How many movies are in the DCEU?
The shared DC universe, better known as the DCEU (DC Extended Universe), started shortly after the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) in 2013 with the release of Man of Steel. It includes 15 movies (and 1 TV show) in total and the saga has now officially ended, but Zack Snyder’s work on the DCEU has led fans to call for the restoration of the SnyderVerse to this day. These are the same fans who also launched a successful campaign for Warner Bros. to release Zack Snyder’s Justice League.
How to watch DC movies in chronological order
When watching all the DCEU films, you can either watch them in chronological or release order. This is because Wonder Woman's standalone movies take place decades before she unites with the likes of Batman and Superman. If you want to watch them chronologically, here's how:

How to watch DC movies in release order
However, some fans still prefer to watch DC movies in release order. This is because connectivity was one of the significant struggles of the DC shared universe. While the early films like Man of Steel, Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Justice League are closely related, the connections trailed off towards the end of the DCEU. Later films like Shazam!, Aquaman, and Birds of Prey function largely as standalone films even if they technically exist within the same shared universe. Below is a complete list of the DCEU movies in release order and where to watch them online.
