Recently, it was announced that Justice League: Part One will begin filming in April and that Zack Snyder would be directing the film. Snyder also released an image alongside Jason Momoa (Aquaman), teasing our first look at the Ezra Miller's Flash costume and a look at concept art for Mera. Now, a casting call has been released for the film, which is now in heavy pre-production.
According to the casting call released online for the upcoming DC film Justice League: Part One, which will be using "Caveman" as the working title, Mad Max: Fury Road director George Miller would be joining the film as a producer alongside Charles Roven, Doug Mitchell, Barrie Osborne, Dan Lin, and Deborah Snyder. The Mad Max director was once helming his own Justice League project, Justice League: Mortal, back in 2009, until Warner Bros. decided not to go ahead with the film.
The casting call also reveals information regarding the role of Mera, Aquaman's wife, and who would be playing the Queen of Atlantis. A while back, a rumor hit the web stating that actress Amber Heard had been in talks to take on the role of Mera in Justice League: Part One. Zack Snyder then released the first image of Justice League production with Jason Momoa, confirming that the Queen of Atlantis would make her big screen debut in Justice League through some well-placed concept art. The same casting call that revealed that George Miller would be producing Justice League also revealed that Amber Heard has been cast in the role of Mera.
This all sounds pretty amazing and it doesn't sound too far-fetched as rumors go, but like with every rumor, take this with a grain of salt. It should only be a matter of time until Warner Bros. releases more official news regarding the film. Until then, let us know what you think!
