With the DCU Dying and WB Open to Netflix Deals, the SnyderVerse Smells Blood
via Warner Bros.
When the news broke earlier today that Warner Bros. was open to licensing certain content to Netflix under the right circumstances, everybody knew exactly where the conversation would be heading sooner rather than later.
After all, the big screen DCU has found itself in such dire straits that Black Adam – which was deemed enough of a disappointment to have star and producer Dwayne Johnson cast out in record time – will handily defeat The Flash at the box office to reign as the superhero saga’s highest-grossing release since Aquaman landed in December of 2018.
James Gunn may have shut down the chances of the SnyderVerse being sold off to Netflix before rubbing it in the fandom’s faces by handing over Dead Boy Detectives, but that hasn’t done anything to dampen the optimism of its backers. If anything, proof that Warner Bros. and HBO are open to collaboration has only emboldened them further.
Of course, the differences between Netflix acquiring five seasons of the sitcom Insecure isn’t even the same comparable ballpark as the hundreds upon hundreds of millions of dollars it would require to restore, resurrect, and continue the SnyderVerse, but when have those who’ve backed the original iteration of the DCU to the hilt ever cared for such things?
Just when you thought the campaign was ready to slink into the background ahead of the incoming reboot, the flames of hope have only gone and been stoked yet again. It would be the shock of the century were it to happen, though, but that’s what dreams are for.
