They had some tactics
Earlier this year, Walter Hamada was appointed as the new curator of the DC cinematic universe, and it was he who was to restore order in the superhero camp after the failure of the Justice League. Jeff Jones, Hamada's predecessor in this position, limited himself to the role of a consultant, but a few days ago it became known that Jones was leaving DC Entertainment. He launches his own Mad Ghost Productions banner, which thanks to a new deal with Warner Bros. will allow him to participate in the development of content for film, television and comics as a writer and producer.Wonder Woman unexpectedly earned more than Justice League, which only confirmed the need to revise the WB's plans for superheroes. Hamada, who previously curated The Conjuring franchise, has spent the past several months trying to codify the list of upcoming DC blockbusters. According to insiders, he got a real booth, which needed to be put in order. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hamada spent months studying all the upcoming projects. He rejected some of them, others, on the contrary, supported, giving preference to films about either popular characters or those who have great potential. Aquaman is the only DC comic-book movie to be released this year, and next year, viewers will meet Shazam and meet Wonder Woman again. This, perhaps, limits the list of blockbusters whose future you can be sure of.  As for potential projects, as we reported earlier, WB and DC are going to present two films about the Joker at once: one with Jared Leto in the lead role, the other with Joaquin Phoenix. Director Todd Phillips plans to start filming the latter in the fall, and the budget of the film will be about $ 55 million - a small part of what large studios usually spend on superheroics. It also became known that the shooting of "Flash" will start early next year. The WB management realized that gloom and seriousness do not paint the fastest man on Earth, and therefore John Francis Daly and Jonathan M. Goldstein will try to shoot something in the spirit of Back to the Future. Another potential studio project is a spin-off about Harley Quinn, which is being promoted by Margot Robbie, and the solo album Batgirl, who lost the director but acquired a new screenwriter.  A lot of questions from movie fans and journalists are caused by Batman's solo album. According to the source, Matt Reeves recently presented the first part of a blockbuster script, which will focus on the young Dark Knight. The studio does not comment on this information, but Ben Affleck will most likely be left without a superhero cloak. Insiders argue that Walter Hamada does not intend to collect an author group, as Paramount, Universal and Legendary did."He has a plan and his own vision of the universe", - the source writes. And these plans definitely do not include the appointment of prime ministers in advance, since this approach, according to Hamada, did not have the best effect on the franchise.
