Cancelled projects

"*It didn't work out.*"
―Barbara Gordon[src]
These are projects that were once a part of the DCEU slate, but was either scrapped or converted.

## Cancelled projects

### *Justice League: Final Crisis*

A second Justice League film with Anti-Monitor as the villain. It was to be an adaptation of *Crisis on Infinite Earths*. The film was deemed too large and was scrapped.

### *Kingdom Come*

A *Kingdom Come* film set decades after the *Injustice* films.

### *Superman: Warworld*

Mongul would've been the main villain. It would also deal with Coast City being destroyed and Hal Jordan succumbing to Parallax influence.

### *Men of Steel*

A second Superman film that was based on *Reign of the Supermen* storyline.

### *The Superman*

This universe started with Superman, it makes sense that it should end with him too, fight? Well, no.

The film was a direct sequel to *Kingdom Come*.

### *Robin x Spoiler*

Tim Drake and Stephanie Brown is my favorite DC couple so I planned a film about the two, but I didn't feel it was necessary and scrapped it. Lady Shiva and Cluemaster would've been the villains.

### A *Joker* solo film

At one point it was a grounded Joker origin story, later it was changed into a comedic Joker and Harley Quinn film. The film was left abandoned and was cancelled. A Joker film not set within the DCEU was released in 2019 starring Joaquin Phoenix.

### *Tales of the Bat Family*

An animated Bat Family series canon to the DCEU created with the prupose of expanding the Batman lore within the DCEU.

Though, this series still exists in my world, separate from the DCEU or any animated universe.

### *Batman Beyond* films

It would've been set long after the modern era.

Though this film was later made to be a part of the Burtonverse and a follow-up of *Young Justice*.

### *The Scarlet Speedster: Secret Society*

The third Flash film with Gorilla Grodd as the villain.

### *The Scarlet Speedster: Godspeed*

Another potential story for the third Flash film, Godspeed would've been the villain, but since there was already Professor Zoom, another evil speedster was considered redundant.

### *Aquaman: The Trench*

The third Aquaman film with the Trench creatures as the principal villains.

### *Blackest Night*

This film was always meant to be a part of the DCEU and had been for a long time until its cancellation. It was cancelled after the release of *Avengers: Endgame* after it was deemed to similar for the deceased characters to be resurrected after the battle against Darkseid.

### *Wrath of the First Lantern*

A third Green Lantern Corps film that would've featured Volthoom as the villain. Based on the *Wrath of the First Lantern* storyline.

### *Young Justice* sequels

*Young Justice* was meant to be a trilogy. The second film was titled *Invasion* with Khundians and Red Tornado and the third film was titled *Extinction* with Superboy Prime. Another idea for the third film was at one point *Young Justice: The Devil's Order*, a violent r-rated film with H.I.V.E. as the villains.

All of these films were scrapped as it felt the first *Young Justice* film was sufficient and their story had come full circle.

### *Blue Beetle and Static*

A crossover film after Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle and Static received their own solo films.

## Reworked projects

### *Injustice: Part One & Two*

The films were condensed into one film: ***Justice League: The Anti-Life Equation - Part II***.

### *Son of Krypton*

The film was set to release in 2018 as the second Superman solo film. It was planned to be a grounded film with only including central Superman characters. But the inclusion of Brainiac and Doomsday was felt too early and was converted to ***Man of Tomorrow*** with the inclusion of the JSA and the Green Lantern Corps.

### *The Batman* and *Batman: Under the Hood*

The first Batman film would've had Deathstroke and Black Mask as the villains and Red Hood's story would've act as the sequel. The films were combined into one film to make ***The Batman***.

### *Red Hood*

A Red Hood solo film with Deathstroke as the main villain. The film was reworked into the ***Red Hood*** TV Series.

### *The Power of Shazam!* and *Shazam! In the Seven Realms*

The Shazam films regarding Black Adam and Mister Mind were combined and reworked into ***Billy Batson and the Power of Shazam!***.

### *Teen Titans: Techno War*

A second Titans film with GRID as the main villain. The story for the film was incorporated into the second season of ***The Titans Saga***.

### *Titans: Outsiders*

Another considered story for the second Titans film, with H.I.V.E. as the villains. The story was incorporated into the first season of ***The Titans Saga***.

### *Dark Universe: The Demon Within*

The Justice League Dark film with Klarion as the villain. The subtitle *"The Demon Within"* was taken from an episode of *The New Batman Adventures*. The film was reworked with a different villain and a simple title, ***Justice League Dark***.

### *Flashpoint Batman*

The solo film for Thomas Wayne. It was reworked into a TV Series, ***The Wayne Tragedy***.

## Miscellaneous ideas

There were many impulsive project ideas that are thought of but never fully considered.

* Horror ***Flash*** sequel with the Black Flash as the villain.
* Damian Wayne solo.
* ***Vixen 2*** featuring Animal Man.
* ***Aquaman and the Others 2 / Aquaman 4***
