New Justice League & DCEU Rumors

New Justice League & DCEU Rumors

With the Justice League movie officially starting filming today in the UK, how about some rumors?

While not the best source of rumors, maybe these batch of DC movie 4Chan rumors explains why Black Canary was recently killed off in Arrow?

Justice League has a November 17, 2017 release.

• Zack Snyder might not direct JUSTICE LEAGUE 2 if JUSTICE LEAGUE also receives critical backlash.

• JUSTICE LEAGUE is massive and filled with characters. Snyder and Chris Terrio wrote the script together.

• Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Ezra Miller, Jason Momoa, Ray Fisher, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, J.K. Simmons, Jena Malone, Jeremy Irons, Connie Nielsen, Viola Davis, Diane Lane, Joe Morton and Harry Lennix are the returning actors from previous movies.

• Amber Heard, Alona Tal, Imogen Poots, James Remar, Alfred Molina and Ed Harris are also cast as Mera, Black Canary, Iris West, Darryl Frye, Thomas Morrow and General Wade Eiling.

• Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Tessa Thompson are in negotiations to play Sarah Charles.

• Javier Bardem, Jackie Earle Haley, Frances McDormand, Joel Edgerton, Rosamund Pike, Bill Nighy and Willem Dafoe have also been approached and/or are in discussions for undisclosed roles.

• AQUAMAN will feature Ocean Master and the Trench. Black Manta is not slated to appear at this point.

• THE FLASH will feature the Reverse-Flash, but it’s a “new twist” that producers are confident will set it apart from the TV show.

• Shawn Levy is the frontrunner to direct SHAZAM.

• Matt Reeves, Duncan Jones and Rian Johnson have been approached about GREEN LANTERN CORPS.

• CYBORG is still in the backburner until JUSTICE LEAGUE provides feedback on the public’s reception of Cyborg. If it happens, it’ll have a black director.

• Ben Affleck is still reluctant to direct the new BATMAN movie, but he’s writing it. It’ll definitely include Jared Leto’s Joker. 

• SUICIDE SQUAD 2 is likely to happen in 2018/2019 judging by early reactions.
