Hey dude,that’s OK. I was joking about the Superfriends refference,LOL!
Well,based on the reports I’ve seen the Superman and Batman featured in JLA are completely seperate versions from the ones seen in previous Superman and Batman films. And they are most certainly casting new actors for the parts of Superman and Batman. The actors rumored to be playing Superman are D.J. Cotrona,Scott Porter,and Josh Duhamel (slim picckens). So outa that crowd you’ve got a guy who’s under 6 ft.(Porter),a guy who,IMO,looks a little hispanic (Cotrona),and a guy who just doesn’t really strike me as Superman (Duhamel),plus,I have NO idea how tall Cotrona and Duhamel are,which has bugged the heck outa me! Oh,yeah,and an actor named Andy Whitfield was supposedly rumored to have been cast as Superman too. For Batman it sounds as though 21 year old unknown actor Armie Hammer has nabbed the role,not a bad choice,IMO,but the guy is 6′ 5′ (supposedly),which is actually taller than the actual character Batman (who is 6′ 2′). Superman is 6′ 4′ in the comix,and the guy playing Superman in JLA needs to be at least 6′ 3′,especially if the guy playing Batman is 6′ 5′! They could always make the soles (right word?) in Superman’s boots thicker,but then you still have to deal with the 6′ 5′ dude playing Batman who’s sure to have a cowl with at least 2 inch long ears. It all seems a bit glum,IMO right now. And I REALLY wanted to see this movie,what I read of the script was great,but the film could be ruined by the wrong casting. It would also ruin a dream that’s been mine since childhood,a JLA movie.
Oh,as for the rest of the cast,it sounds like we’ve got:
Adam Brody as Flash (not 100% sure which Flash,cuz both Barry Allen and Wally West/Kid Flash are in the movie,supposedly Barry is the Flash for the greater part of the film and Wally becomes Flash at the end cuz Barry dies {I’m extremely happy that they chose to use Barry Allen as Flash,he’s the best Flash in every sense of the word,IMO,and gets no fair treatment in the comix these days})
Common as Green Lantern (John Stewart,the african american GL,not the Hal Jordan GL that everyone,myself included,seems to like best)
Megan Gale as Wonder Woman
No word yet on who will play the Martian Manhunter,but according to superherohype.com Santiago Cabrera has been cast as Aquaman.
I hope that helped some,steve. Oh,and you can feel free to make as many Superfriends refferences you want,that show is just sorta infamous when it comes to the JLA,LOL!
Thanks Kel!
Wow I’m surprised there going that way casting wise.
Casting for Batman and Superman should be a main priority for those two and it looks well, kinda lame. I hate to see a possible train wreck before it happens.

Thanks for all the info… Certainly cleared things up for me and I’m sure a few other readers too.

They should turn the Marvel comic storyline “Civil War” into a film.
That would be a huge hit if done right with the original actors allready cast,..
Main problem there would be the length. To squeeze that much content from so many different characters would be a tough one…But I sure as hell would love to see it! Shame Iron Man kinda gets painted as an arsehole though…Poor Iron Man.
Hirogen, they could make it the sequel to IRONMAN how cool would that be.
Shoot CIVIL WAR in 3 parts all at once. It could show Ironmans point of view and how he got screwed.
^
Also by that point there should be a sequel to CIVIL WAR and the resurrection of Cap America??
^
If DC is going to do a JLA film Marvel should do Civil War.
Or they could just do what they have said they want to do, The Avengers. Either way they can do the right thing and use RDJ and Edward Norton and whoever else they cast for future Marvel movies and I feel make it more “Proper” than what I have heard of the JLA movie. I do however like your ideas of combining a few different movies/sequels to form a Civil War storyline, very nice indeed.
Ack. I wouldn’t want to see the Civil War storyline on the big screen. Too depressing and too complex to fit into one film.
Vic
With you, Vic. Even thought seeing superheros combating in live action would be cool, Civil War was way too depressing and long. Looking forward to maybe a total enraged Hulk taking on the rest of the Avengers(IM,Cap,Thor,Wasp,Antman)and S.H.I.E.L.D. with massive destruction. Now that should happen in the Avengers movie!
This comment is a little behind….
KEL, you stated:
“Transformers wasn’t that big a thing,and neither were X-Men,and both emerged as box office successes. Heck,even Spider-Man wasn’t that popular a character,and it’s the biggest superhero movie of all time!”
I’ll trump you the Transformer’s statement, but what are you talking about with the others?? FYI… X-men and Spiderman and Fantastic 4 have been Marvel’s best selling comics since their inductions!!
Iron Man is NOT as well known as them, or Superman, or Batman. BUT I’m willing to bet that it is at least as well known as Transformers was and I think it will gain a ton of momentum and earn a lot of attention, and still be a block buster, probably bigger than TDK (I think TDK has hurt itself with a more gruesome Joker).
No,no,no dude,you misunderstood me. I meant to the mainstream movie audience,you know,the non comic book people are unfamiliar with Iron Man. I mean,anyone reading comix has defanitely heard of Iron Man,Fantastic 4 and X-Men,cuz,as you mentioned Alca,they’re some of comicdom’s best selling titles since their introduction,which is why they’re getting big budget movies now days. Sorry you had to type all that out,I know that’s always a pain in the ass,typing what someone else said,but I don’t think there’s a quote button tho (looks at Vic suggestively
. And I agree,Alca,IM will probably out-perform Dark Knight for a number of reasons,one of wich is they kind of hurt themselves by making the Joker so DISGUISTING looking,with the cut face and stuff,it reminds me of what Burton did to the Penguin in Batman Returns,which is part of why the movie was the second least grossing Batman film of all time. Batman Returns wasn’t really a Batman movie anyway,it was more of a Tim Burton movie with Batman in its title if you think about it,Batman and Batman Begins were Batman movies though.
Steve Adams: Civil War would be cool,but it would be impossible to make,IMO,anyway (an animated or CG animated flick like the PIXAR stuff would be neat tho),and to be honest,I don’t think I could take another “let’s make Iron Man a ‘facist’ ass” thing,that’s why I’m glad that the IM film will be seperate from the current comix,we can see more of the classic Tony that we all know and love that way,and I don’t think I could take another Captain America death (loved that character),and besides,I think the closest thing Marvel’s got to an equivelant of DC’s JLA film would be their Avengers flick (which I’m anxiously awaiting).
I’m glad the info I provided was some help,Steve,did you look up the pictures of the actors (bear with me,I just wanted to see some of what might be playing my favorite heroes) and actresses on Google Images like I did? The 14 page script summary that I read from UGO.com sounded pretty good,I’m just worried about the casting. I hope that when WB announces the cast they will pleasantly surprise us and put to death some of these nightmare rumors of short dudes playing Superman and stuff. If they screw this movie up,it will ruin the JLA and some of the characters for years,and no one will touch the team or any DC characters other than Superman and Batman for decades.
Oh yeah,Steve Adams,did I mention that the rumored runtime for JLA is
only 90 MINUTES?!! I’m REALLY MAD about that,I think out of everything bad I’ve heard about the film so far that’s the thing that’s got me ticked the most! Can you believe that?! A movie like that should run AT LEAST 2 hours and 15 minutes!!
Yea 90 min is short for a film with all those characters.
Also Kel I’ll try to check out those pics later..
^
This JLA films really sounds like a disaster…!
^
Also
I guess from alot of the posts an Avengers film would be better than a civil war film/s.
I could go for that!!! Avengers I’m sure would really make this JLA film look bad, (I’m hoping we get to see it!)!!
^
Thanks again Kel for all the great info!!
Hey,anytime dude! Also,I just checked out the pictures cuz I’m a JLA freak,you don’t have to or anything,I was just saying that’s what I did.
Vic and the other good folks here at screenrant.com post a lot of JLA movie news here at the site,and what you don’t find here you can ususally find at supermanhomepage.com,superherohype.com,batman-on-film.com,voicesfromkrypton.com,IESB.net,and slashfilm.com. I can’t seem to get enough of what’s going on with the project,so I’m constantly searching EVERYWHERE for more news.
Crap. I think I just turned this into the JLA movie thread. :-0
Haha Kel, we’ll I enjoyed the JLA info even if it wasn’t too incouraging…
^
=€
LOL! I’m glad I could be of service,Steve.
I’m kinda bummed the Mandarin won’t be a major threat, at least at first. The Iron Monger is an okay villain, though. Who knows? I’d like to possibly see the Crimson Dynamo in a possible sequel.
Oh man.. haven’t visited Screenrant in the past week and BOY, did I regret missing this!!!
The armor.. gosh.. THE ARMOR!!! It looks brilliant at this point!!! I sure hope the story is worth a damn and the effects are grounded in reality and not a stupid CGI orgy whereby the graphics designers are doing CGI scenes for the sake of doing CGI scenes (like those Star Wars Episode 1-3 flicks).
By the way, the armor isn’t really a replica of what’s currently in the comics.. the one in the comics right now (the Extremis armor) has a triangular/pentagonal unibeam and a much more different helmet. The arms and legs are less ‘busy’ too.
Nevertheless, I can’t wait to catch the movie..
Have you guys seen the IM action figures? Very nice!!! A great look of the Mongel and Mark 2. Should visited Advanced Iron.org or the IM myspace group.
