I couldn’t be happier when the rumour of The Justice League of America movie being fast tracked into production. I seriously can’t wait for this movie, especially as Ryan Reynolds commented about the possibility of playing The Flash in the JLA movie.
Reynolds said, “[it] might, yeah. I don’t really know how much I’m allowed to talk about that stuff.”
Yesterday, IESB sat down and talk to Christian Bale about the possibility of a Justice League of America movie. Christian completely denied being asked to take part in the project saying, “It’d be better if it doesn’t tread on the toes of what we’re doing, though I feel that it would be better if it comes out after Batman 3.”
Could it be that they will replace Batman and Superman with new characters? Or maybe they’re doing a teen titan style JLA? I don’t see that happening and you can’t do a Justice League of America movie without the two integral characters. Who knows what will happen, if it happens at all?
Do you think they should use new actors for Batman and Superman in JLA so Christian Bale and Brandon Routh could continue their solo superhero movies? Let us know.

Tom Welling is Superman. I’m sick of Hollywood telling ME who to like. I want Tom, anyone else and its already starting from a MAJOR disadvantage. As for Batman, well Christian is probably the best, but if he couldn’t/wouldn’t play the role there are others who would be acceptable.
It really irritates me that casting seems to be such a duplicitous event, always riddled with ulterior motives. Casting has to be one of Hollywood’s WORST flaws. You could do a lot worse than simply flush the lot of these freakishly out-of-touch individuals and opt for some kind of interactive “ask the people who they want” type production.
PS - I WOULD LOVE TO VOTE for film roles,.. and I dare say passionate aficionados would do an INFINITELY better job than the existing “least-common-denominator, PC-Nazi” style approach that has seen Hollywood take such a turn for the worse. I’m not saying they ALL have to be made this way… but couldn’t they try just once?
