Warner Bros Justice League Dark Apokolips War 2020 DC Animated movie.

Justice League Dark is coming back for a new movie in 2020. During the Batman: Hush premiere panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, DC revealed its slate of DC Universe Original Movies coming in 2020. Among them is Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, a new film featuring the Justice League team that deals with the arcane and otherworldly.

The film is a sequel to 2017’s Justice League Dark, one of the few R-rated DC Universe Original Movies. Justice League Dark saw Batman assembling a team of magic-based heroes to deal with a supernatural threat. The team included John Constantine (voiced b live-action Constantine actor Matt Ryan), Zatanna, Swamp Thing, Deadman, Etrigan and Black Orchid, the bringing some of DC darker heroes to a wider audience.

DC did not confirm which heroes will be featured in Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, though the title suggests the New Gods of Apokolips and New Genesis will have a role to play. As with the first Justice League Dark movie, the sequel will take place in the ongoing DC Universe Original Movie. No word on whether the sequel will also be R-rated.

Justice League Dark was created as part of the original New 52 era offerings from DC Comics. There have been plans to adapt the team into live-action, but none have been successful. Guillermo Del Toro wrote a script for a Justice League Dark movie, but his script was abandoned. The project has remained in development, but can’t seem to hang on to a director. There were also plans to introduce Justice League Dark in episodes of Constantine and Swamp Thing, respectively, but both series were canceled before those plans could become reality.

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War is one of three DC Universe Original Movies announced for 2020. It will be the second film release, wedged between two Superman movies. Superman: Red Son will be released first, an adaptation of the popular DC Comics Elseworlds tale. The final DC Universe Original Movie of 2020 will be Superman: Man of Tomorrow, an original story about Superman during his early years as a superhero.
2comments

Are you excited about Justice League Dark: Apokolips War? What about Superman: Man of Tomorrow and the Superman: Red Son movie? Let us know in the comments. The films do not have release dates yet.

Previous DC Universe Original Movies can be streamed via the DC Universe streaming service. Batman: Hush becomes available on Digital today, July 20th. The film will release on Blu-ray and DVD on August 6th.

Since its not out till 2020 figured id post it here.

If Constantine is in this I will be happy.

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War?


I enjoyed Justice League Dark, but Darkseid is the primary Justice League's foe. I can't say I have much of an interest in seeing Constantine and the Dark gang doing Superman's League's job.

After the disappointment that was Batman: Hush, I don't really have much of an interest anymore in most of these DC animated films, especially if they are continuing in a shared universe. Unless DC ups the quality and starts adapting comic stories in stand-alone films emulating the style of the original artists, I'm not going to pursue too many more of these films.

I'm still holding out hope that Batman: The Long Halloween will be adapted faithfully to Loeb's story and Tim Sale's art style, but I have a feeling I might be disappointed.

I imagine the coverart work would be very drawn very well but the actual animation would be cheap af

I hate this style of animation for the DC characters -- to the point that I can't stand to look at it.

I find the earlier Justice League/JLI animated-series style (which they picked up for a few of the movies, like Crisis on Two Earths) much more appealing.

They had better voice actors for those early-2000s shows too; better Batman (Conroy), better Darkseid, etc.

I'm starting to feel this way. Or at least I have been for the past couple of years. I've always defended these movies -- they used to be something special, but the more they make, the less I seem to care about them. They need more diverse designs and more fluid animation, maybe produce fewer of them with higher budgets and better quality.

Mostly looks like Constantine, Superman, and Robin vs. Darkseid.

meh.

I've been a fan and supporter of Damian Wayne ever since he was created, but the criticisms of him being a "Gary Sue" are looking harder to dispute, especially when you consider him going up against Darkseid.

I'm cynical, but I'll still watch it. Hopefully, it'll surprise me.

The animation is absolute garbage in these films. They're on the same level as flash animation imo.

The days when these movies' sales were OK are long gone. The audience is far too limited now to increase the animation's budget (they desperately need better writers though).

A new report suggests Justice League Dark: Apokolips War will, in fact, be the final film in Warner Bros.' current DC Animated Movie Universe.
