SDCC2022: Green Lantern Premiere, 2023 DCU/DCA Movies Slate Announced

DC Universe and DC Animated Movies for 2023

It was Christmas in July as Warner Bros. Home Entertainment gave a gift, then tossed in a few surprises at 2022 Comic-Con International this past weekend.

The initial gift -- the World Premiere of "Green Lantern: Beware My Power" -- came on Friday night as the enthusiastic Ballroom 20 audience was treated to the first public screening of the latest entry in the 15-year history of the DC Universe Movies. The screening was followed by an exciting, informative and oftentimes funny panel discussion amongst actors Aldis Hodge (John Stewart/Green Lantern), Jimmi Simpson (Green Arrow), Jamie Gray Hyder (Hawkgirl) and Brian Bloom (Adam Strange) alongside the filmmaking quartet of executive producer Butch Lukic, director Jeff Wamester and co-screenwriters John Semper Jr. & Ernie Altbacker. Publicist Gary Miereanu served as moderator.

Among the many panel highlights was Aldis Hodge, the voice of John Stewart/Green Lantern in his first animated feature film starring role, surprising the crowd with an impromptu reciting of the Green Lantern Oath, delivered with impressive intensity and joy. 

During the later part of the panel discussion, WBHE reminded the crowd of the final DC Animated Movie coming this Fall -- "Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons" (10/18/22) -- and then rekindled its Comic-Con tradition of announcing its initial slate of DC Universe Movies and DC Animated Movies for the following year. See the attached image. With only names announced thus far, these film titles are coming in 2023:

•  Legion of Super-Heroes

•  Batman: The Doom That Came To Gotham

•  Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen, Part One

•  Justice League: Warworld
