Justice League Flick By 2015?

Now that the legal spat over who owns Superman has been all but resolved...Warner Bros is wasting no time with their proposed superhero team up pic "Justice League" says The L.A. Times.

It seems that Warner hopes to shoot the film next year and have it ready for release by the Summer of 2015.

The "Justice League " teams DC Entertainment's most famous heroes (Batman, Superman, The Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, among others)--with the script by "The Gangster Squad" writer Will Beall already being worked on. Getting a  director and then a cast is the next order of bussiness.


It's assumed that Henry Cavill's Superman in Zack Snyder's "Man of Steel" will likely be a part of a JL film, but there is no official word that's a sure thing...Would the Ryan Reynolds version of "Green Lantern" be part of the film...? The rumored  Armie Hammer for Bats since Warners is planning to keep the Christopher Nolan's Bat-verse separate and apart from its plans for DC Comic films moving forward?..

The studio is taking the opposite approach to that of DC's main rival Marvel. While Marvel slowly built each hero's backstory in separate film series before getting "The Avengers" on screen, Warners and DC will have their superheroes go into their own movies following their introduction in "Justice League."

The date puts the film in direct competition with "The Avengers 2" which is slated for May 1st 2015.

 'Justice' will likely take a mid-late July weekend slot since Warners has had great success there with the two most recent Nolan "Dark Knight" films.
