Sounds like we can count JusticeLeagueDark among the many scrapped projects by Warner Bros. Discovery
The long-gestating Justice League Dark series from filmmaker J.J. Abrams is reportedly scrapped. There was once a time when J.J. Abrams was going to oversee a Justice League Dark franchise at HBO Max, with several series and movies in various stages of development that would tie back to each other. Justice League Dark would have been the culmination of these projects, bringing DC's supernatural heroes together to form their own dark version of the Justice League.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Justice League Dark has been scrapped, along with another J.J. Abrams project, Overlook, a spinoff of The Shining. Abrams' Bad Robot production company signed an overall deal with the former WarnerMedia in 2019, though no projects under the deal have surfaced just yet. However, Abrams and HBO Max did announce that the 1970s drama Duster starring Josh Holloway and Rachel Hilson has been picked up.
J.J. Abrams' Justice League Dark PlansOne of J.J. Abrams' series connected to Justice League Dark was going to be Madame X, which would have followed the exploits of DC Universe mystic Madame Xanadu. Played by Jeryl Prescott in Swamp Thing, this project would have marked Madame Xanadu's first broad exposure in live action. Madame Xanadu is one of the DC Universe's most powerful mystics, but is generally used as a supporting character, serving roles ancillary to bigger names.
