THE FLASH
Current U.S. Release Date: November 4
Ezra Miller’s Barry Allen gets his own movie with The Flash, which has gone through multiple directors since its announcement way back in 2014. Ultimately, IT and IT: Chapter Two’s Andy Muschietti ended up helming the film, with a Flashpoint-inspired story that’s designed to play around with time travel and crack open the DCEU multiverse. Ben Affleck joins Miller as Batman (in what he says is his final appearance in the role) while Michael Keaton also enters the fray, returning as the version of Batman he played in Tim Burton’s Bat-films 30 years ago. Expect to see Michael Shannon and Antje Traue as their Man of Steel characters Zod and Faora-Ul, Kiersey Clemons return as Iris West, and Sasha Calle debut as Supergirl.
BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER
Current U.S. Release Date: November 11
The Black Panther cast continues on in the wake of Chadwick Boseman’s untimely death, with a very purposeful decision made not to recast the role of T’Challa. Instead Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, Angela Bassett, and Martin Freeman will carry on, as part of a new MCU adventure that will introduce Dominique Thorne’s Riri Williams – aka Ironheart – to the franchise, before she gets her own Disney+ series. Ryan Coogler made movie magic once before and Wakanda Forever looks like it just might repeat the blockbuster success of the original.
CREED III
Current (projected) U.S. Release Date: November 23
While Sylvestor Stallone may not be reprising his role as Rocky Balboa in Creed III, star Michael B. Jordan will make his directorial debut with the film, which at this point also stars Lovecraft Country and Loki’s Jonathan Majors as the antagonist (rumored to be the son of Rocky III’s Clubber Lang, played by Mr. T). Tessa Thompson returns alongside Jordan as Bianca.
AQUAMAN AND THE LOST KINGDOM
Current U.S. Release Date: December 16
Sometimes it’s easy to forget that 2018’s Aquaman is the highest-grossing DECU film worldwide, with a total take of $1.148 billion. You’d think with that type of coin they’d have rushed out a sequel sooner, but here we are, four years later, finally getting Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. Director James Wan is back to guide another adventure about Arthur Curry/Aquama (Jason Momoa), once more joined by friends, family members, and foes like Mera (Amber Heard), Orm (Patrick Wilson), Nereus (Dolph Lundgren), Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II), Tom Curry (Temuera Morrison), and Atlanna (Nicole Kidman), though plot details remain thin at this time. All we know is that an ancient power gets unleashed, which forces Aquaman to forge an uneasy alliance with an unlikely ally to protect Atlantis, and the world, from irreversible devastation.
