10 Comic Book Movies That Will Literally Never Happen

1. Booster Gold & Blue Beetle

Justice League Cyborg
DC Comics

Surely the most eccentric and, er, optimistic project on the DCEU slate at present, this movie will see cult heroes Booster Gold and Blue Beetle appearing in their own team-up film, with Zack Stentz (X-Men: First Class, Thor) and Greg Berlanti (Arrow) currently working on a script focused largely on Booster Gold.

The unnamed team-up film was first confirmed in late 2015, but updates have been incredibly scarce as of late. Most recently, Berlanti said that he wasn't sure whether or not the movie would be a DCEU project or part of Warner Bros.' non-canon DC slate, where the Joaquin Phoenix-starring Joker film will reside.

After all, it doesn't seem terribly likely the duo will be integrated into the Justice League, and given Booster Gold's penchant for time travel, it's probably best if he's kept far away from the already messy continuity of the DCEU.

But the salient point is that these more niche characters can't be a priority for Warner right now while they're in post-Justice League crisis mode. As such, it'd be incredibly easy for the studio to just sweep this under the rug along with Justice League Dark and Cyborg.

Do you think of any of these superhero movies could actually get made? Shout it out in the comments!
