The DC Extended Universe (DCEU) is an American media franchise and shared fictional universe that is centered on a series of superhero films, distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, based on characters that appear in publications by DC Comics.

Later in May 2016, it was announced that as part of the restructuring of DC Films, Charles Roven would no longer serve as producer of DC-based films at Warner Bros., a role he had served since 2005's Batman Begins, but would be moved to an administrative executive producer role.

Warner Bros. were clearly impressed with Ms. Gadot, as she'll be doing Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, the Wonder Woman solo movie, Justice League, and Justice League 2 in a fairly short amount of time.

In May 2016, it was announced that Warner Bros. was undergoing a massive restructuring behind the scenes of the DC Extended Universe. Listening to criticism after Batman v Superman, Warner Bros. established a DC Films unit in May 2016 with Geoff Johns and Warner Bros. executive vice president Jon Berg as its heads. The DC Films production unit will serve to oversee production and form a cohesive creative direction for the DC Extended Universe.

The shared universe, much like the original DC Universe in comic books, was established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast and characters. The films have been in production since 2011, and in that time Warner Bros. has distributed three films, with more than ten in various stages of production.

If you’re not familiar, “DCCU” stands for “Detective Comics Cinematic Universe.” This isn’t the first time DC and parent company Warner Bros. has made a push to unite their comic book properties on the big screen. You can go all the way back to the ill-fated Superman Lives to find the first inkling of the idea.

Fans already know who Batman is, who Superman is, who Wonder Woman and Aquaman are. With Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, DC is jumping straight into the Avengers game, putting at least four well-established heroes on screen with only one of them (Superman) being given a stand-alone movie in preparation.

First up, and coming this weekend, is Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. This movie will, fairly or not, be called DC’s version of Marvel’s Civil War. Like Civil War it will be a quasi-Avengers/Justice League movie, with heroes on both sides fighting one another. Early reports for the movie are mixed, so it likely won’t reach the level of popular frenzy that Civil War will hit when it releases in May. Still, it’s expected to be enough to keep the DCCU dream going.
