Warner Bros. and DC Comics have been circling a multi-hero Justice League film for years now,
with names like George Miller added and subtracted from the equation
without any real results. So as we get closer to seeing rival Marvel’s The Avengers, it’s no real surprise that rumors regarding a Justice League film are heating back up.
CosmicBookNews.com (yes, “cosmic”) runs a rumor on its site that Warner and Legendary Pictures want a Justice League
film in theaters by 2015 or 2016. Again, this is a rumor, and needs to
be treated as such. But there are a few interesting details in their
report. First, they mention that DC Comics Chief Creative Officer Geoff
Johns would executive produce the feature, and David Goyer’s the leading
candidate to write a script. Though they say Christian Bale likely
wouldn’t return as Batman in the League film, Henry Cavill and Ryan Reynolds could don the Superman and Green Lantern tights for the picture.
That sounds like taking a page right out of Marvel’s Avengers book, no?
Before a Justice League film happens, according to the site, both
Superman and Green Lantern would get second, standalone features that
may or may not lead into the plot of Justice League. Now, all of this sounds extremely tentative. And virtually everything you just read could change or, even more likely, completely fall apart. Man of Steel could tank. Christopher Nolan could decide to do three more Dark Knight films with Bale, pushing JL back even more.
But it’s worth noting that the project will not fade away, and as Marvel brings The Avengers
to fruition. You know the creative folks at DC are chomping at the bit
to assemble their own super team for a major motion picture. We’ll see
if it ever happens.

Second I'll be excited as long as it's BIG. It is the Justice-freaking-League. It should be the biggest and grandest superhero movie ever made. If not, tell me, what superhero movie should be bigger? Spider-man..Hulk....which one?
Justice...
Freaking...
League..
It should be a modern day operatic-level EPIC. If they aren't ready to make it the biggest and best superhero movie ever then they shouldn't bother.
let me know when its for sure
cant wait to see the impending nerdgasms!!!
however,
The idea of a 2 hour movie coming in 2015 is great an all but what am I supposed to do? I mean we are planning to retire in 30 years. There may be new world leaders by 2015. An entire war can start and end in the middle-east. I might have 2 new children by then. Will I even be alive in 2015?
I'm glad someone is planning to make a superhero movie 3 years from now but I dont know what to do? I don't even have a 36 month calendar to count down. I don't even know if our local cinema will still be open or even exist as a building in 2015?
