Now its official.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For years the DC movie franchises had set a different tone to their counterparts of the \u2018MCU\u2019, but Warner Bros. never officially made a connected universe title. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enter HBO Max and AT&amp;T. Launching today, the new streaming juggernaut seems to be backing their ace up their sleeve in <em>Zack Snyder\u2019s Justice League<\/em>, and Snyder\u2019s vision that he set off to do from the get go. AT&amp;T\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ATT?s=20\">Twitter<\/a> has also been teasing David Ayer\u2019s cut of <em>Suicide Squad<\/em> recently, needless to say, that has garnered more excitement as each day goes by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/ATT\/status\/1263628506048708608?s=20\n<\/div><figcaption>AT&amp;T\u2019s Twitter <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both of these director\u2019s cuts, when and if released (respectively), will cater to what the \u2018DCEU\u2019 was aiming for. A more gritty and real feel that would have seen our heroes on the road to redemption. DC sequels in production like <em>Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Shazam!<\/em> Are considered to be included in the \u2018DCEU\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through the HBO Max app, under \u2019Blockbuster Franchises\u2019 is where you will find the <strong>DC Extended Universe<\/strong>. DC films currently under the \u2018DCEU\u2019 on HBO <em>Max include Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad (2016), Wonder Woman, Justice League, Aquaman, and Shazam!  <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With HBO Max officially using the <strong>DC Extended Universe<\/strong> label for the \u201c<em>Snyderverse<\/em>\u201d, and with our heroes yet to see the redemption that was planned, may we see more out of \u2018DCEU\u2019 on HBO Max? Time will tell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hbomax.com\/\">HBO Max<\/a> is a streaming service that launched with over 10,000 hours of content. For $14.99 a month, you will have access to all things under the AT&amp;T and WarnerMedia umbrella.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s official!
