Warner Bros. Has The Script For JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK

Forbes has word from Guillermo del Toro that the script for Justice League Dark aka Dark Universe has been sent-in to Warner Bros. The project has been in-development for sometime but hasn't been given the greenlight by the studio. A major reason it wasn't apart of their DC movie release date slate the studio hasn't actually committed to it yet.

We still have no idea what writer collaborated with del Toro on the script. There is also a bit ambiguity if Guillermo is going to direct or just produce. His next film will be Pacific Rim 2 which is due out in 2017, around the same time as Wonder Woman and Justice League. I think it all comes down to if Warner Bros. commits to the draft they've been given.

Guillermo Del Toro Writing Outline For DARK UNIVERSE Confirms They've Found A Screenwriter

IGN talked to Guillermo del Toro on his in-development DC Comic film Heaven Sent. Previously, coy about the project Guillermo was a little forthcoming with details revealing it's working title is Dark Universe. Confirming that he's currently writing the outline and has hired a screenwriter to flush out the script. However, the film hasn't been greenlit by the studio which will likely come down to how the script turns out. He names Swamp Thing, John Constantine, Deadman, Spectre, Zatanna and Etrigan The Demon as being involved in the film. Warner Bros. could be looking to start-off their own cohesive DC Universe with Man of Steel leading to Justice League. It's possible that Dark Universe could somehow inhabit the same cinematic world as Justice League.
