Immerse yourself in the action-packed thrills of DC at the movies in one spectacular book. From the trailblazing 1940s movie serials that first put Batman and Superman on the silver screen to the Caped Crusader's swinging 1960s escapades and the iconic 1970s Superman, to the state-of-the-art 21st-century reinventions of the Dark Knight, the Man of Steel, and Wonder Woman, this book provides an indispensable guided tour of DC cinema history.
See how DC's characters, locations, costumes, and weapons have been adapted from page to screen and evolved over the decades. Witness some of the world's finest actors, such as Academy Award winners Marlon Brando, Jack Nicholson, Christian Bale, Nicole Kidman, Joaquin Phoenix, Viola Davis, and others, transform into the Super Heroes, Super-Villains, and supporting cast for their times.
Go behind the scenes and discover little-known facts while poring over stunning movie stills, character and set designs, and storyboards. All this, alongside engaging text that provides insights into DC's rich cinematic legacy, makes this the book that every DC film fan has been waiting for!
DC Cinematic Universe by Nick Jones and Stephen Wiacek will take you on a captivating journey through the evolution of DC's presence in film.
