HBO Max will also be the home to spinoff series that branch out from the theatrical comic book movies.
DC Films is also diving head first into the multiverse in order to maintain its DC Extended Universe timeline (Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa’s Aquaman, Ezra Miller’s Flash, etc.) while also developing more standalone-minded projects (think “Joker” and Robert Pattinson’s “The Batman”). To summarize: Robert Pattinson’s Caped Crusader does not exist in the DC Extended Universe, but he does exist in the DC Films multiverse.
“Boiled down, it means that some characters (Wonder Woman as portrayed by Ms. Gadot, for instance) will continue their adventures on Earth 1, while new incarnations (Mr. Pattinson as ‘The Batman’) will populate Earth 2,” The Times continues. “‘The Flash,’ a film set for release in theaters in 2022, will link the two universes and feature two Batmans, with Mr. Affleck returning as one and Michael Keaton returning as the other. Mr. Keaton played Batman in 1989 and 1992.”
The reveal that Warner Bros. “will have two different film sagas involving Batman — played by two different actors — running at the same time” is sure to pique fan interest. Pattinson is behind one of the franchises, while it’s rumored “The Flash” movie will set up the future of the Dark Knight in the DC Extended Universe. Affleck played Bruce Wayne/Batman in two DCEU entries before exiting the role, but his “Flash” appearance has many assuming he’ll be handing over the baton to a new DCEU Batman.

Are there that many of them to matter. This feels more like they want two Batman franchises to milk, because veryone knows who Batman is.Tempy wrote:It's also the exact kind of stuff DC are banking on bringing in the enthusiast market it seems/RedDave2 wrote:This is exactly the kind of BS that puts many people off the comics.

MCU films have a bland house style that almost feels it’s embarrassed about the punch thwack nature of comic books. Also all the jokes are the same after Avengers Assemble and you could literally replace them with a drum beat because the jokes are simply reliant on the same rhythm rather than the content of the joke.
I find the WW84 thing very bizarre. The first batch of reviews sounded like the film was going to be great and then the most recent reviews suggest the film is donkey. It’s like the US election in terms of vote patterns.
