DC Studios recently revealed its upcoming slate of 10 new TV shows and movies that will tell the next chapter in the DC Universe. The thing is, we’ve all got some waiting to do before any of them are released. Superman: Legacy is the only new project so far with a release date set for July 11, 2025. This isn’t counting projects that were already in development, including Shazam! Fury of the Gods, and sequels to Matt Reeves’ Batman and Todd Phillips’ Joker, among a few others.
