Among the ten DC Cinematic Universe ventures scheduled to be released until 2020, Justice League "“ Part One and Part Two are the biggest names "“ just like The Avengers movies are the biggest ones in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It isn't anything new to us that movies belonging to the same cinematic universe are interconnected to some level – so it shouldn't be surprising at all if DC Cinematic Universe ventures are consistent to each other.
Words from the director of Man of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, Zack Snyder, published recently on the latest issue of Empire Magazine offer us a better understanding to the nature of the connections among the upcoming DC movies. According to Zack, it is the Justice League that is at the centre and all other the other solo movies are placed with a direct connection to the event. Here's what he said (via ComicBookMovie):
"What we are doing is ground up all the way. It is one giant story. The first thing we had was the Justice League concept. The other movies, in a way, have to support that. That is our Wonder Woman, our Aquaman. They have their own creative concepts that supports them, but they do serve Justice League in the coming together of those heroes."
