If not Justice League Dark then maybe Seven Soldiers of Victory or Demon Knights? Very unlikely though...

Del Toro has about a billion projects he wants to do, including JLA Dark. And now he is going to do Pac Rim 2... I would prefer he do Hellboy III!
THEN, do an awesome Justice League Dark and maybe even tie it into the "Constantine" TV series.
Alas, he has talked about so many awesome things he wants to do, but they never seem to get done... he's got a lot of stuff going on, so I think it will be awhile, if ever, before we get a JL Dark (from Del Toro, at least. Maybe they do like Wright and Ant-Man and put someone else on it...)Comment

Del Toro's latest update on JLD:
"Right now the plans are to make it a feature. We are deep in the screenplay writing phase. I think we see eye to eye (Warners and DC and myself) on what the movie is and I think it will serve really well as a movie."
"The ideal form is to develop the movie. The only thing I made clear to them (the Constantine TV show) is that the TV series will not affect the movie and they said that's okay. Now if we see the TV series and we can mesh with it or cast the same actor depending on where the movie is going then I would be happy to consider (meshing with the show)."
"We came in and I tried 2 or 3 different structures for the screenplay. I wrote a 75 page template for the universe... that takes a year... We needed to create a new story. Then we need to go to a screenplay writer. One draft takes between 6 and 8 months. It really takes a while."

Fans have been wondering about the future of Guillermo del Toro's cinematic adaptation of the DC Comics series Justice League: Dark, since the project wasn't included in Warner Bros.' announcement last month of their upcoming slate of superhero movies. The movie, tentatively titled Dark Universe, has been confirmed as a [...]

Guillermo del Toro talks The Strain season 2, what he's planning to direct himself, the reception of season 1, Dark Universe, Frankenstein, and more
In an interview with Collider Guillermo del Toro briefly talks about Dark Universe.
Before we wrap up, I was hoping to get your opinion on something I’ve been writing about a lot lately. There’s so much talk about shared cinematic universes right now. I just wrote about something James Gunn posted on Facebook where he calls it putting the cart before the horse and a bad business model. During the Crimson Peak set visit you mentioned that you spoke to Donna Langley about possibly doing Frankenstein and that’s part of the Universal monster movie shared universe, so I was wondering what your take on it is?
DEL TORO: I haven’t followed up with Frankenstein so I really have very little to add to that. Right now the only sort of shared universe project I’m working on is Dark Universe for Warners, you know, for DC, which is Swamp Thing, Demon, Deadman, Zatanna. It’s a very different universe. As to the plans to the other one, I wish I had an inside track right now.Comment

Guillermo Del Toro revealed why he left the project.
“Warners liked the script, they were very enthusiastic and wanted to green-light it but they wanted it to coincide with the shoot of Pacific Rim 2,” del toro told Daily Beast. “I was put in a very difficult place facing a difficult choice, and I chose to do Pacific Rim 2.”Comment

Isn't Pacific Rim 2 a Warner's project?
This is an unfortunate turn of events, Dark Universe would have likely been good. Del Toro knows how to make good comic and fantasy films.Comment
