10 Intriguing DC Movies That Were Never Made

Currently, we're seeing more comic book movies being produced than ever before – but there are still an enormous amount that have slipped through the net over the years and failed to get made. For instance, because starring as Green Lantern and Deadpool clearly isn’t enough superhero roles for one man, Ryan Reynolds was also at one point set to play The Flash in a movie based on a David Goyer script. After years in development hell, The Flash movie is now about to be made as part of the DC Extended Universe, though with Ezra Miller in the role of Barry Allen.

While Stephen Amell has made the role his own in TV show Arrow, the character of Green Arrow has yet to make his way to the big screen – something which doesn’t look to change soon, as the character is not set to appear in the upcoming Justice League films. However, if things had turned out differently we could have had a Green Arrow movie back in the 00s.

The film would have been a fresh take on the superhero movie, too. In a script written by David Goyer and Justin Marks, the plot was to see Green Arrow framed for murder and imprisoned in top-security facility Super Max, alongside various B and C-level DC villains. That said, such big-hitters as the Riddler, Lex Luthor and the Joker were set to make cameo appearances.

As it shares some similarities with the likes of the upcoming Suicide Squad, this might be another film that could have come to something nowadays, but was just mooted at the wrong time.
