This is awesome.

[Kevin Smith]

Mike Vogel isn't a bad choice for Barry based on looks. He looks like him. Good casting.

Nice, but i like Colin Salmon for Martian Manhunter


Ryan Reynolds for Green Lanter


Jaimie Alexander for Wonder Woman


Abbie Cornish for black Canary

[Midnight Black]

I step away for awhile and come back and am pleased with some of the suggestions being tossed around. I like Mike Vogel for Flash too!

Thought he would have made a nice Cpt. Kirk, but am glad they went with Pine. Vogel definitely belongs in a superhero film though.

Saw Mama this weekend and definitely think that Nikolaj Coster-Waldau would make a good Aquaman or even Batman if his hair is dyed. He's got the look.

Also, like Colin Salmon for MM, and suggested him earlier too.

Jeffrey Wright - Martian Manhunter



Matthew McConaughey - Aquaman

I have to say it again but this is the best Justice League cast Ive seen in a long time. I really hope this comes to fruition. Mike Vogel as Flash? Genius. Jeffrey Wright as Martian Manhunter? Inspired. I like all these choices, except for Cornish, I realize she could do the role, I just would prefer someone else.. As far as McConaughey as Aquaman goes, that makes a lot of sense, he just had a comeback, and he could definitely look like and pull off the role. He just comes off as a cocky douche in real life

[Midnight Black]

My WW Suggestions:

Yuliya Snigir
Michelle Borth
Hayley Atwell
Tanit Phoenix
Jessica Pare
Meghan Ory
Rhona Mitra
Serinda Swan
Bridget Regan
Taylor Cole
Amber Heard
Tsianina Joelson
Jodi Lyn O'keefe
Susan Ward
Jenna Dewan-Tatum
Kim Smith
Janet Montgomery
Alexis Knapp

Cocky Douche??? McConaughey seems like one of the nicest sincere people in Hollywood lol....then again don't know if that says much lol. He does seem like a cool guy though.

However I would switch Cornish out with one of the suggestions from the list and replace Matthew with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. Also maybe switch Wright with Salmon, but he is good and the choice is inspired. Can David Oyelowo do an American accent? Is he British or African national? David is also on my list for Black Panther.

Seriously though, the only ones I'd be okay with on that list are Amber Heard and Hayley Atwell.

And yes I think McConaughey is a cocky douche because it seems like hes full of himself and thinks hes really attractive in interviews.

Oyelowo as Green Lantern is so awesome.

I wouldnt switch out Colin Salmon for Jeffrey Wright, theres a reason Salmon is a tv actor and Wright is a film actor, Jeffrey is a much stronger actor. I like his kind voice for Martian Manhunter too. MM should definitely have a kind, calming voice.

I agree with Midnight Black, Id do the same thing with switching Coster-Waldau out for McConaughey, Coster-Waldau as Aquaman sounds awesome to me, much better than McConaughey. Plus hes already played regal before and he was damn good at it. i dont know how much Id buy McConaughey as the king of the ocean honestly

How about Jennifer Lawrence.

[Denny67]

Superman – Henry Cavill


Batman – Jake Gyllenhaal


Wonder Woman – Gemma Arterton


Flash – Justin Timberlake



Green Lantern (John Stewart) – Idris Elba



Darkseid (CG) Voice - Michael Ironside



I thought it would be cool to give a nod to the animated series like the only thing Transformers did right with Peter Cullen. As far as the heroes, we already know that Arterton and Gyllenhaal have great onscreen chemistry.

Gyllenhaal as Batman would be alright with me

No, but seeing him with mascara and lipstick is scary enough. But he would be a terrific Granny Goodness.

From what I've read online. I guess Jake Gyllenhaal was David Goyer's first choice to play Batman, but Christopher Nolan wanted Christian Bale. I guess Bale's role in Equilibrium left am impression. Still for Justice League, we could do worse than casting the guy to play Batman that guy who wrote the movies was picturing in his head while scribing them.

Actually many of them can act. Also it depends on the script and direction they are given. Many of the actresses are still growing and lets be honest I don't think WW will be winning any oscars in the best film, drama or actress department given the track record of action/superhero films.

Honestly Amber Heard is a fan favorite, but she would be wrong for WW, given that Diana is exotic very womanly and has a regal yet innocent sense about her.

Colin Salmon is a film and television actor and his acting is quite fine, so no there is no a reason that he is a tv actor. He just takes work where it comes.

McConaughey seems quite humble in every interview I've seen him in. Confident maybe, but humble no less. Compared to other hollywood actors he seems to be a man's man and more down to earth, laid back and not afraid to let loose. However, that's just my opinion and everyone is entitled to them.

I think Jennifer Lawrence would be good in anything she is in; however, she doesn't look like WW to me.

I can't wait to see A Good Day to Die Hard to see how well Yuliya does. I think she looks the most like WW, from the pics I've seen.

[Project862006]

my cast

Henry Cavill - Superman

Gemma Arteton - Wonder Woman


Luke Evans - Batman


Ryan Reynolds - Green Lantern


Bradley Cooper - The Flash

[Rocanrol]

Nathan Fillon as GL. Enough said.

[Eddie Dean]

I think Nikolaj Coster-Waldau would make a better Green Arrow than Aquaman (although he would be great for both, honestly). He has that roguish charm.

[Kevin Smith]

Never want to see Timberlake anywhere near a DC OR Marvel film EVER.

Like this cast here for JL except for Evans as Bats. Give me Gosling as Bats here and the cast is A+ for the JL film.

Rhona Mitra wouldn't be too bad as WW actually.

Still like Gemma Arterton or Jennifer Lawrence though.
