The internet is buzzing with news of the upcoming JLA’s roster.
What is being reported:
A Justice League of America film has been given the tentative green light by Warner Bros. Though the film is still in it’s very, very early stages (no script has been officially worked on, but the basic plot is outlined), actors are quietly being pursued to test for the roles. The big surprise is the current team roster: Green Lantern, The Flash, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Martian Manhunter. That’s right, folks, no Superman or Batman; at least not yet. The film will be used to introduce Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Martian Manhunter to general audiences. Both Green Lantern and The Flash movies would have already been released in theaters, so there would be no need to delve into their origins. Either Superman or Batman, or both, could eventually make their way into the script; though at this time the studio is slowly moving forward without their inclusion. Several comics series, including the team’s first outing in The Brave and the Bold, have worked quite well without Batman and Superman as a part of the initial team.
