Warner Bros. DC’s 10-year plan was recently announced by Discovery CEO David Zaslav. Several DC Comics properties have been underutilized, and even those that have been adapted into films have had mixed results.
In the wake of Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy’s conclusion, the DCEU has lacked direction. Therefore, they are taking things in a different direction. In an interview with DC fans, David Zaslav assured them the company understands the current situation and is taking steps to make things better.
Following is what he said on a recent earnings call”Quality will be a priority,” Zaslav said. “We will not release any movie before it is ready. There is something we can do better with DC.”After Warner Bros. merged with Discovery, this news follows a massive restructuring.
In addition, it follows mere days after it was announced the Batgirl movie would be canceled. A change of strategy appears to have been made after the studio had almost finished the film. The studio does not want to make low-budget movies for streaming; they want blockbusters instead.
