Yea most of the guys rumored for roles are mid/late 20s but most of them don really look like. Hopefully we are happy once we get the official cast.

I think Baruchel looks the youngest. I mean, glaringly so. Everybody else - even Hammer - isn't so bad. Hammer doesn't really *look* that young to me. I dunno... maybe I've just gotten used to him. LOL

I actually dont like Alex Ross's stuff, everybody looks weird and cheesy, plus the colors are dull. everybody looks old too, not to mention his wonder woman looks so not beautiful. but thats just my opinion

 

[Webhead2006]

to each his own.

 

[az824]

i guess so

 

[Majik1387]

Wow! haven't been here in a few days and this is what I miss................................................................nothing.




Dang it Jake Cassidy! this is all your fault! I know you wasn't here either but I have to blame someone and I refuse to look in the mirror and blame myself.

Ross, whilst good, tends to make his characters have similar facial features.

 

[I Am The Knight]

You mean the "truck driver" effect?

The cast of the “Justice League” – expected to include Teresa Palmer, Common, Armie Hammer, Adam Brody and Zoe Kazan – were expected to be announced a couple of months back. What happened? Nobody knows – some say the film’s script is in dire need of a re-write but those tweaks on hold until they can legally do so. Meantime, the Australian arm of casting are apparently still seeing actors for some of the - I’m guessing lesser? – roles.

LOL. Actually, I wasn't being entirely serious with that comment. I was pretty disappointed after I first saw Spider-Man 3(especially since I loved the first 2). However, I received the movie as a gift this Xmas, and I have watched it a couple of more times, and I must say, the movie is definitely growing on me. Still too convoluted and too many wtf moments but its decent overall.

I was being serious.

Justice League of America has Been Delayed!

Justice League of America will not start shooting as originally planned.
I get the emails daily from our readers asking what is going on with JLA, yes there has been an incredible amounts of delays and there wasn’t much of answer coming from our sources, until today.

There hadn’t been much of a slowdown as preparations were still underway over at Australia's Fox Studios as artists, set designers and other crew were busy prepping the film before the Holiday break but why hasn’t the cast been officially announced?

“Justice League is indeed in danger of not starting production on time and maybe even getting scrapped altogether” is what a studio source told the IESB last week. "The concerns are that the script is not ready to go in front of cameras, and also that the budget is getting a bit out of control, the WGA strike has proven to be Kryptonite to Superman and friends."


http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=4059&Itemid=99

So while the cast is apparently locked, the studio has had to go back to the actors and extend their holds. IESB was told that at least two high level studio execs headed to Australia right before Christmas to try to resolve these issues and get the film get back on schedule.

“George Miller really wants this movie to be way big but the cast is 100% unknowns,” our source continues.

Another problem we are hearing is that some upper level execs including the new big boss Jeff Robinov is not too sure if the timing is right for JLA. Most of it has to do with the Nolan camp not being happy with the decision of moving forward with the JLA film considering the positive buzz surrounding The Dark Knight.

So what is going to happen? “The cast for Justice League is mediocre, the execs know it's mediocre, it's going to go down to wire on this one, this movie cold be huge but right now it's plagued with a couple of big issues and the WGA strike isn’t making things easier,” our source tell us.

So what's the final verdict on Justice League? I was having dinner this evening when I got a call from one of our moles over at Warner Bros. who told us, "Justice League has been pushed back to at least April or May and possibly a start date as late as June or July…that is of course if the movie doesn't get scrapped altogether."

So there you go, our first update of JLA of the year. On a side note, I was really pumped for this film last year but now I am waiting eagerly for the day WB decides to go in a different direction and cancels this production.

This cast does not inspire anyone and really makes you wonder if Warner Bros. is that desperate for cash that they would be willing to risk destroying a franchise in the making. We have all talked about the poor choices for Superman and Batman. Really? "C & D" list actors for the greatest Superheroes that have ever been created? With the exception of Adam Brody, Teresa Palmer and Common this cast sucks 100%. I have one question to everybody over at Warner Bros., how in the name of Zeus' butt hole did Jay Baruchel get cast as Maxwell Lord? Really? I mean, really? Skinny, dorky Jay Baruchel? Don’t get me wrong, he's a great guy and a hilarious actor. He's great in Fanboys as the geeky friend…but Maxwell Lord? Ummm, I don't think so.

I'm done, I want to go slit my wrists the more I think about the **** that studios like to do in this town. It literally boggles the mind, well, what I have left of one.

Uh oh?

Although saddening, hopefully we can have a better film when the strike ends and we can have a revised and ready to shoot screenplay.
