Justice League Dark: Apokolips War will reportedly serve as the conclusion of the Justice League animated shared universe, originally launched by Jay Oliva's Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox in 2013. According to ComicBook.com, Justice League Dark: Apokolips War will end the current run in the DC Animated Movie Universe, as the 15th and final film in the continuity, which includes sequels to The Flashpoint Paradox, Son of Batman, and Justice League Dark. However, Warner Bros. Animation will continue to produce animated DC Comics movies, though it's not clear whether they will be independent stories or the start of a new continuity.

Among those reprising their animated characters are Matt Ryan, Jerry O'Connell, and Taissa Farmiga, who anchor the cast as Constantine, Superman and Raven, respectively. This assemble will lead the heroes into humanity's final attack against the film's key villain, Darkseid, who will once again be voiced by Tony Todd. Alongside that trio are the long-running core of Justice League voices, comprising of Jason O'Mara as Batman, Rosario Dawson as Wonder Woman, Shemar Moore as Cyborg, and Christopher Gorham as The Flash, as well as many other returning Justice League Dark and DC voice cast members.

In our review of Justice League Dark, we praised the film for its execution of "the magical team-up concept," saying it "delivers a satisfying supernatural adventure" that "does justice to the main cast of characters by telling their tragic origin stories and showing off their quirky personalities." Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, DC, and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment, Justice League Dark: Apokolips War debuts on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital in spring 2020.
