DC Delays The Flash and Aquaman 2, Moves Up Shazam! Fury of the Gods

Warner Bros. has even more changes in store for the DC Extended Universe after the delay of Black Adam with both The Flash and Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom being pushed back as well.

The Flash was originally set to release on November 4, 2022. It has now been pushed back to 2023 and will release on June 23, 2023. Led by Ezra Miller, the film will also feature Ron Livingston, Kiersey Clemons, Michael Shannon, Antje Traue, Sasha Calle, Ben Affleck, and Michael Keaton. Barry Allen “pushes the limits of his superpowers in the DC Super Hero’s first-ever standalone feature film.”

James Wan’s Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom has also been pushed into 2023. Originally set to release on December 16, 2022, it will now release on March 17, 2023. The film stars Jason Momoa, Patrick Wilson, Amber Heard, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Randall Park, Temuera Morrison, Dolph Lundgren, and Nicole Kidman. “When an ancient power is unleashed, Aquaman must forge an uneasy alliance with an unlikely ally to protect Atlantis, and the world, from irreversible devastation,” reads the logline.

In less disappointing news, Shazam! Fury of the Gods has actually seen its date moved up from June 2, 2023, to December 16, 2022. The sequel stars Zachary Levi, Rachel Zegler, Helen Mirren, Lucy Liu, Jack Dylan Grazer, Djimon Hounsou, and Asher Angel. It will continue “the story of teenage Billy Batson who, upon reciting the magic word “Shazam!” is transformed into his adult superhero alter ego, Shazam.”
