Studio thinks the actors attached will carry the universe.
And Sofia Boutella is on a damn roll. She's in everything now.

it's part of marketing for the first film
announce the universe so it gets some publicity and maybe those who didn't even know the movie is coming out in 3 weeks might check it out and those on the fence be pushed to now checking out that it's building to something bigger

We've known about this shared universe for over a year now tho, and so far, from what I have seen in the trailer and the casting, they have the right idea, now hopefully they follow thru with the right execution.
My first question, already, why Bride would be the second film, and not something around Crowe or Depp, Bardem, etc. That surprises me, honestly.
I also wonder, given the shared nature, do they follow the trend of after credit scenes to lead into the next film?
Either way, really lookin forward to the Mummy in 3 weeks, loved the first two Frasier films, but not sure if they hold up today. Watched The Mummy Returns last night and my wife started laughing when the Scorpion King came out at the end, it was pretty bad.

Plenty of us here know but I wouldn't be surprised if the general public has no idea about the shared universe. Even the Depp and Bardem casting were rumors.
But now they have officially confirmed those names (minus Jolie) and even have an official website (darkuniverse.com) so more people are put on notice.
Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of young audience today might not even know the history of Universal Monsters, they probably just know vampires and werewolves from Twilight :x

I bet they'll do the Uncharted series like Harry Potter
Start with the actor while he's young; we see him age until the final movie
Start with Holland at about age 20, maybe end in his 30s

I don't think it matters either way.
The movie will either be a hit or it won't.

People will probably be wondering why jack reacher is fighting a mummy now. CBG19 said it would've been a nice change if they made cruise the mummy / villain. Basically get a break from him saving the day again.

More like trying to figure out how impossible is Ethan Hunt's mission this time around.

Him and Val Kilmer fighting the mummy in fighter jets would get me to watch.

I'm down for a Resident Evil reboot if they stay faithful and don't pull any more of that made up character nonsense. We need a legit bad *** Chris Redfield.
When I first heard RE reboot, I mentally checked out, but then I saw James Wan's name. Wan has been successful with horror and action flicks. So this might be the perfect situation. But video game movies are also cursed.

Producing is never the same thing as directing.
Any time a movie has the tag line of "From the producers that brought you...." that **** is a red herring.
Majority of producers that produced classics usually have at least 2-3 stinkers just due to the sheer volume of movies they help produce.
James Wan executive produced all of the Saw movies but the first one
He's a good up and coming director with a strong resume of films he's directed but even Nolan produced BvS: Dawn of Justice :x

JL Dark is firmly in the hands of Doug Liman for the time being with Del Toro "producing".

Nolan got some bad producing titles, can't forget transcendence
I'd rather see liman on some of the other DC stuff
