6 Troubling Batman V Superman Behind The Scenes Rumours You Need To Know

2. The Fate Of The Entire DC Films Slate Rests On Batman V Superman

Looking at the DC Films slate, it's not remotely difficult to imagine at least a few of those movies being changed or cancelled altogether. Dating a Cyborg movie is a ballsy move, and rumours are already pointing to that becoming Teen Titans instead. Green Lantern Corps seems to be equally up in the air with no sign of Hal Jordan in Batman v Superman, while Shazam is also a bit of an unknown despite The Rock's involvement. Worryingly though, some reports have made it sound as if the fate of ALL these movies is hinging on Batman v Superman's success. With Suicide Squad only months away from release and shooting on Wonder Woman already well underway, those are obviously safe, but if a movie featuring the Dark Knight fighting the Man of Steel isn't enough to sell tickets, why would Warner Bros. press forward with The Flash for example? It's important to note that to suddenly cancel these movies would be a huge embarrassment for the studio, and while there could certainly be some big changes made if the response to Batman v Superman is a tepid one, Justice League, Aquaman, and the rest suddenly vanishing is something which it's hard to take seriously. However, hit or not, there's no denying that Batman v Superman is a very important movie.
