During DC Fandome, DC film boss Walter Hamada revealed that the studio is actively exploring more multiverse films, but also revealed that 1) Superman: Red Son is not among their ideas and 2) Matt Reeves’ The Batman will not connect to any other films and will serve as a standalone story. We’ve know that second point for quite a while, but Hamada explained why this is an important decision.

“Matt Reeves can continue to build out his Gotham,” Hamada said. “Those are things that we can do because we don’t have to worry about how that would impact ‘Aquaman 2’ or ‘The Flash,’ because it’s all just part of the multiverse… There’s one earth of this beginning Justice League, and there’s another Earth where there’s this growing Year Two Batman…”

He also confirmed that we can expect more DC Elseworlds movies like Todd Phillips’ Joker. It’s definitely an exciting time to be a DC comics fan!
