With the world of DC Films expanding and embracing the idea of the Multiverse with films like the one to come The Flash and Matt Reeve’s The Batman confirmed not to be associated with the Justice League of 2017, fans have wondered whether the ever-growing world of DC movies will see more Elseworlds-type entries like 2019’s Joker that has no connective tissue at any corner of the DCEU. And, during the “Multiverse 101” panel at the DC FanDome on Saturday, it was confirmed that there are indeed more Elseworlds movies in development.
Asked if there would be more Elseworlds movies, specifically about whether there was one Superman Red Son film, Warner Bros. Pictures Chairman of DC-based film production Walter Hamada explained that there is definitely the possibility for more Elseworlds films – just not specific Red Son.
“The possibility is there. It really comes down to the fact that our focus is great stories and so if we encounter a filmmaker with an interesting story that does not work within our existing timeline and it would work like an Elseworlds, we would definitely explore it, “Hamada said. “I can say that we are not developing at the moment Red Son that’s not one of them, but it really comes down to when the right filmmaker when the right idea comes together. That the beauty of multiverse is we can examine it; we can go down the road and make a shot of it. “
He went on to say, “What we do not want to do is be in a place like Jim said it should be special. I do not think you want an Elseworlds movie every year like clockwork. It would be much better for it to be special. thing, and we also want them to be great. We want them to be special. reason to be. And I think that should be a reason we’m excited about, we think the fans will be excited. So, yes, the answer is yes, there will be opportunities. “
For Joker fans, there will no doubt be hope that one of those Elseworlds projects could be a Joker continued, although Joker director Todd Phillips has said he would love to see a Batman movie in the world of his film.
‘It’s a beautiful Gotham. “What I want to see is someone tackling what Batman looks like from that Gotham,” Phillips shared earlier. ‘I’m not saying I will. What interested me about including Batman in our movie was, ‘What kind of Batman makes that Gotham?’ That’s all I meant by that. “
