Arrow fans were delighted when Manu Bennett reprised his role as Slade Wilson for the fifth and sixth seasons, Deathstroke costume and all. Sadly, that last two-parter may have to tide us over awhile, as Arrow bosses confirm DC once again rescinded access to the character.
Batman’s beloved sidekick was implied to have met a bitter end in the DCEU, but Robin is alive and well on TV. See for yourself in our first official photo from DC’s live-action Titans series, as Brenton Thwaites’ Dick Grayson gets a note-perfect costume for the modern age.
Gotham star David Mazouz minced few words to say “Batman is coming” in Season 4 (he’s exaggerated before), but the first Season 4 artwork definitely inches in that direction. The Knight is darkest before the Dawn, as a new Comic-Con poster reveals Season 4’s subtitle.
Who watches the Watchmen? Everyone with an HBO account, if Damon Lindelof has his way. The former LOST and Leftovers boss is officially in talks to helm a new TV series version of the Alan Moore classic, and Zack Snyder is nowhere near it.
It may be the title of the movie but the words “wonder” and “woman” are ever spoken in Wonder Woman. Until an underwhelming fight between two super-beings brings the film crashing back down to earth, Wonder Woman often feels less like a superhero movie than a modern fable, about a strong but sheltered young woman who discovers the pleasures and perils of the wider world. It’s presented with strong visual style and abundant heart by Patty Jenkins, and played with oozing charisma by its two well-cast stars, Chris Pine and Gal Gadot as the (not-technically-named-) Wonder Woman.
So far the reviews of the DC Extended Universe movies have been ... uh, what’s the opposite of good? Bad. They’ve been bad. The first three movies — Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Suicide Squad — have an average Rotten Tomatoes score of 36. That is bad. The opposite of good. For sure.
