Ok ... we do this all the time in debates or movie threads and whatnot . So lets just do it all in one thread ! You know if a bunch a characters with their own movies got together for a team movie it'd be the League ....DC/WB manages their movies !
So ... we got Bale as Batman and Routh as Supes and whoever in Whedon's Wonder Woman ....but who would YOU cast as :

Superman:

Batman: Years ago , I thought this guy from Days of Our Lives would be a good Bruce/Batman http://www.tvtome.com/images/people/3/3/30-13007.jpg Drake Hogestyn . Now I feel that Michael T Weiss from the Pretender is my Batman . http://home.datacomm.ch/oreocookie/pics/jarod14.jpg

Wonder Woman:

the Flash:

Green Lantern:http://www.tagliners.org/pics/green_lantern_02.jpg =http://www.nndb.com/people/329/000026251/jerry-oconnell.jpg
I was roped into watching Jordan's Crossing last night and happily saw Jerry O'Connell was working again , since Sliders is sorely missed . After watching him on the show for awhile , I looked at my girlfriend and said " Kyle Rayner " . She didn't agree so she's buried in the backyard now .

Aquaman:

the Martian Manhunter:

and whoever else ?

I´m going with the Low budget TV cast and the unexpected choices and I´ll let you guess why in my head it´d work:



George Eads (CSI) as Superman
http://www.digitalhit.com/sag/10/sag04-178.jpg
Why him? Broad shoulders, square jaw, brunette and screen presence.

John C. McGinley(Scrubs) as Batman
http://imagesource.allposters.com/images/MMPH/249546.jpg
Why him? McGinley has just that dark, saddistic wacky sense of humour that would work marvelously well if he had just the right director.

Dina Meyer(Birds of Prey) as Wonder Woman
http://www.tonyznet.com/birdsofprey/cast/bio_dina.jpg
Why her? Well, she´s got the body, she´s got the face and she can act. Paint her hair black and we´re good to go.

John Corbett (northenr Exposure) as Flash
http://www.karensoasis.com/corbett.jpg
Why Him? Again a guy with a light sense of humour.

Eliseu Gouveia
03-21-2005, 02:31 PM
(My JLA cast - continued)

Keith Hamilton Cobb (Andromeda) as Green Lantern (John Stewart)
http://www.startrek.cz/andromeda/1tyr.jpg
Why him?I´m a huge Keith fan and I had to find a spot for him somewhere. :)

Kristen Cloke (Space Above and Beyond) as Hawkgirl
http://www.the11thhour.com/archives/062000/tvreviews/images/theothers2.jpg
Why her? I dunno. Maybe I´m seeing something that isn´t there, but I really think Kristen would pull a great Shayera.

And last but not least, for my baddie, I´d go with John de Lancie (Stargate) as Darkseid
http://www.zackcompany.com/authors/images/authorpics/john_de_lancie.jpg
Why him? De Lancie was born to play the inteligent and lethal (albeit smooth talking) supervilain.

Psivage
03-21-2005, 03:32 PM
Flash: Eric Szmanda

http://www.celebstation.org/actors/eric_szmanda/80-12007-sm.jpg

Great choices ! And now that I've seen an exceptionally hot pic of Charisma , I may have to rethink my stance on her ....hmmm ....

My Wonder Woman picks :
I did have hopes for Zeta-Jones but she shoulda done it after Zorro . Ah well . Here's what might have been ....
http://hq.cosmo.com.br/images/supergatas/super0010_catherinezetajones_mulhermaravilha.jpg

This actress , Melina Kanakaredes http://www.eonline.com/Features/Awards/Oscars99/Pgallery/Images/kanakaredes.lg.jpg would've been a damn good choice a few years ago , before she did her tv show Providence . Hell , she's even Greek !

Anyone have any thoughts for :

Hawkman:

Green Arrow:

Green ( Hal ) Lantern:

Plastic Man:

Zatanna:

...or any other Leaguers you think could make it to the big screen with little or no fuss ?

Man, I LIKE the way you think.


For the rest of the cast......

Michael Vartan (Alias) as Hawkman
http://entimg.msn.com/i/150/ce/0210/MVartan.jpg
Why him? No reason, I just think he´d add a different take on the tanagarian invader

Dylan McDermott(The Practice) as Green Arrow
http://www.crazy4cinema.com/Actor/imgs/mcdermott.jpg
Why him? Dylan may be young for the part, but once again I have faith in him to add a different take on the green rebel.

Green ( Hal ) Lantern
Sorry, I´d much rather have Keith as John Stewart.
But, if you insist, well, Michael Weatherly (http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/paramount_pictures/lara_croft__tomb_raider/michael_weatherly/tombpre.jpg) (Dark Angel) could add an interesting new spin on the mass-murdering fearless one.


Peter Wingfield(Highlander) as Plastic Man
http://www.pwfc.org/merchandise/images/hawaii2_sm.jpg
Why him? He may not look like it, but Peter has that spark in his eye that is the stuff all the lovable characters greats are made of.

Shannon Kenny (Invisible Man) as Zatanna
http://imaniacs.org/images/keeper.jpg
Why her? The Keeper is smart, witty and has that funny accent that would play just right with Zatanna

Chris Meloni as Batman .... I could almost see it ...if not for Oz ...lol !

I like your picks, except Brooke Burke as Barda; Barda is supposed to be huge; If we're going to get Mr. Miracle's big, imposing, yet attractive wife, that's the role that Lucy Lawless should play.

She's 5'11"; toss build up the suit, give her lifts in her boots, and you can have her stand 6'3", easy. That's the same height as Ray Romano.

Other than that, great choices.

Superman: Brendan Fraser. Can play the down home hick with superpowers to a tee-as well as the noble hero. He was born for that role.

Batman: Christian Bale. I have yet to see fault in this logic.

GL (Hal): Ben Bowder. He has to call the ring Wynona, though.

GL (Kyle): Jerry O'Connel. Yeah, the poster was right-he's pretty much Kyle.

I'm blanking on the rest of the core, but...

Zauriel: Matt Damon. For some reason, when I hear read Zauriel, I think Loki. I don't know why, but I think it works-altogether nice angel who's thrust into what's basically the worst situation imaginable, yet still tries to do the job he was fired from.

Asmodel: CGI Construct, voice by Keith David. Yeah, we have people who can play a 10' tall King Angel. Anycase, CGI for the bad boy-and Goliath's voice, especially for the Walls of Jericho line.

Superman 1,000,000: Bruce Campbell. Can anyone else talk about Super-ESP with a straight face? And look at him-that's the most lantern jaw I've ever seen, even in a comic! That has to be Ash!

Prometheus: Billy Zane.

I went with Chris Jericho for Booster Gold because I think Booster should LOOK like an awesome hero, while in fact being an assclown. Owen Wilson would be funny as hell though.

Superman - Brandon Routh
Batman - Christian Bale
Wonder Woman - Morena Baccarin (from Firefly)
Aquaman - I can't think of anyone here yet. I'd almost just go with some olympic swimmer because it has to be someone who is built like a swimmer. I'm sure you could find a blond olympic swimmer who could act.
Flash - Ryan Reynolds
Green Lantern - Ben Afleck
Martian Manhunter - I like the casting someone mentioned earlier of Avery Brooks, so I'll say him.
Green Arrow - Kiefer Sutherland
Black Canary - Sarah Michelle Geller
Hawkman - um Vin Deisel? (hey, you need someone who looks good with his shirt off)
Zatanna - Tiffany Thiessen
Elongated Man - the person who said Ryan Styles hit the nail on the head here.

I'll agree with everyone you said ...kinda iffy on Kiefer hooking up with Sarah Michelle Gellar .... but then my girl is 10 years younger than I am ... also , I'm an Affleck fan but don't see him as GL ...I'm stuck on Jerry O'Connel as Kyle . Dunno that I'd want Ben as Hal either . Maybe .... he was alright in Pearl Harbor as a pilot ....but Hal fans everywhere might burn us at the stake !

Yeah I know that the members of HEAT would probably kill me, but Affleck is who I would cast as Hal. I've been thinking about how I would do a GL movie and it occured to me that he would be good, and possibly great in the role. As for the age difference between SMG and Kiefer, wasn't Ollie older than Dinah anyway?

Superman: Evan Marriot
Evan Marriot (http://www.tommylanoie.com/images/evan-2.jpg)

Evan marriot, yeah yeah yeah, i know what you are gonna say, but if he never did that reality show he would be perfect imho.

Batman:: Julain Mcmahon
Julian Mcmahon (http://www.tvtome.com/images/people/26/3/44-26984.jpg)

Green latern: henry simmons
Henry Simmons (http://www.filmstew.com/Users/PhotoFinish/238/HenrySimmons.jpg)

this is pretty much dead on, he was on nypd blue for a few years, and ihas the size to play the role, he also has a deep gruff voice.

Flash: Ryan Reynolds
Ryan Reynolds (http://ffmedia.ign.com/filmforce/image/reynolds.jpg)

hes has the sense of humor to really pull it off, he is the only thing that made blade trinity watchable for me with his wise ass remarks, and he really got in shape after blade trinity so he has the physicality to play the role

Big Barda: Lucy lawless

Lucy Lawless (http://www.gotterdammerung.org/human-beauty/lucy-lawless.jpg)

why? because she is spot on perfect thats why

Hawk Girl: Miranda Otto
Miranda Otto (http://www.mlodejparze.pl/pliki/img/plotki/miranda_otto_.jpg)

Black Canary: Natasha Henstridge

SUPERMAN & BATMAN: Brandon Routh & Christian Bale since I'm willing to give Singer and Nolan the benefit of the doubt.

WONDER WOMAN: Catherine Zeta Jones is pretty much bang on perfect

FLASH: I actually like Goyer's idea of Ryan Reynolds as Wally West. Dunno who I'd cast for Barry Allen.

GREEN LANTERN: George Clooney or Ben Browder as Hal Jordan, Sam Jackson as John Stewart and, honestly, I think Topher Grace would kickass as Kyle Rayner, although Jerry O'Connel would probably be closer to the comics version.

GREEN ARROW: With Clooney as Hal, Brad Pitt should be Ollie.

BLACK CANARY: Uma Thurman has proved definitively that she is the most ass-kicking blonde bombshell in movie history, who better for Dinah?

J'ONN J'ONZZ: The guy from Alias who does his voice in the cartoon would be pretty good

Superman - Bruce Cambell. I think he can balance Clark and Supes in a comprable way to Chris Reeves. I think he's a little older, which Superman needs to be.

Batman - David Boreanaz. I think he can use a lot of the Angel character and switch from flighty playboy to brooding hero easy enough.

Green Arrow - Dennis Leary. Old, liberal, angry. Watch him in "The Ref" and put a bow in his hands.

Atom - Michael Rosenbaum. I like him as Lex on "Smallville", but I think with a little hair, he could work as the Mighty Mite.

Green Lantern (Kyle) - Tom Welling. He's naive and young and looks like Kyle. Plus he plays well with Rosenbaum.

Prometheus - WWE's Christian (Jay Reso). Gods, do you every want to slap this guy. My favorite, but makes a better heel than anyone.

I'm sorry, there are no other black actors but Sam Jackson. He was cloned following the Black Pague epidemic that swept Hollywood in 1997 and has been impersonating every black actor and actress since that time. He's that good an actor.

No, really, look it up if you don't believe me.

Also, Sam Jackson was the basis for the Justice League cartoon's John Stewart, so it seems like a pretty obvious choice to me.

This thread doesn't have enough villians. If there's going to be a JLA we need a Legion of Doom to fight it. Here's a few actors get to the bad guys rolling.

Bruce Cambell as Bizarro

While a JL movie would be nice, how would you handle the plot? I guess the Dominators would provide a reason for the League to reassemble? Do it Mission Impossible style with Batman gathering each member from thier respective locations. You could then cast older actors in the hero roles, with the younger actors for possible flashback sequences.

Brian R

Just because I felt like it:

Sam Jackson, terrific actor, plain and simple. As for "the only black actor", I believe Morgan Freeman and Denzel Washington might take offense. :)


Also, Maurice Chestnut is a great call to play John Stewart, he is a little young still, but he has the build and the look.

I guess you haven't noticed, but Sam Jackson circa "Shaft" looks pretty much identical to John Stewart in Justice League Unlimited. All he'd have to do is bulk up...

Obviously, you disagree. But, since I'm right, feel free to think whatever you like. ;)

Lets face it, when you are staring in a superhero movie, you have to be attractive, and while samuel jackson is an amazing actor his looks and build dont convey heroisism

actors like Henry Simmons, Micheal Jai White (who coincidentally voices doomsday in JLU) and Morris Chesnut fill all the criteria

I think most of Bored's choices are pretty spot on, but I'll jump on the Green Lantern Bandwagon and submit my choice for John Stewart: Laurence Fishburne. He has a definite quiet intensity that would work for the (animated, admittedly) version of the character.

Also, as she's starting to age a bit, BUT is still quite attractive, I'd pick Daryl Hannah to play Black Canary.

Matthew Mcoghnahey would be a decent Wally West, and Edward Norton was born to play the Atom.

Barry Allen is a tough call, though.

A little superhero action, some horror elements, mystery, maybe a big JSA vs Bnazi panzers battle, mix in a litle Indiana Jones...this could be a big ole spectacular!

Duncan wouldn't be bad but they should track down whoever did Darkseid's voice in the Superman and Justice League shows and get them on it. The calm, brooding menace and power radiated by that voice was incredible.

If I remember correctly, that was Michael Ironsides...I could be misremembering though.

Clancy Brown using his Kergan voice for Darkseid

Batman - Bale
Superman - Routh
Wonder Woman - not sure, should be very tall though
Flash - Ryan Reynolds as Wally West
Green Lantern - if he were younger Avery Brooks would of been a awesome John Stewart. Not sure now. If it's Hal, I would say Colin Farrell

For the uneducated:

Superman: Brandon Routh
Batman: Actually, I forgot
Wonder Woman: Taylor Cole
Martian Manhunter: Dominic Purcell
Green Lantern (Hal): Nathan Fillion
The Flash: Crap, forgot that one too
Aquaman: Gerard Butler
Zatanna: Sophia Bush
Green Arrow: Ewan McGregor (iffy on this)
Black Canary: Scarlett Johansson (also iffy on this one)

Pretty cookie cutter cast, I know.

Screw live action. Just bring back the cast and crew from JLU and give them a huge budget, and let them go nuts.

I could get behind that idea to... though so as to make it appeal to a wider audiance I'd scrap the Bruce Timm style artwork and go for something a lot more appealing in terms of animation.

Agreed. I can definitely see that.

I don't know about Lincoln from Prison Break as Martian Manhunter. I can see Lawrence Fishburne though.

I'm going to go one better: To hell with using present actors! I'm doing my "dream live-action Justice League".... so it's going to be like what my dream justice league would be like... even if it means using people who are old or dead.


Superman: Christopher Reeve

Batman: Christian Bale

Wonder Woman: Linda Carter, for lack of any better ideas in my head

Green Lantern (Hal): Bruce Willis back when he had hair

Flash (Barry): Leonardo DiCaprio is the only person who comes to mind. And that's only because he uses "Barry Allen" as a alias in Catch me if You Can.

Martian Manhunter/J'onn Jonzz: Voiced by Morgan Freeman. Played by any body builder-type who wants to be covered in green ink.
