JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK Finds A Producer; Major Plot Details And Shooting Date Revealed

While Guillermo Del Toro may no longer be directing, Justice League Dark (a.k.a. Dark Universe) is back on at Warner Bros. with a high profile producer now attached.

While it appeared to have been shelved, Justice League Dark is back on at Warner Bros. with Scott Rudin (Steve Jobs) set to produce the long delayed release. He's pushing hard to get the movie made, with tweaks to the script now being made and talks with directors set to start soon. In fact, Justice League Dark is now a priority for the studio and they're looking to start shooting in 2016. Tracking Board goes on to reveal that the movie involves, "a series of ancient tomes stolen by a madman hellbent on the destruction of humanity. When he learns of this, occult detective John Constantine seeks out a group of heroes that specialize in the mystic and arcane in order to save the world." Who could that madman be? We'll have to wait and see on that unfortunately. 

The movie is going to be set in the DC Extended Universe, with the plan currently being for the team to co-exist separately from the Justice League (similar to The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy). However, the two worlds will eventually collide when Dark Universe characters start showing up elsewhere. Oh, and while Matt Ryan's John Constantine is heading to Arrow, he won't be part of this movie. Instead, Warner Bros. will indeed be recasting the role. What do you think?

DC JUST WON!!!!!!!!!

Fainted after I came with joy at this news

Del Toro remaining a producer & likely will use his script.

Del Toro said himself the film would have Constantine, Zatanna, Swamp Thing, Etrigen, Specte, Deadman, and more.

Don't care about JL, Avengers, Inhumans, whatever the [frick]ery Fox is doing.

Constantine, Zatanna, Swamp Thing is coming.

Holy [frick] yes.

Tracking Board is way more miss then hit. Even the things they get right half the info about it is wrong.

"The movie is going to be set in the DC Extended Universe, with the plan currently being for the team to co-exist separately from the Justice League (similar to The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy)."

Actually, that's not like the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy at all. The Avengers and Guardians exist at the same time–so to speak–though one group is earth-bound, while the other is cosmic and involves other universes and worlds.

But they co-exist. Based on the way that Wilding tries to explain the world that Justice League Dark exists in implies that he doesn't understand Marvel Studios continuity or he's making excuses for DC Entertainment.

Or maybe both.

safe to say Marvel is winning more than DC today, based on this alone

Civil War on screen with the introdduction int he MCU of Spidey that we wanted! It's gonna be on screen!
And what about Deadpool this nut job with his R rated movie?

Oh and Suicide Squad, one of the big surprise of the DC slates with the introduction of Harley Quinn.

Our duty ist just to be happy for all of this to be hapenning and hoping they're will be great!

Felix Faust would make sense. Also, this and Shazam need to set up Doctor Fate.
