Following last night’s world premiere of Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox [watch a new clip here and read our ★★★★ review], Warner Bros. took the opportunity to announce its 2014 DC Universe Animated Original Movie to those in attendance at the San Diego Comic-Con International.
In addition to the recently announced Justice League: War – which is based upon Geoff Johns and Jim Lee’s first New 52 story arc, Justice League: Origin – Warner Bros. plans to release two Dark Knight-themed movies in Son of Batman, an adaptation of Grant Morrison’s 2006 comic book arc Batman & Son which reintroduced Damian Wayne into mainstream DC continuity, and Batman: Assault on Arkham, which is said to take place within the world of the Arkham video game franchise.
Now, with Warner’s animated DC plans out in the open (including the news that Batman: The Animated Series co-creator is producing a new Batman short for DC Nation), perhaps the studio’s feature film division will offer some good news about the future of the live-action DC Movie Universe during its Hall H panel later today…
