DC seems to be having a lot of shake ups lately. After months long debate over whether or not the solo Batman film, starring the former Director and Writer of the project Ben Affleck, would be included in the DCEU, it was announced that a Joker origin story spin off was under way before announcing that their ill be a Joker and Harley Quinn film. The duo's film will arrive after Suicide Squad 2, featuring both Margot Robie and Jared Leto and led by the creative minds behind NBC's This Is US series. According to THR, DC is planning on diverging from the norm of comic book franchises, mainly the "highly interconnected Marvel universe." Spinoffs can work but having two different actors portray the same character within a small number of years is an odd choice to make. Even though DC is trying to remain different, the constant shifts in schedules of future releases is eventually going to bite them in the box office.
