Superman-Henry Cavill
Batman-Ryan Gosling(Yes I've been convinced and I haven't even watched Drive yet)
Wonder Woman-Yvonne Strahovski
Green Lantern(Hal)-Ryan Reynolds
The Flash(Barry)-Chris Pine
Aquaman-Alexander Skarsgard
Martian Manhunter-Idris Elba

Cadmus Program
Emil Hamilton-Richard Schiff
Amanda Waller-Angela Bassett
Wade Eiling-J.K. Simmons(I know he voiced him in the show but I didn't know that until after I cast him in this role)

White Martians as the villain,Maxwell Lord/Omacs/Cadmus villains for the sequel, and all of this leads up to Darkseid finishing the trilogy. They could do them normally or they could film them LOTR/Hobbit style.

White Martians? It worked in the animated series but do people just want to see another alien invasion?

Lol I wouldn't have been convinced of Ryan Gosling as Batman before Drive...

Yvonne Strahovski is a decent Wonder Woman choice, I wouldn't be dissapointed.

I don't particularly want Ryan Reynolds back as Green Lantern, I'd rather have John Stewart or a recast Hal... But if he returns I guess I can deal with it because he's a decent actor, I just would hate for this movie to be associated with that POS Green Lantern movie.

I understood the love for Pine as Hal Jordan before Reynolds was cast, but I don't understand the love for him as Barry Allen, nothing about him to me is Barry Allen esque. Definitely Hal Jordan though, I could see him replacing Reynolds as Hal.

Skarsgard as Aquaman is a great idea. I support it.

I definitely don't want Amanda Waller- at least Angela Basset's version of her- in a JL movie, her scenes were so ****ing horrible in Green Lantern, and like I said I don't want JL to be associated with GL.
 
I think they would be a good device to introduce MM. The true villains would be Cadmus. It would also involve a young Victor Stone and his father, a scientist for Waller and Eiling.

I don't really want JL associated with GL either. My first draft actually had Pine as Hal and CCH Pounder as Waller. I'm still stumped on Barry.

And your avatar :up:

Very true about MM, i struggle to find a good way of introducing MM without the White Martian.

I'm definitely cool with Victor Stone being in Justice League but idk about wasting precious screen time on his origin.

Pine as Hal is still a great idea, and CCH Pounder is the PERFECT Waller, absolutely perfect.

And Barry is definitely a hard one to cast.

Dude thanks :woot: my favorite band
 
His origin would be in the second movie with the OMACs and such.
Thanks man!

I agree with mostly everything you've said, especially Skarsgard as Aquaman. Gosling as Batman was a choice I've never heard of before, but the more I think about it the more I like the idea. Not sure about Strahovski, because I'm not quite familiar with her work.

I think an Alien invasion in the first movie could work against the JL in a sequel. With two aliens on the team, Superman and J'onn, the public would be wary of them after the White Martian problem. That could enable the Maxwell Lord/Omacs/Cadmus conflict.

GL should just be protecting his sector. Naturally aligning himself with the League because of the White Martian invasion, but not as a full-on member. He has other duties with the Corps, until he'll be needed for the sequel. Maybe John Stewart should be the GL instead, to not be too connected to the GL movie and have to recast Hal so soon.

:up: Agreed with everything you said.

It's too bad Marvel nabbed Anthony Mackie (The Falcon) & Idris Elba (Heimdall) either of them would have been a PERFECT John Stewart

Thanks man!

I could dig that. The first movie's lineup imo should definitely be (in order of importance):
Batman
Superman
Wonder Woman
Aquaman
Flash
Green Lantern

John Stewart is the way to go though so its not all white people on the team. John and Cyborg could be interesting too, but honestly if WB only gives us one black superhero I'd want it to be John Stewart. Why not have a Justice League movie setup a Teen Titans franchise? Cy is first and foremost a Teen Titans member, and if a TT movie came along I'd be disappointed if Cyborg wasn't part of the team due to being in a JL movie.

-The Watcher, nice sig dude, Alice in Chains is one of the greatest bands of all time hands down :up:

I think the GA would rather see John Stewart instead of Hal as well. I like them both, but giving John the spotlight would be great.

In response to your other post: While not technically true, I've always imagined J'onn as a Black character.

I think they would too! Before GL came out i remember people asking me why he wasn't black. He was such a damn good character in the animated series..

And I imagine J'onn as black too also because of the animated series, the voice actor Carl Lumbly is black.

Lance Reddick for Martian Manhunter!!
 
I want Brian White as John Stewart

I think his relation with Whedon will keep him in the Marvel Studios. :cwink::oldrazz:
 
He was great in Brick too.

And Magik- I hope not, Marvel keeps getting all the good John Stewart actors... first Elba, Derek Luke (wouldve been just okay), and now Anthony Mackie
 
So far...

Superman - Channing Tatum
Batman - Sam Worthington
Wonder Woman - Gina Carano

And with that I destroyed the entire integrity of my post. :p

Why does everyone hate Worthington so much to compare him with Tatum and Carano?
 
Cavill as Superman
Bentley as Batman
Atwell as Wonder Woman
Gyllenhaal as Green Lantern
Cooper as Flash I
Redmayne as Flash II
Edgerton as Aquaman
Hounsou as Martian Manhunter


Cavill, Bentley, Atwell, Gyllenhaal, Cooper, Redmayne, Edgerton, Hounsou.

Good mix of big names and rising film stars in Hollywood.
 
Cooper is your only horrible choice. The rest are good. :up:
