10 Comic Book Movies That Will Literally Never Happen

Shortly after Ray Fisher was cast to play Victor Stone aka Cyborg in Batman v Superman, it was announced that Warner Bros. would be pursuing a Cyborg solo movie as part of their DCEU slate.

In fairness, this always seemed like a bit of a dubious prospect, given the niche nature of the character and the obviously sky-high budget required to convincingly put him on the big screen.

With Cyborg barely appearing in BvS and failing to make much of an impact in Justice League, word has become increasingly quiet on the film over the last year, while Warner Bros. has reportedly reconfigured the DCEU to focus more on sure bets like Wonder Woman 1984 and lower-budget projects such as Shazam!

Cyborg technically still has an April 3, 2020 release date, but nobody in their right mind believes it'll stick, or that with the current state of the DCEU, Warner would dare spend the $100+ million necessary for a Cyborg solo film.

Nobody cares about this iteration of the character and he looked like cheap trash in the $300 million Justice League, so we likely won't see him again until Justice League 2 finally happens (assuming it does, of course).
