As the movie business gears up again, there’s lots of geek showbiz news, which we round up here.

After taking in another $66 million in the U.S. and $66.6 million in international markets over the weekend, box office for The Batman is approaching $500 million worldwide, a mark that only four Hollywood movies have hit in the Covid era, according to Variety. The take to date is $463 million, after a big start last weekend (see "’The Batman’ Tops Friday B.O.").

Warner Bros. has moved the dates for five upcoming DC movies, primarily due to Covid-related production delays, according to Deadline.

• DC League of Super-Pets from May 20 to July 29
• Black Adam from July 29 to October 21, 2022
• The Flash from November 4, 2022 to June 23, 2023
• Aquaman from December 16, 2022 to March 17, 2023
• Shazam! Fury of the Gods from June 2, 2023 to December 16, 2022

The schedule changes ease up on the 2022 schedule and move a major release to 2023 (see our Geek Movie Calendars for 2022 and 2023).
