How to Watch DC Movies in Chronological Order

Although many more films include DC characters, the DCEU is an interconnected series involving popular DC universe heroes. They began in 2010 with Man of Steel, and each movie within the DCEU is connected. So, there is a chronological order in which you can watch them.

These are all movies of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and do not include standalone movies or series such as Joker, The Dark Knight, or animated DC movies or shows.

If you want to see the DC movies in the order of events within the actual DC universe, you’ll want to follow this list.
