Suicide Squad also features some pre-Man of Steel flashbacks to Bruce Wayne's early crusading in Gotham. Some of Justice League, for example, clearly overlaps with Aquaman. If you want to get even more granular, you can queue up certain scenes to watch in chronological order – but it could get messy. Our advice? Leave it until the end, but in the knowledge that some of its scenes come during Superman's solo adventure on a completely different timeline. But it also exists on a completely separate timeline. It technically takes place after the events of Justice League but, without going into spoilers, can also be watched concurrently with Man of Steel. Yep, the Scarlet Speedster is in danger of blowing up the entire DC watch order.

Atlantis doesn’t exactly have underwater calendars in every scene.Įven if the years aren’t nailed down beyond Wonder Woman’s entries, there is an agreed-upon chronological order thanks to some Easter eggs (such as a 'Superman is back!' poster in Shazam! and Harley Quinn’s Birds of Prey break-up with Joker) that keeps things relatively simple.

Here’s how to watch DC movies in release order, discounting the movies that haven’t yet been released. We'll get to the thorny issue of the DCU in just a bit.

But that's not something we need to worry about right now. In terms of current releases, Blue Beetle is the latest DC movie, with a new universe under the stewardship of James Gunn and Peter Safran (the DCU) set to begin in 2025 with Superman: Legacy. Best of all, the already-released DC movies mentioned below can, for the most part, be watched right now on Max. For simplicity’s sake, we’re sticking to everything released under the DC banner, though Joker and The Batman are completely standalone stories in their own universe away from the DCEU (more on that below).Īs for the Snyder Cut, we recommend watching the 2017 Justice League for 'canon' purposes, but Zack Snyder's 2021 version for a different and more definitive take on some of your favorite characters – plus, it's a superior movie (only it's four hours long.).
