Variety recently spoke with Warner Media’s Ann Sarnoff given the release of Zack Snyder’s “Justice League” and this is what she had to say about the future of the DC Universe and gives us a little tidbit on “The Batman“:
Instead, Sarnoff believes that the future of DC is more than just movies. She’s excited about a multi-platform future, one that sees Batman, Superman, the Flash, and other Justice League members popping up on streaming shows, video games, television spinoffs, and big screen outings. It’s a vision that echoes what Marvel has been doing with its Avengers characters, taking superheroes like the Vision, the Scarlet Witch, Hawkeye and Loki, who have previously appeared only in movies, and giving them streaming shows of their own.Â
…
Looking at the DC slate, there seems to be an emphasis on creating opportunities for diverse creators and and characters. … Is there a concerted effort to take the brand in a more inclusive direction?
It’s super important to me and it’s in line with what we want to do. We want to branch out and let creators interpret parts of the universe in unique and special ways. … Matt Reeves just finished filming “The Batman†against the odds of COVID. We’re so excited to finish that movie and have people see it, because Matt’s take on Batman is different than other takes. Even familiar characters have lots of possibilities.
