Tsujihara promised at least ten movies will be coming beginning in 2016 with the currently filming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. 2016 will also see the release of a Suicide Squad movie, for which the CEO said the studio is in talks with four A-List actors.

Wonder Woman and a Zack Snyder-directed Justice League Part 1 film will follow in 2017, with The Flash and Aquaman coming out the next year. The company has Shazam and Justice League 2 movies planned for 2019, and Cyborg and a new Green Lantern adaptation scheduled for 2020.

In a press release issued by the company, it was confirmed that Jason Momoa will be taking the lead as Aquaman in his solo movie, while Ezra Miller has been cast as The Flash. Cyborg will star Ray Fisher. David Ayer will be taking the reins of the Suicide Squad film, while Zack Snyder remains on directing duties for both Justice League movies. Interesting, despite previous rumors to the contrary, Snyder is not listed as directing the Wonder Woman movie, starring Gal Gadot.

Tsujihara also said that the company has more television shows based on DC comics in the pipeline.
