I say he'll be part of either Flash's or Cyborg's backstory. My money is on someone like Jared Morillo as Flash's mentor or something.
 
I can see him as Green Arrow, more mature and if he is I hope to see the funny and dry humor Oliver, and that will require of Dafoe's acting than just being a bad guy.. and with CGI and Mo Cap as Martian Manhunter I guess its possible too.

It will be original to have him as a good guy when many just see him as a bad guy like the Joker.
 
Willem Dafoe is… Alan Scott! (not really.)
 
Hunter would have been a great Maggie Sawyer. :(

But he played a great character as Senator Finch, the character was subtle but if you see her scenes you will notice she was one of the best ones, so I'm happy with the result :)
 
Either William Dafoe is playing a Senator Finch-like character (so, supporting role, not too important but not unimportant) or he's playing someone connected to one of the JL members, and that'd be someone connected to Flash or Aquaman.

But he's not gonna be Martian Manhunter. They aren't doing that character.

Don't be so sure. Anything is possible.
 
Or connected with Cyborg (Dr. Magnus)

and why not MM? Because he aint black? The character was presented white too in the comics. He is a shapeshifter. I think he won't be Manhunter, but if you think just because he isn't black he can't be Manhunter, then that's silly.
 
This is what I summarised:
Green Lantern? Nope --production team said no GL 'till JL Pt2.

Martian Manhunter? Nope --you already have Supeman and adding MM only to serve to make JL bogged down.

Sam Lane? Are you kidding me. He's going to suffer the same fate as Jimmy Olsen in BvS.

Dafoe is either a new character or playing a supporting role, maybe connected with one of the JL member in similar way as Jeremy Iron as Alfred.

Lol who said anything about MM being black?

Why's this?
 
How about Abin Sur? JL could be a backdoor origin for GL Hal.

That's what I was thinking. Maybe even a pre-yellow ring Sinestro. I know they said no GLs, but they could've just been referring to the human headliners. Might be a bit of a reach, but not too outlandish I think.

Well if Defoe is Sam Lane then what happened to Jimmy won't happen here seeing as the article states he's going to be in both JL movies.

Snyder style slo-mo death that lasts for two movies. Willem Dafoe doing the trademark arms in the air for four hours confirmed.
 
So they'll kill him off and bring his ghost back in the sequel like Pa Kent? :o

Both JL? Interesting --It would mean that Dafoe simply signed on for more than one picture deal. JL Pt 2 --i don't think that they have a script at all.
