With Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad both set to arrive this year, cameras rolling on Wonder Woman, casting on Aquaman starting to come together, and development on the two-part Justice League movie well underway, Warner Bros. is finally in full swing with its DC Extended Universe.
Speaking to The Daily Beast, Batman v Superman and Justice League helmer Zack Snyder has been discussing the ever-expanding universe, stating that they now have a good handle on where they want to go.

“It is constantly evolving, but we’re starting to get a handle on where we’re going with the world,” states Snyder. “That’s fun because it allows us now to be driving toward a goal that we don’t have to make up as much. The rules can be the rules, and the movie can exist in a closed universe… it allows us to tie things together. If there’s a movie over here doing this, and we’re over here doing this, now we’re all on the same page. It allows for a coherent universe, which is important. I think that makes the experience a little more satisfying because we know where we’re going, so the misdirects can be stronger and the reveals can be bigger.”
