DC released a slate years ago but that seems to have been thrown out the window.
I genuinely have no idea what is even getting made now. There's Shazam and Wonder Woman 2.
Two Joker movies? A Harley Quinn movie? New Gods? Batman? Flashpoint? Man of Steel 2? Suicide Squad 2?
What exactly?

I'm betting they're gonna fast track one of the latter projects should Aquaman make enough money;note I didn't say anything about reviews.
SS2 will get made since that was a hit;Harley Quinn's spinoff better be scraped for Birds of Prey (which is also in development). The Batman will eventually get made, I think. I'd rather not have the Joker movies even if it is Philips and Scorsese.
New Gods and Man of Steel 2 are the most intriguing to me but I'm not certain if they'd really happen. Flashpoint honestly makes the most sense to act as a DOFP-styled reworking of the characters. But I don't think they should do a strictly faithful adaptation;it's a real gruesome story that makes WW the villain and given her popularity, that's a dumb mistake to make.

Thinking about the Flashpoint/DoFP reworking, would it be worth it? It worked for X-men because it was in their main movie. It'd work for the MCU because they have a 10 year history. But Flash isn't that big of a character in the DC movies yet. It would be like Fox making a Kitty Pryde movie and did the DoFP story back in 2006. Not many people are following every movie like they are with the MCU. People would be totally confused when they see all the characters changed in their movies. I think they be better off making it a Crisis type of Justice League movie. But then again, people would say they are trying to copy Avengers 3 & 4.

Holy shit, I forgot all about Steven Spielberg directing Blackhawk! I guess that's on the agenda?

Oh hell, Deathstroke too? Forgot about this one too which sounds cool but I cannot see happening even though Gareth Evans is perfect. And he can do it on a minuscule budget too! That's what he's good at. The Raid 2 is one of the best action films this century and it cost $4.5 million! That's a f*cking SyFy Channel movie here in the states!
On second thought, can't he just do the Suicide Squad 2 movie? Make Deathstroke the new leader or a rival of Deadshot? That'd be great! Dammit, WB, think for once! Think!

I think WB is officially deep in pre-production with SS2, the joker spin off, probably the batman, birds of prey, Gl, and the flash.
MoS2 is still an unknown
And anything else you can probably ignore.
Edit: besides I'm pretty sure that Marvel does the same thing, but they're smart enough to not let anything in early preproduction leak.

You know, WB could have taken a page from the MCU and rebooted the Green Lantern Corps after Man of Steel or even BVS. Hear me out, they could have done what the MCU did for recasting Bruce Banner in The Incredible Hulk. Just throw in a fancy title sequence showing Hal Jordan getting the ring, earning his place in the corps, and Sinestro turning evil. Then cut to the present day for the current story. But hindsight is 20/20.

In all seriousness, making the Nolan films part of a shared universe would’ve been an extremely cynical corporate decision.
