Eartha Kitt Passes On

DC Comics Movies News

There has been some really interesting news involving movies featuring characters from DC Comics. Here's a quick rundown of the news:

Joss Whedon is no longer directing or writing with Wonder Woman. Supposedly, this happened a day after Warner Brothers bought a second script. Whedon had the movie set in modern day while the second script was set during World War II.

David S. Goyer's version of The Flash is dead. His script featured Wally West and Barry Allen. Shawn Levy is now set to direct the movie.

Katie Holmes will not be in the sequel to Batman Begins called The Dark Knight. Somebody else will be cast as Rachael Dawes. Rumor has it that Heather McAdams has been asked to make an appearance as Selina "Catwoman" Kyle. Aaron Eckhart is in the running to play Harvey "Two-Face" Dent.
