JL Casting Call Update

[Showtime]

Uh Huh

 

[Noir]

I spoke to someone who was working on the JL movie in Sydney. She was pretty much working within the production. She had been given a week's notice last week. She said that the list on imdb was correct except for Porter (who is listed as Superman). She didn't want to say anything else about the cast.

It's not much but...

At the time I spoke to her (Friday) she still thought it was delayed, not cancelled and didn't know what was going on, just that she would be working until this Thursday.

Proof?

 

[Lucidious]

I'm not going to post proof only because that person wasn't supposed to say anything. I don't care if you don't believe me but I will just say what I know if anyone cares to believe it.

 

[Lucidious]

Uh Huh

Screw you

 

[Reptile]

still not buyin it

 

[Lucidious]

still not buyin it

That's fine. I guess I can see why. It's disappointing some of you are so rude though. Must be very jaded around here...

It's not like I had that much info. to give (and it's not like I'm going to keep bugging the person for more info) so I didn't think it would make people so touchy.

I had a hard time believing that cast list. I had been hesitant to believe it and there was no way for me to believe it. I had been following JL for months. Then a friend told me they were working on JL. I tried to get them to give me some info. and they finally did by saying what they said. That's all. No big deal.

I'm not sharing to make a name for myself, just trying to sort the truth out. I am not Uncle Bingo or whoever. That's all.

Megan Gale quits catwalk for silver screen

Wendy Caccetta and Claire Davies, STM January 19, 2008 06:00pm



THE international modelling career that began when Megan Gale was a Perth teenager will end next month when she quits the catwalk and sets her sights on conquering the silver screen.
Gale, 32, has finally confirmed the news first revealed by The Sunday Times' Perth Confidential in November that she has been cast as Wonder Woman in George Miller's coming blockbuster, Justice League of America.

"I still can't believe it,'' Gale said. ``I have been infatuated with Wonder Woman since I was a teenager.''

Gale will remain the face of David Jones department stores and will be in Perth for the retailer's autumn-winter collection launch on March 6.

But she will walk her last runway at the show in Melbourne on February 27.
Gale said the decision to quit was made last year.

"It's been on my mind for a couple of years and last August I thought long and hard about it,'' she said.

"This is a big deal for me. Catwalk is the first thing I ever did and it started in Perth, but I decided it was inevitable. At some stage every model has to step off the catwalk.''

Though Gale is considered old in an industry dominated by teenagers, she said her age was not a consideration.

She has been with David Jones for seven years and says her new role as ``brand ambassador'' will include being more involved in the retailer's business.

Meanwhile, she has stepped up her fitness regimen ahead of her Wonder Woman role and will also learn how to fight and wield deadly weapons.

Gale said she had known since October that she had the part in the Warner Bros film, but was sworn to secrecy.

The movie will be directed by Miller, of Happy Feet fame, but the start of filming in Sydney has been delayed by the US writers' strike.

Gale said she was a big fan of American actor Lynda Carter, who donned the gold-plated bustier, knee-high boots and star-spangled bloomers to play Wonder Woman in the 1970s TV series.

"I've been a fan of Wonder Woman since I was a teenager,'' Gale said. ``People used to tell me I looked like Lynda Carter.

"It was always a bit of a fantasy. It was never going to be a reality for me, but it kind of found me and I'm a big believer in fate and destiny.

"Even if the writers' strike goes on forever, for me, the fact that I've been cast as Wonder Woman is enough.''

Five of Perth's hottest young models have been short-listed to join Gale on the catwalk in Sydney.
The elite group will be flown there next month for the David Jones collections launch.

Though the final selection will not be confirmed until later this week, DJ stylist Kelvin Harries revealed his five favourites: Emily Cattermole, Stacey Monaghan, Erin Thomasz, Paris Fontana and Georgi Aberdein.

I'm not going to post proof only because that person wasn't supposed to say anything. I don't care if you don't believe me but I will just say what I know if anyone cares to believe it. I don't usually go around saying I know so and so and I have connections to JL... I usually don't. But I live in Sydney and study and work with people in arts and entertainment. I ran into an old friend who works in the industry who told me they had just lost their job (I had just read that JL production had been delayed) and the conversation inadvertantly turned to what their job was, which was Justice League. They didn't volunteer this info. or brag about it, I asked them, in the off chance that it was for JL.

Screw you

You just didn't post anything that was new. It's all rehashed info we've already seen before. I am not sure how excited you want me to be.

You realize IMDB info is put in there by users right?

I am not asking you to be excited (I actually am not looking for your approval, believe it or not). I was just trying to confirm a bit more info for people still doubting that that was the actual cast list. (Not everyone lives in here, you know.)

And if you didn't notice then I didn't say the entire imdb cast list was right.

I think you're just rude because you're an obnoxious fanboy who spends way too much time here.

 

[DCnightwing23]

I think they should cast nightwing, he would bring alot more depth to the movie, if done well

 

[Majik1387]

They should just go forward with their Teen Titans movie.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

I think they should cast nightwing, he would bring alot more depth to the movie, if done well

that could also show that the movie is far in the future from the current superman and batman films.

 

[Webhead2006]

I think they should cast nightwing, he would bring alot more depth to the movie, if done well

doing a nightwing movie would be alot of issues cause there is so much history with batman and him being robin before and u dont want to skip out on all the history.

 

[DCnightwing23]

Yeah but like have nightwing as like the leader of a new version of the league, and as he's become the new leader, throughout the movie he has flashbacks of batman and superman in their prime in the justice league, and him trying to become what batman and superman stood for. I would be great if they did that. And include new superheroe's like supergirl as one of the main heroe's, and speedy. This would be sort of a teen titans movie, but of course you would also have to put in martian manhunter and green lantern (in there old ages). Like the old justice league members mentoring the new. I think that would be a good idea.

Let know what you think

 

[Orin]

Why should they do a Titans flick with cameos of some Leaguers and call it Justice League, instead of just doing a real Teen Titans Movie? Sorry, but i really don't see any sense in this.

Anyway, as with Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash and Green Lantern Solo-Movies, i think Justice League could be a door-opener for the young successor, too.

 

[Super_Ludacris]

F A Titans film.


Make it a Golden Age set JSA film

 

[NIGHTSWING]

So how much times has to pass before your so called rumored list of heros is no longer the List? I mean with the strike going on it's not like there is going to be alot of work out there for actors! Right? So when ever this thing gets worked out and if the script is ready or some what ready. Do Hammer, Gale, and DJ get to sling right back into there roles? Or will some roles be recast for a better look or fit. I know I saw here just of late that Porter was on a rumored list down under as Superman. Who knows!

Just wondering if your Hammer and have been cast as Batman. Is your job on the line with this delay or do you just set back and wait? Then again what else is there to do.

 

[Mattlocka]

Orlando Bloom as Flash

Jack Weber as MartianManhunter

Monica Kenna as Hawkgirl

Mandy Moore as WonderWoman

Martin Henderson as Batman

Vincent Klyn as Superman

Cirroc Lofton as GreenLantren

This is my view of the Justice League movie this are my fav actors and this is my first or second post here.

 

[Majik1387]

Are you being serious with those choices or are you just joking?

 

[Mattlocka]

I was serious with the choices.And i like the Hush story for Batman if done right it would be a good movie.But yes this is what i had in Mind for long time and i took the time to share it with other member here.

 

[protocida]

Mattlocka, everyone is glad you're not part of the Casting groups.

About it: Rumors of IESB says the movie is going to happen with a new plot, a new cast and, possibly, a new director.

WOWZERS! That is a huge rumor, then agian IESB has had a few of them for his movie. If this is the case then we must of really been getting crap on a stick with Miller & the young guy cast + Gale. Here's to hopin next time they get it right. As my IT department would say to fix everything...Have you tried rebooting it? GRRRR!

 

[Docker2.0]

I hate to bring this up in this thread but WB is crazier than a emo kid not taking prozac or thorazine. The IronMan and Hulk crossover with 3 big Hollywood names and a Academy award winner shows that you can have big names play in superhero movies and can also make a great film. I still say they should have through whatever money was necessary at Reynolds, Welling(or Routh depending on who you like), Bale, Biel(Belucci or Gale can pay the role), Common, and Michael Ironside as a Maxwell Lord and it could work. It doesn't even have to be those guys but guys close to that level.

That is quite a rumor, there. That is literally a COMPLETELY new direction.

Hope it's true, though...and this time they're smart enough to include Bale and Routh, or at least Routh!

Re:JLA PUSHED BACK!!! 4 Days, 6 Hours ago

(...)


Sure there are tax issues but the other major issues was that WB Execs including Jeff Robinov have is that they are not sold on this cast. They are playing nice by saying that they want the cast to comeback once production picks up again. That is 100% bull ****. Maybe a couple comeback but DJ and Baking Soda boy will not be back if they decide to move forward on this.

Does anyone think that George Miller is coming back? This is only an opinion and nothing confirmed but everyone at the studio level believes that he is gone.

If and when JLA get back into production I believe will be with a different cast, director and storyline.
