DC moving forward with "Justice League Dark"

While it appeared to have been shelved, Justice League Dark is back on at Warner Bros. with Scott Rudin (Steve Jobs) set to produce the long delayed release. He's pushing hard to get the movie made, with tweaks to the script now being made and talks with directors set to start soon. In fact, Justice League Dark is now a priority for the studio and they're looking to start shooting in 2016. Tracking Board goes on to reveal that the movie involves, "a series of ancient tomes stolen by a madman hellbent on the destruction of humanity. When he learns of this, occult detective John Constantine seeks out a group of heroes that specialize in the mystic and arcane in order to save the world." Who could that madman be? We'll have to wait and see on that unfortunately.
The movie is going to be set in the DC Extended Universe, with the plan currently being for the team to co-exist separately from the Justice League (similar to The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy). However, the two worlds will eventually collide when Dark Universe characters start showing up elsewhere. Oh, and while Matt Ryan's John Constantine is heading to Arrow, he won't be part of this movie. Instead, Warner Bros. will indeed be recasting the role. What do you think?

What a shite show

I would rather a Constantine solo movie without Keanu Reeves but this works too.

It sucks that Del Toro isn't directing, but having Scott Rudin as the producer makes me feel better about it.

Too many trendy Marvel snobs. They (Marvel) may be Rex, but DC is Comus. Those who really know Mardi Gras know what I am saying.

I like DC comics, but I have stated my distain for WB multiple times. Once WB shows they can make a successful comic movie not starring Batman, I might be interested. But to be fair they will likely shoehorn Batman into this as well.

I'm interested. I'm just disappointed that they want to do this while still wanting to pursue Constantine as a TV character. I just don't understand why DC can't get this right.

Not sure why people wouldn't look forward to this. The complaint has been that the DC/WB movies have been too dark. This is the one case where going overly dark would be a plus.
You may have the A-Listers of DC's horror line:

Though the film’s heroes have not yet been announced, save for Constantine, Del Toro had mentioned that Swamp Thing, Deadman, Zatanna, and Etrigan The Demon will likely make up the team.
Hellblazer and Swamp Thing featured tales of unending torture and damnation... not sure how they could go "too dark" with this.

He's making one guest appearance on Arrow in one episode. I don't think that he's going to be doing much on TV (if anything) after that.
