All the DC Comics movies and TV shows in the works for HBO Max after 'Peacemaker'

  • HBO Max's "The Suicide Squad" spinoff series, "Peacemaker," is a hit.
  • The series is just one DC Comics project in the works for Max.

"Peacemaker," HBO Max's first TV series based on a DC Comics movie, is a hit.

It was the biggest original streaming show in the world as of January 22, according to audience demand data from Parrot Analytics.

It's not the first DC project for WarnerMedia's Max — the service inherited shows like "Titans" and "Doom Patrol" from the former streaming service DC Universe (which is now a digital-comics-only service called DC Universe Infinite). And it certainly won't be the last. In a 2020 profile, the DC Films chief Walter Hamada told The New York Times, "With every movie that we're looking at now, we are thinking, 'What's the potential Max spinoff?'"

Here are a handful of titles that WarnerMedia confirmed are in development or have been ordered to the service:

  • "Batgirl," a Max original movie
  • "The Batman" spinoff about the Gotham City Police Department
  • A Green Lantern series and "Strange Adventures" from Greg Berlanti
  • A series inspired by Justice League Dark characters, produced by J.J. Abrams

And more have been reported to be in the works, like another spinoff of "The Batman" starring Colin Farrell's Penguin.

DC is set to be a major component of Max as the service continues to compete in the streaming space, which has been dominated by genre IP like Marvel and "Star Wars" at Disney+; "The Witcher" and "Stranger Things" at Netflix; and "The Wheel of Time" and "The Boys" at Amazon.

Below is every DC Comics movie and TV show in the works for Max:
