Here's my cast for a Justice League movie.

There have been countless amounts of opinions based on who should play certain charterers for the impending, and rumored filled JLA movie. I put together my own group of actors some might consider off the radar, and a few which may have been mentioned in previous articles.

Superman/ Henry Cavill
One of the most obvious choices would be Henry Cavill for the role of Superman. That one we won’t have to debate very much on.

Batman/ Matt Bomer
In the comics and most animated versions of Batman have a resemblance to Superman’s physical characteristics? Matt Bomer, and Henry Cavill share some similarities in their appearance. I know some are aware of Matt Bomer coming out of the closet recently, but why should that obscure his portrayal of the Dark Knight. An actor’s job involves trying to create an illusion for us to believe, and he’s done that for years (the playboy type). He was also once considered to play Superman in the past. Currently he is one of leads on the hit show White Collar, and is staring in 50 Shades of Gray. Matt Bomer has also voiced his talents for the upcoming Superman Unbound animated movie.

Wonder Women/ Kelly Thiebaud
I’ve consider Kelly Thiebaud as one of the “off the radar” actresses based on her athletic appearance (5’9”), and physical abilities. She has a very exotic look, and can also play a tough heroine type. Currently Kelly Thiebaud plays a doctor on the soap opera General Hospital.

Captain Marvel/ Joe Manganiello
Another actor once thought of as a frontrunner for the role of Superman could lend his capabilities for another role as Captain Marvel/ Shazam. His appearance would be better suited for a sequel.

The Flash/ Ryan Kwanten
Most of us know Ryan Kwanten as Jason Stackhouse on True Blood. He has proven to play the juvenile type by adding a humorous personality, and becoming a strong figure on TV. As The Flash he would be a perfect fit, centered, on his personal pursuits; triathlon, a boxing champ and other activities from his native Australia.

John Steward/ Michael Jai White
Based on his past interpretations of action characters, Michael Jai White may have the power to erase the original adaptation of The Green Lantern from the last movie. Well versed in martial arts, his fighting capabilities would translate well on screen. His performance on Black Dynamite shows he has range to play other roles.

J'onn J'onzz/ Lance Reddick
From the recently completed series on TV; Fringe, as well as from other hit shows like OZ, and The Wire. Lance Reddick has a presents of authority which is appropriate for the part. His characters voices resemble the nature of J’onn J’onzz from the animated Justice League series.

Darkseid/ Kevin Grevioux
Most recognized from playing a Lycan from the Underworld Series, and now doing voice over work on Young Justice as The Black Beatle. Kevin Grevioux is actually a huge fan boy of comic book related media. He also helped to create some of the material for Underworld. Besides understanding the fantastical elements used to translate ideas onto TV, and movies he already has the voice, and build for Darkseid without any special enhancements.

All of the actors mentioned above are all physically fit, and most are above average actors who are more than capable to perform exceptionally well, and surprise us entirely in their perspective roles. All of them have already portrayed their counter parts in one way or another through their past and present jobs. Thanks for taking some time to read my list. I would like to compile another listing in the future with an inventory of villains.

Relax everyone. There was a minor mistake when I was editing my post. I forgot to reapply to the correct setting. I originally had it under “Editorial”. Besides, why should the category be more important than the article? Debate my opinions not my mislabeled “News/ Editorial”. I’ll double check on the next one. Thanks.

@LucasMend that's a good one

That's how you make fun of a mistake.

Cool cast. I think for that they should make a World's Finest movie, and the JL movie can be a sequel to that.

@Superguy15 that's what I was thinking.

Props for finding an obscure actress for Wonder Woman - although yeah, never heard of her. Same goes for J'onn.

For the Martian Manhunter, at least in my mind (I always claim to be an authority on the character, and some people actually listen to me, heh)...

Several actors. That should be kind of obvious. He is NOT a human character, is not from Krypton raised by humans, he is from a race of shape-shifters.

I'm still not biting for Darkseid appearing in the first Justice League movie. Too much backstory - it's not like Darkseid is going to randomly BoomTube his way to Earth and demand we kneel before him. Earth just ain't that important.

If you were going to adapt Cosmic Odyssey, however, then by all means! It even has J'onn and John partnered up...

@Tainted87 The list is more for exposure for certain actors, not necessarily in the order they should appear in a JLA movie. Your right about Darkseid. If you have a chance to check out Fringe there's something about his demeanor which reminds me of J'onn from the animated JL.

cool cast. Im not sure about Arnie Hammer for batman.

Tainted87 - 3/17/2013, 2:06 PM
And that's cool, but the ideal fancast for J'onn should look like this:

J'onn J'onzz/Lance Reddick/Henry Cavill/Amy Adams/Lara Pulver/Kodi Smit-McPhee/etc/etc/etc

Unless you're just wanting Lance Reddick for mocap.

@Bighead

Finally, thank u, someone sees eye to eye with me about Bomer being Batman, Ive been suggesting this in comments for a long while now. Hed be perfect and he practically pulls off the Bruce Wayne persona on White Collar already, just give him the batsuit and go from there :]

I've put articles in the wrong section before don't take it too serious. As for the casting its not bad. Greviouxs been around the genre for a bit and I've always seen him as beastman, but thinking of seeing him as Darkseid would be really cool to.
