After two editions of the DC FanDome (and despite the success achieved), Warner Bros. Discovery has decided to cancel the virtual DC fan event of 2022. This type of online convention was first unveiled in 2020 with the pandemic, to make up for the lack of Comic-Con due to COVID-19. Since DC would have little presence at Comic-Con this year with only panels of “Shazam! Wrath of the Gods” and “Black Adam”, it was assumed that they would launch the rest of the announcements and presentations again at their own event. , but no, the company has other plans.
DC Entertainment confirmed the cancellation of DC FanDome 2022 with a brief statement justifying it “With the return of events in person, Warner Bros. Discovery is thrilled to be able to interact with our live fans to numerous Comic-Cons around the world and DC will not plan the FanDome for 2022. “ In other editions, for example, the first images of James Gunn’s ‘The Suicide Squad’, of ‘The Batman’ with Robert Pattinson or trailers like ‘Wonder Woman 1984’ were presented, so this year’s edition was very waiting considering the drama surrounding the cancellations and delays of DC previews and the mysterious ten-year restructuring plan that David Zaslav, the company’s CEO, wants to carry out.
the great disappointments
Looking at the latest changes that Warner Bros. Discovery has applied to its release schedule, we find the cancellation of “Batgirl” and the delays of “Aquaman 2” and “Shazam: Fury of the Gods”. On the other hand, there is a huge controversy surrounding two of its main actors: Ezra Miller for ‘The Flash’ and Amber Heard; and Walter Hamada’s departure from the company is imminent. Furthermore, there is a lot of uncertainty about the future of series like “Doom Patrol” and “Stargirl” and the likely end of the Arrowverse is near. Among the few good news that we find in the future of Warner Bros. we have the renewals of ‘Harley Quinn’ and ‘Sandman’, the jump to the cinema of ‘House Party’ and ‘Evil Dead Rise’ and the return of ‘The Nun’ with a sequel.
