‘Injustice 3’ is Coming—What Will DC Do With It?

Nearly 10 years ago, NetherRealm released Injustice 2, the second game in its DC superhero fighting series. (And it’s the third superhero fighting game, beginning with 2008’s Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.) After continuing and rebooting the story of Mortal Kombat, it seems NetherRealm is going back to superheroic punch-ups, as Green Lantern and Aquaman voice actor Phil LaMaar reportedly told a fan at a recent convention a third game is happening. This will come as little surprise to anyone pay

The Big ‘Superman’ Speech Happened After This Emotional Behind the Scenes Moment

Sometimes the most magical thing about a movie is seeing how it came together. We can watch the final product and feel however it makes us feel, but that’s usually disconnected from all the work that went into it. You rarely think about the different takes, different conversations, and intense work that go into every single second. Especially a film’s biggest, most important emotional moment.

James Gunn’s Superman was pushed out of the top five at the box office this past weekend, marking the beginning of the end of its box office run. It’s been a good one, with over $330 million in the U.S. so far and another $250 million worldwide. It’s the highest-grossing Superman film ever, domestically not adjusted for inflation, and now the journey takes its next step. Gunn took to social media Tuesday to announce his DC Universe film will be available on digital August 15. That’s this week.

In 2025, that battle is between James Gunn’s new film and records set by Zack Snyder’s 2013 film.
