This chronology is an attempt to provide a viewing order for the DC Cinematic Universe. As of this writing, Man of Steel is the only movie which has been released as part of the new DC Cinematic Universe, although Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy would have been a much better place to start the new continuity.
