Predicting DC's 9 Upcoming Superhero Movies Up To 2020

Warner Bros. is finally moving forward with a DC Cinematic Universe, but what will they do with it?

After years of waiting impatiently, DC fans finally got what they've been waiting for when Warner Brothers announced their plans for the burgeoning DC Cinematic Universe, which includes ten upcoming films slated for release between 2016 and 2020. The DCCU began with last year's Man of Steel, and kicks into high gear on March 25, 2016 with Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. What comes next, however, is anyone's guess, as Warner Bros. remained tight-lipped about which films would occupy the newly claimed release dates. All that was confirmed of the upcoming slate was the following tantalising date run-down:
Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice €“ 03/25/16 Untitled DC Film €“ 08/05/16 Untitled DC Film €“ 06/23/17 Untitled DC Film €“ 11/17/17 Untitled DC Film €“ 03/23/18 Untitled DC Film €“ 07/27/18 Untitled DC Film €“ 04/05/19 Untitled DC Film €“ 06/14/19 Untitled DC Film €“ 04/03/20 Untitled DC Film €“ 06/19/20
Luckily for comic book movie fans, the studio has given a few clues as to which characters may hit the big screen first. We already know that Zack Snyder will direct Justice League immediately after Batman V Superman, leaving little doubt that it will arrive before most of the solo DC films, aside from the ones that are released too close to the cross-over's release date of course. After pouring over all of the evidence, using fancy scientific calculations and algorithms, and geeking out for far too long, we've compiled our predictions for the nine untitled DC films to chart a map of how the DCCU will look up to 2020.
