Justice League: 6 Major Changes The DCEU Is Making To Fix Itself

There are some jobs that are so overwhelming you couldn't pay me enough money to do them: soldier; porn theatre janitor; games journalist. Although the big no-no is the one Geoff Johns has recently taken on as Head of DC Films. It's his job to take the perennially disappointing franchise and totally reverse its fortunes, and while doing so put out a fan fire so violent it's destroyed what fragile audience/critic amnesty there was.

That's a painfully mammoth undertaking, but Johns is likely up to the task. He's been CCO of DC Comics since 2010, and even before then was saving troubled comic runs in spectacular fashion (what he did with Green Lantern in the mid-naughties is phenomenal), so this isn't totally new ground for him.

So what's his masterplan? Well, speaking to The Wall Street Journal, he laid out some of the big shifts to intrinsic franchise building blocks he's going to make, giving a sense of what we can expect from next year's Justice League in particular. There's still the spectre of studio meddling and multiple edits, but it sounds like this time round the movies may be in a better state when they get to that stage of post-production. Here's the six biggest changes he's going to be making to the DCEU.
