With a little over a week to go, DC FanDome has officially unveiled the schedule for its upcoming virtual convention. The 24-hour event is basically DC Comics’s own version of Comic-Con right down to star-studded panels for its upcoming blockbusters and a few surprises tucked in as well.

While panels for highly-anticipated films like The Batman starring Robert Pattinson, Black Adam starring The Rock, Wonder Woman 1984, and director James Gunn’s take on The Suicide Squad were expected (along with a healthy focus on breakout shows like Harley Quinn, Doom Patrol, and Stargirl), the DC FanDome schedule had two very interesting series. The first is a slot for a Warner Bros. Games Montreal announcement. While there are no official details as of yet, this announcement is heavily rumored to be a brand new Batman game.

The second high-brow raising entry is a “To Be Announced” panel in the “Hall of Heroes” category, which is where DC FanDome is focusing on its film and TV projects. Could DC Comics drop a surprise film announcement? Fans will have to wait and see.

Here’s a quick rundown of the schedule highlights via DC FanDome (times are Eastern Standard Time):
