The DCEU ’s timeline may be about to be rebooted in the DC Universe , but here ’s how to watch the DCEU in release order or chronological monastic order .

Why Netflix Would Be Interested In Continuing The Snyderverse

Bringing the Snyderverse to Netflix would be a win move for the streaming service , in terms of eyeshot and endorser . Despite Zack Snyder ’s original version ofJustice Leaguenot getting a theatrical release , thefour - 60 minutes - retentive conductor ’s cut ofJustice Leaguewas an instant hit among viewers ever since it was made usable for streaming on Max . Based on third - party analytics , Bloombergreported that the Snyder cut lead to a 64 % increment ( 1.48 million downloads ) in Max downloads within the first ten day of its release on the HBO cyclosis political platform . Additionally , 119.1 million app session were report marking an 8.9 % rise .

The Major Problem For Netflix Continuing The Snyderverse

Despite Netflix ’s obvious support for Snyder , there ’s not much that theMan of Steelfilmmaker can do if DC Studios does n’t provide Netflix with the licensing right . As it currently stands , there ’s littlechance of Gunn and Safran greenlighting the Snyderverse for Netflix , see they are working on their own DC Universe . Even if Snyder ’s Netflix DC projects were established as an alternative timeline , DC ’s own next slate already let in both a main timeline and parallel taradiddle makes things further complex .

Some of themost exciting upcoming DCU storylinesinclude not just plan likeSuperman : Legacyand the Lanterns TV series but also movies likeJoker : Folie à DeuxandThe Batman Part II , which are n’t coif within Gunn ’s DCU’sChapter One : Gods and Monstersbanner . With so much in the DCU grapevine and Max being a streaming pardner for most of the forthcoming task , it ’s unlikely that DC Studios would be willing to Snyder engineer a parallel DC universe on Netflix . There is just too little motivator , particularly with the likelihood of any Snyderverse revival effectively create competition for the DCU , and feeding into an already complex civilisation of fan division .

The DCEU is almost complete after 15 movies , but how does Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom compare to the likes of Justice League and The Flash ?
