Thus far , the on the side titled DC Extended Universe has been for the most part defined by the heavy topics it has attempted to undertake , with much of the response - both positivist and electronegative - wall its achiever at delivering on those theme . Man of Steelhas clear themes ofimmigration and a battle for ethnic identity;Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justiceaddresses PTSD , military interventions , xenophobia , and a restoration of hope;Suidice Squadtackles mental malady , doubt of ethics , and the bail bond of family ; andWonder Womanselflessness , empathy , and pity , even for those who do n’t seem to deserve it .

During theJustice Leaguepress Junket in London , the stamp accept the chance to chime in on lessons they go for the world can learn fromJustice League , with Gal Gadot starting the group off with a very Wonder Woman - esque reply :

" In the real world we do n’t oppose lusus naturae . We do n’t have outlander attack . It ’s us creatingthe problem . And I think it would be wondrous if somehow us humans could get together and get together and just be and do goodness to each other and endeavor to make the world a serious post . I ’m collapse you a cheesy answer , right back at ya , but I mean it from the botton of my heart . "

Ezra Miller does n’t shy away from the serious topic , saying he think the popularity of superhero movies really means they have a responsibility to address ethnic issues and supply aspirational examples to audience .

" I call back it ’s authoritative to lecture about this , which is that human beings are in an existential crisis and there ’s no warrant that human beings will be here in 100 age or 200 years because we are facing real existential threats , and like Gal pronounce , menace come from us , like , we ’ve create clime change , we ’ve created the threat of atomic war , and we do have to overwhelm differences in fiat to get over that , otherwise it ’s game over on humanity , so I think it ’s a heavy time to make superhero movies and groups of superhero picture and actually set off addressing in more meaningful and solid ways , but also in the existence of fancy and fable how we ’re actually going to accelerate our process and relieve our skin .
