We’ve got some great news to share, Netflix Lifers. In a surprise move, Netflix has acquired the streaming rights to many superhero films from the DC Extended Universe! And they’re all dropping on the streamer in December 2023.

We definitely didn’t see this coming. Netflix hadn’t said a word until now about DC movies coming to the platform. But honestly, the streamer was in need of some more superhero content. After Disney came through and took all of its Marvel shows off of Netflix in 2022, the streamer barely had any superhero content on its platform.

Now, this upcoming December, we’ll have much to watch and enjoy. Below, you’ll find a list of all the superhero movies from the DC Extended Universe that are scheduled to land on Netflix in December 2023.

Which DC movies are coming to Netflix?

It’s worth mentioning that all the DC movies landing on Netflix soon will still be available to stream on Max, formerly HBO Max.
