The two new DC Comics projects — a series adaptation of Strange Adventures and a series inspired by The Green Lantern will be executive produced by Berlanti for HBO Max. 

“Both of these original DC properties we’ll be creating for HBO Max will be unlike anything seen on television,” Berlanti said Tuesday in a statement. “An anthology series of cautionary tales set in a world where superpowers exist, and, in what promises to be our biggest DC show ever made, we will be going to space with a Green Lantern television series, but I can’t reveal any more about that just yet.”

While details on The Green Lantern project are being kept under wraps, it is known that the Strange Adventures adaptation will be a DC superhero anthology that will feature characters from across the DC canon and will explore the intersecting lives of ordinary humans and super-humans.

Anweis, whose other TV credits include  911, Twin Peaks: The Return, The Affair and NCIS: Los Angeles, has been tapped to star in The CW’s drama pilot opposite Ruby Rose.

According to Variety, Anweis will play Catherine Hamilton-Kane, Kate Kane’s (aka Batwoman’s) step-mother. Catherine made her fortune as a savvy, bullheaded defense contractor, and all those billions position her as one of Gotham’s most powerful residents. For Catherine, it’s a matter of the bottom line: Batwoman is bad for business.

She joins the previously announced Dougray Scott, Meagan Tandy, Camrus Johnson, Nicole Kang, and Rachel Skarsten.

Batwoman follows Kate Kane (Rose), armed with a passion for social justice and a flair for speaking her mind, who soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city’s criminal resurgence.

Batwoman is written by Caroline Dries and directed by Marcos Siega.

The CW and Warner Bros. TV treated fans of Rose and the iconic DC Comics superhero to a first look image of the actress as the superwoman ahead of the Arrowverse crossover event. 

The first image of Rose in character was unveiled Tuesday on DC Comics official Twitter account. In the photo, the 32-year-old actress is clad in the iconic black-and-white caped catsuit complete with Kate Kane’s signature red locks and of course the bat insignia emblazoned on her chest.

The standalone Batwoman series is currently in development for the 2019-20 television season at The CW with Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schecter at the helm. The official logline for Batwoman reads: “Armed with a passion for social justice and a flair for speaking her mind, Kate Kane soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city’s criminal resurgence. But don’t call her a hero yet. In a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham’s symbol of hope.”

Rose celebrated her new role in August, writing on Instagram, “The Bat is out of the bag and I am beyond thrilled and honored. I’m also an emotional wreck.. because this is a childhood dream. This is something I would have died to have seen on TV when I was a young member of the LGBT community who never felt represented on TV and felt alone and different.

If the project goes to series, Rose will be the first to star as a gay lead character in a live-action superhero TV show.

The three-night DC crossover event kicks off Sunday, December 9.

Even though comic creators move between different publishers all the time, this was quite big news as Bendis’ move is a special case. DC revealed in a tweet that they had signed Bendis to an exclusive deal. This means that after 17 years writing for Marvel, creating and revitalizing characters who have gone to play big parts onscreen, Bendis is jumping ship.

In their statement on Twitter DC said, “We are beyond thrilled to welcome Brian Michael Bendis exclusively to the DC family with a multiyear, multi-faceted deal. He’s one of the premier writers in the industry, having created so many unforgettable stories wherever he’s been and we can’t wait to see what he has planned for the DC universe.”

Bendis confirmed the news in a tweet of his own, “this is real. I love you all. Change is good. Change is healthy. I am bursting with ideas and inspiration. Details to come! Stay tuned!”

Todd Phillips (The Hangover) will co-write and direct the movie, and Martin Scorsese will produce it with Phillips.

The untitled movie about the origins of The Joker, is the first to be produced under a yet-to-be announced separate banner with the intent of creating unique storylines for the studio’s iconic heroes and villains.

The Joker has played a memorable part in several Batman movies, portrayed by Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, and most recently Jared Leto in the first Suicide Squad film. Leto will reprise his role in the Suicide Squad sequel, however, Philips’ film is most likely going to feature a different and perhaps younger actor.

The Clown Prince of Crime origin movie will feature an intriguing setting in the form of a gritty and grounded crime film set in early 80’s Gotham City, much like and similar to a Scorsese film from that era, rather than a DC movie.

A source reports that Phillips and Silver have begun writing but there’s no decision where this movie will fit into the DC schedule.
