The Justice League Reviews, Interviews & More
In a rumor that can’t possibly be true, word is now beginning to spread that Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale will be returning to the character of Batman—with Bale playing the character again in The Justice League, and Nolan overseeing the project, just as he has with Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel.
For about three seconds there, the Warner Bros. attempt to carbon-copy Marvel’s success with The Avengers seemed full-steam ahead, with the Man of Steel film set to lead to a Justice League (featuring a team up between Superman, a new Batman, and various other DC Comics superheroes), and the Justice League film acting as a reboot for a new Batman...
As if Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel didn’t have enough pressure already—it’s Warner Bros/ DC Comics’ first post-The Dark Knight Trilogy comic book film, it has to live up to the first two classic Superman films (and Christopher Nolan’s Batman series), and it has to overcome the variously so-so to absolutely horrible last three Superman films—it now...
It must be good to be Joseph Gordon-Levitt—the gifted actor not only starred in some of 2012’s biggest and best films (The Dark Knight Rises, Lincoln and Looper), he was (still is?) one of the frontrunners for Bruce Wayne/Batman in the upcoming Justice League film series, as well as the Batman cinematic reboot. And now, the lucky guy is now “in the...
What good is the internet, if it cannot be used solely as a device to spoil the plots of comic-related blockbusters a solid year or two before they are released? Right? (Please forgive us) As such, hey, would you like the plot of Warner Bros.’ upcoming Justice League film (a.k.a., Jeez, people will pay how much to see a bunch of people in spandex fighting nonsensical...
Warning: The Dark Knight Rises spoilers ahoy! (Seriously, have you really not seen that movie yet?)
The instant news broke that Warner Bros. was launching a The Justice League film, one of the very first questions asked was how the franchise would handle Batman. Christian Bale then stated he...
While Warner Bros. and DC Comics are obviously keen to develop as massive cinematic tentpole franchise in the vein of Marvel and Disney’s juggernaut of Avengers-related releases, a big question concerning WB’s The Justice League is whether or not it would link up with Zack Snyder’s upcoming Superman film, Man of Steel. Initially, Snyder indicated that his...
Last week, we reported that Guillermo del Toro was pushing to make his own unique take on the superhero team-up film, one specifically tailored to his aesthetic of horror-fantasy-sci-fi, which would feature such DC Comics oddities as Swamp Thing, Deadman, Phantom Stranger, and John Constantine. It would be a kind of ‘Justice League of Monsters’ film, if you like; but at the time it was...
It seems everyone wants to get in on the superhero team-up genre, now that The Avengers made such a film genre an insanely lucrative project. While Marvel is setting up The Avengers 2, and Warner Bros. is hard at work putting together a Justice League film that will feature Superman, Batman and more, Guillermo del Toro is apparently pushing for his own brand of...
While Armie Hammer, who first came to mainstream attention by playing the Winklevoss twins (or Winklevii, if you like) in David Fincher’s The Social Network, is already set to play an American icon as the titular character in the upcoming The Lone Ranger, he was set to play another famous hero. Before director George Miller (the Mad...
Though she is easily one of the most famous comic superheroes, well, ever, Wonder Woman hasn’t been the luckiest gal in the world when it comes to live action media. After one campy TV series in the 1970s starring Linda Carter, several attempts have been made to bring Wonder Woman to the big and little screens. This time the CW is going to take a crack...
It all started a few weeks ago, when it was rumored and reported that Warner Bros. had approached Ben Affleck to direct its own take on the ‘sweet, sweet Jesus, The Avengers made a ton of bank, we better get on that’ phenomenon adaptation of DC Comics’ The Justice League, featuring Batman, Superman, The Flash, et al. Affleck wasn’t interested, and now the rumor-mill...
Earlier this week, we reported that Warner Bros. has is responding to the success of Marvel’s The Avengers by gearing up for their own superhero supergroup film: DC’s Justice League. Word has already trickled out that the team-up film will be “dark and mature,” a la Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy; now it seems that Warner Bros. is set to take a page from the...
Yesterday, we brought you the news that Warner Bros. was finally committing to a full-length and live action Justice League film, and that despite the proximity of this news to the release of The Avengers, Warner Bros. and DC has been developing the film for some time. Gangster Squad writer Will Beall is penning the scrip; moreover, comic book...
Ever since Marvel Studios decided to take fans on a journey that ultimately leads to The Avengers movie, we've been wondering if Warner Bros would do the same. Granted, we've heard rumors floating around about a Justice League film long before The Avengers, but now that it's out there people want definite answers. While speaking at a...
Fans of the DC Comics legend Superman are still in shock over news that David S. Goyer and Jonah Nolan will be penning the screenplay for the new film as well as Batman 3. On top of that we also heard that Greg Berlanti might be in talks to direct the big screen adaptation of The Flash, so what could top those three movies?...
Yesterday we reported that Director George Miller was dropped for the Justice League movie. Well, apparently we've been had! Miller never made any statement about Justice League or Mad Max.
A representative from Kennedy Miller Mitchell has said that that Miller never even appeared on the Australian talk show "Sunrise Morning Show" and that "The facts are indeed...
Apparently, The Justice League wants bigger and better. Dark Horizons reports that filmmaker George Miller (Happy Feet, Mad Max) appeared on Sydney-based morning talk show called "Sunrise" on Monday morning and said that he is no longer involved with the Justice League in ANY way. It is unclear who called it off, but one things for sure, it's over.
He was unsure...
