A report popped up at Forbes yesterday which indicated that, aside from the currently in production “Aquaman” film, Warners is holding off on further announcements regarding its DCEU films until “Justice League” launches.
Said report hasn’t been confirmed yet and claims: “The studio wants to see how Wonder Woman performs (so far so good on that front) and how Justice League turns out before they barrel ahead with multiple more films every year. More films will get made, don’t worry, but it makes sense to ease off the gas a little and be certain about the best route ahead.”
Additional filming on “Justice League” gets underway in the UK this month with actor Henry Cavill posting a photo of himself in his Superman boots and tights this week in tribute to the 79th anniversary of the character.
Additionally, both Robin Wright’s General Antiope and Connie Nielsen’s Queen Hippolyta characters from “Wonder Woman” are confirmed to be making appearances in ‘League’. Speaking with The L.A. Times, both actresses and Gal Gadot were asked if we’ll see more of the relationships between the three women in future films. They responded:
Gadot: Of course; the mother and daughter relationship is always a beautiful but complex relationship. I think that there’s a lot more to explore.
Nielsen: And [Wright and I] got to do more in “Justice League” as well. As sisters as well. Kind of badass as well. We can’t say much, but …
Wright: And more of the story, you get some of the history.
The film is said to feature flashbacks to a time when Atlanteans, Amazonians and early humans united to fight off an alien threat. “Justice League” opens in November.
