Im gonna try my luck here. As Maxwell Lord, Michael Weatherly from NCIS:

 

[NoLaNitE007]

Stana Katic for Huntress?

Stana would be a good choice as Huntress......nice!

 

[NoLaNitE007]

She would be an excellent Talia, yes. But she'd make a good Helena too, I think.

I don't think she has the acting chops for Talia. Talia would need to be more complex and a foreign actress would be best IMO. Huntress yes.

 

[Man of Steel]

Im gonna try my luck here. As Maxwell Lord, Michael Weatherly from NCIS:

I actually like him for an older Barry Allen.

 

[bluerayer]

I actually like him for an older Barry Allen.

According to Google Michael Weatherly is 45, that would make his Flash older than Batman(presumably) and quite a bit older than Cavill's Superman. He'd be perfect for Maxwell Lord though, just look at that smiling mug!

Edit: I cant mention Maxwell Lord without mentioning the excellent casting by Rorschach2012: Tom Cruise. Think about that a minute, Cruise as the villain in the Justice League movie? Id see that!

 

[Lobo]

Weatherly would have been an ideal Hal Jordan ten years ago.

Weatherly would have been an ideal Hal Jordan ten years ago.

Agreed.

I like Harrison Ford for Hal myself.

 

[Young Superman]

I like Harrison Ford for Hal myself.

He'd be good too.

P.S can anyone think of someone too play Barry, J'onn, or Arthur, IN AN 80s JLA film? I could not think of anyone too fill those roles..

Val Kilmer as Aquaman? I had him picked for Iceman in an 80/90s version of X-men back in school. Maybe he would have worked as AM?

Oh man, Dolph would have crushed it! Im a huge Dolph fan.
I had him pegged as Colossus in my imaginary X-men movie btw. Furthermore i had Tom Cruise as Cyclops, Harvey Keitel as Wolverine and Rutger Hauer as Magneto. I didnt really think about a director back then but thinking about it now, Ridley Scott could have made a cool X-Men movie.

 

[Eddie Dean]

I'd go with Swayze as Aquaman over Dolph. Point Break style!

I was gonna say that too. Swayze rocked in Point Break. And of course Roadhouse!

 

[regwec]

I often try to think of a use for Joe Manganiello, who people seem to like.

On reading some set-aside issues of Demon Knights, it hit me: Vandal Savage.

 

[Eddie Dean]

He does look like a caveman!

 

[Zionite1]

Travis Fimmel as Hal Jordan.You know this to be true

 

[Harry Dresden]

He looks creepy as ****. Like he might try and rape me.

He is RAGNAR LOTHBROOK.Dont u watch vikings?

 

[Harry Dresden]

I don't.

The only thing I remember him from is the old Tarzan show.

You are missing out dude-vikings is awesome.if you watch the 1st season youll get a very fair idea on why i chose him for Hal

 

[Harry Dresden]

I'll check it out eventually. It's on my watch list.

Colin O'Donughue for Hal Jordan

 

[Jordacar]

Travis Fimmel as Hal Jordan.You know this to be true

He'd be the totally obvs pick for Aquaman if they were going for a straight lift from the comics.
