For Reeves, this is the end result of years of campaigning to return to the role -- first privately, within Warner Bros., and later publicly. Whenever asked, Reeves has said that he would love to revisit Constantine, including a famous interview clip with CBS's Stephen Colbert, in which Reeves has to convince a surprised Colbert that his name alone wasn't enough to get a sequel greenlit.

Does Batman's The Brave and the Bold Movie Hint That Nightwing Is Part of the DCU?
Considering Batman is one of the most popular comic book heroes ever created, there was never a chance DC Studios would develop its DC Universe without a version of the Caped Crusader. That much was confirmed Tuesday when DC Studios bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran announced The Brave and the Bold, a live-action featuring Batman and Robin. Not just that, but it was confirmed the movie is going to be a father-and-son story following Bruce and Damian Wayne. Given that Damian Wayne is the fifth person to don the Robin mantle, we've got to ask—where's Dick Grayson in all of this?

Marvel's Gael García Bernal Joins Nicole Kidman in New Thriller
Marvel Studios did something unprecedented last fall by releasing their first of many Special Presentations, Werewolf by Night. Werewolf by Night was totally different than anything the studio had released before, with critics lauding it as one of the freshest entries to Phase 4.

If you wanted to see more of the actor, it seems that he's found his next gig. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bernal has joined the Nicole Kidman-led Amazon Prime thriller Holland, Michigan. The film is being helmed by Mimi Cave with a script written by Andrew Sodroski. Kidman is producing the film with it being described a a "Hitchcock style thriller".

Five Nights at Freddy's Movie Begins Filming, First Set Photo Released
The Five Nights at Freddy's movie has officially started filming. Video game adaptations are some of the most hellish projects in all of Hollywood. For the longest time, a number of video games have been adapted for the silver screen and many of them were terrible or just ok at best. Some of the biggest ones also had trouble getting off the ground and experienced tons of turn over from actors, writers, directors, and so on. This is one of the major problems that plagued Uncharted and even The Last of Us to an extent, but the latter turned out much better than the former. One of the projects that has lingered in development hell for some time is the Five Nights at Freddy's movie.

Did DC Studios Accidentally Reveal a Plastic Man Project?
James Gunn and Peter Safran have finally cleared up most of the confusion around their DC Studios plans by unveiling their new slate of projects yesterday. Gunn and Safran announced a massive slate of projects that they're calling Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters, and included the title of the next Superman and Batman movies. Superman: Legacy, The Batman – Part II and The Brave and the Bold were among the projects announced, but most of the slate is pretty obscure. The new DC Studios co-CEOs will release an animated series based on the Creature Commandos and a live action film based on The Authority. Gunn is known for making misfit characters more popular, so those announcements aren't that surprising. But it seems that during the presentation he also could have revealed that they are working on a Plastic Man project. ComicBook.com's Brandon Davis got to attend the event and Gunn teased how they could use their more popular characters to boost their more unknown characters like Booster Gold and even Plastic Man.
