The LEGO DC Extended Universe (DCEU) theme consists of LEGO sets that are directly inspired by the live-action films of the DCEU. Starting in the 2010s, the DCEU began to launch a series of interconnected superhero films, such as Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Wonder Woman, Justice League, Aquaman, and others. These LEGO sets are based on the characters, vehicles, and scenes from these movies and capture key moments from the films.
