Warner Bros. Would Love Cohesive DC Comics TV And Movie Universe

While speaking to IGN, Batman vs. Superman writer David S. Goyer discussed the differences between Marvel's approach to their movie and television universe and that of Warner Bros., thus far. During the course of the conversation, Goyer revealed that Warner Bros. would actually like their universe to be more cohesive, a bit more like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, than it is currently. "I know that Warner Bros. would love to make their universe more cohesive," Goyer said. "There have been a lot of general conversations about that, but it's really, really early. I'm not sure. Marvel has had enormous success, but I'm not sure that everybody should try to emulate them either. It's just been vague conversations so far. That is pretty vague, but it seems that Marvel's success has been too much to ignore if Warner Bros. is at least considering moving in that direction. On the other hand, could Goyer be on to something when he says that not everyone should take Marvel's approach? With Batman and Superman about to share the screen for the first time, and Wonder Woman joining them, it's clear that Warner Bros. learned the value of superhero star power from the success of The Avengers, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they have to have multiple films for each individual character or a television series tied into the films as well. It's still early, so we'll have to wait and see what direction Warner Bros. ultimately decides to go in. Batman vs. Superman is scheduled for theatrical release on May 6, 2016.
