknowledging the two as a multiverse.

The real question is whether we'll see any crossover between the two down the line. Like in a Flashpoint or Crisis film. Both of which have been teased in the CW Flash series.

i think arrow could have easily been included into the universe, even if the actor isn't the best actor around.

the flash is a different story. i think the flash situation is a bit like the chicken or the egg. no flash tv show to show just well the flash could work in live action, you probably don't get ezra flash, but now with ezra flash, they probably wish they hadn't made a tv show and made movies instead.
 
If anything should be canon, its Constantine.

No.

Too many character inconsistencies. Arrow has already shown Ra's al Ghul, multiple members of the Suicide Squad, the Flash (who's already been cast). Besides, Arrow is already set for 6 seasons. They're doing their own thing, let it be.

Close thread, not happening.
 
Too late for it to happen, even if the writers/producers hadn't confirmed they weren't connected, Miller's been cast as DCCU Flash and there'd be huge story inconsistencies between the two shows and MOS, any opportunity to connect them disappeared when the Flash's pilot was finished.
 
I personally wouldn't mind, but it ain't gonna happen so ... meh.

According to Geoff Johns, DC Entertainment is going the separate Universe route. That is because it is too complicated to coordianate the different franchises into one cohesive universe. You have the Television shows, which the producers have to prepare for up to 26 episodes per season (and bear the risk of cancellation) while the film franchises operate at a much slower pace (maybe one film every two years - that's if the preceding doesn't flop). You also have the contractual obligations amongst the actors, directors, writers and producers to deal with as well. Sure, one could say that Marvel is doing it, but it's not as easy or as satisfying as people expected. Outside of maybe Angent Colson, and one time guest appearances from Nick Fury and Lady Sif, you do not see interaction between the actors from the film franchises on the TV show or vice verse.

Yeah. Even if the show doesn't make it, I hope that they get Matt Ryan to play him in JL Dark (if that movie ever happens). He IS Constantine.
 
I love that show and hope it makes it to a second season.
 
I'm going to say no because we've already gone with the after-the-fact route before and it doesn't work so well. These were created with the idea of them being separate and changing that now is asking for trouble.
 
No, they shouldn't be part of the same universe. Let the TV shows do their own thing and vice versa.
