Now that they have officially announced HENRY CAVILL I decided to
create this new JUSTICE LEAGUE Fancast using HENRY as SUPERMAN.
And present a brief storyline.
Now my last fancast I did a JUSTICE LEAGUE spin-off from SMALLVILLE
and several people got on my ass for not being very original and
coming up with a new cast, so I'm doing this CAVILLBOOT to make-up
for that. I surely didn't mean to piss people off!
LOL
There are some already cast actors here but I have quite a few new and
original choices, as well!
I would want Christian Bale to reprise his role as Batman to maintain
continuity. BALE is the perfect companion to CAVILL as Superman, 6' tall
to Henry's 6'1”.
Thus I would adjust all my cast members to not being taller than HENRY.
I don't think it would be necessary to give an explanation as to why BALE
is now in the more fantasy-related DC Universe. He just simply is! And
just because the JLA is of the more fantasy-based world of the DCU doesn't
mean it won't be grounded in realism, to the extent, to keep it all credible.
I'm sure SNYDER would keep it all credible and logical.
“MY STORYLINE”:
My story would have LEX LUTHOR creating the SECRET SOCIETY OF
SUPER-VILLAINS, which in this film would be LEX'S Secret Society Of
Powerful yet very corrupt individuals gathered to help fight the threat,
against LEX and them, of the influx of powerful alien entities upon earth,
super-powerful alien vigilantes along with super-powerful humans who
oppose LEX and his shady bunch of business-people and crooked powerful
individuals and injustice as a whole.
Now I would have an already established but young JUSTICE LEAGUE
for this first movie. I don't think there is any need to go extensively
into the JL'S origins. This is the young stages of THE JL.
LEX'S secret group of super-powerful corrupt individuals here he names,
SOCIETAS (pronounced SO-SI-ET-TAUS), a Latin word associated with
the word “SOCIETY”. I've used this “SOCIETAS” name before but
this storyline is a bit different and is the new CAVILLBOOT JL. This
SOCIETAS is not associated with the government, it's the private group of
major mega-powered criminals and powerful under-handed business-people
working together with LEX.
LEX chooses, from among his myriad agents of his SOCIETAS to destroy
THE JLU, a specific group, precisely matched to each JLU MEMBER.
But of his hand-picked group little does LEX know that there is an
alien enemy inside his organization, one of his strongest allies is not
exactly who he says he is! In fact it's the very man who has been one
of the major proponents of the aliens and super-powered beings
who are vigilantes, being stripped of their powers, which LEX wants
too. That man is SLADE WILSON, DEATHSTROKE. And who is masquerading
as him? A very insidious alien presence, none other than “BRAINIAC”
himself.....

MY JUSTICE LEAGUE FILM IDEA-FANCAST ENTITLED:
“JUSTICE LEAGUE UNIVERSAL”
Who else for this large ensemble cast? Zack is great at big casts! And
he will already be in the swing of things with the SUPERMAN films.
DIRECTOR: ZACK SNYDER
SUPERMAN/CLARK KENT: HENRY CAVILL- 6'1”
My favorite now for WONDER WOMAN is the talented, tall and athletic
TAYLOR COLE.
For those that want a classically trained British actress to go along
with the classically trained British actor HENRY CAVILL I also add an
an alternate casting of the WONDERFUL LUCY GRIFFITHS of ROBIN HOOD--(BBC)
fame.
WONDER WOMAN (DIANA PRINCE): TAYLOR COLE- 5'8½”, 5'11” WITH 2 ½” SHOE-LIFTS.
WONDER WOMAN (DIANA PRINCE): LUCY GRIFFITHS
Like I already said CHRISTIAN BALE is perfect to go along with CAVILL'S
6'1” CLARK KENT/SUPERMAN.
BATMAN (BRUCE WAYNE): CHRISTIAN BALE- 6'
YVONNE will always be the only one for me for the role of BLACK CANARY.
BLACK CANARY (DINAH LANCE): YVONNE STRAHOVSKI- 5'9”
GARRETT, to me is ideal for the young blond, justice-loving GREEN ARROW.
GREEN ARROW (OLIVER QUEEN): GARRETT HEDLUND- 6'2½”
ZATANNA ZATARA is the daughter of famed magician GIOVANNI
“JOHN” ZATARA and SINDELLA, a member of the mystical HOMO
MAGI race. ZATANNA is a direct descendant of the artist and
magician Leonardo da Vinci and is related to Nostradamus,
Alessandro Cagliostro, the noted alchemists Nicholas Flamel
and Evan Fulcanelli and Lord ARION of ATLANTIS. Her cousin,
ZACHARY ZATARA, is also a magician.
ZATANNA was a successful stage illusionist before she discovered her true
magical powers while investigating the disappearance of her father. She
was successfully reunited with him but their time together was short and
unfortunately both of her parents were killed on separate occasions while
saving her life.
ZATANNA (ZATANNA ZATARA): JULIA VOTH- 5'8”
Let's face it Ryan is going to be playing GL/HAL JORDAN into the future.
GREEN LANTERN (HAL JORDAN): RYAN REYNOLDS- 6'2”
All I can say is this girl is perfect for KENDRA SAUNDERS/SHAYERA,
longingly searching for her new MATE/HAWKMAN to come along someday,
somewhere.
HAWKGIRL (KENDRA SAUNDERS): ASHLEY GREEN- 5'5”
I'm going here with a younger actor to play BARRY, to match-up with the
young HENRY CAVILL as SUPERMAN. I think Scott is ideal for a younger
Barry!
FLASH (BARRY ALLEN): SCOTT PORTER- 6'
MARTIAN MANHUNTER is listed at 6'6” at DC and I want a real-life person
to play him along with a little CGI! Thus I choose the 6'4” HENRY
SIMMONS who played a NY City police detective on the prestigious "NYPD
BLUE" for many years!
MARTIAN MANHUNTER (DET. JOHN JONES/J'ONN J'ONNZ): HENRY SIMMONS- 6'4”
I prefer the long-haired more savagely-kingly AQUAMAN. The classically-
trained volatile British actor from “SONS OF ANARCHY”, CHARLIE HUNNAM,
fits this role to a “T”!
AQUAMAN (ARTHUR CURRY): CHARLIE HUNNAM- 6'1”
This guy is perfect for PLASTIC MAN, his rubbery body & quick wit just fit!
LOL
PLASTIC MAN (PATRICK EDWARD O'BRIEN): JOHNNY KNOXVILLE
(PS: I would leave HAWKMAN & THE ATOM for JLU NUMBER 2 or 3!)
SUPPORTING CAST:
Already cast.
ALFRED (ALFRED PENNYWORTH): MICHAEL CAINE
Most of us want OLIVIA for LOIS.
LOIS LANE: OLIVIA WILDE
MR. CAAN is great as tough leaders of people so PERRY WHITE, the
editor of the DAILY PLANET, is right up his alley.
PERRY WHITE: JAMES CAAN
I had CLANCY once for PERRY WHITE but I realize he looks exactly like
this illustration of GENERAL LANE and has the gravitas to play him to
the hilt.
GENERAL LANE (SAM LANE): CLANCY BROWN
SOCIETAS
I've got on board the JON HAMM for LEX LUTHOR wagon.
LEX LUTHOR: JON HAMM
I'm sorry but she is set to play CAROL so we'll just have to suffer with it.
STAR SAPPHIRE (CAROL FERRIS): BLAKE LIVELY
I don't think this casting needs lots of explanation...BEN is perfect for
DEADSHOT!
DEADSHOT (FLOYD LAWTON): BEN FOSTER
JAIME is ideally sexy, saucy and sassy to play the fiery-haired PLANT QUEEN.
POISON IVY (PAMELA LILLIAN ISLEY): JAIME KING
This man just hits the mark for the deadly DEATHSTROKE.
DEATHSTROKE (SLADE WILSON): SEAN BEAN
ALLURA is actually the name given to two supernatural entities born in an
as-yet-unnamed alternate dimension, each of whom has impressive supernatural
powers. However, while one Allura is good-hearted and peace-loving, the other
is evil and hateful, using her magic for selfish and cruel purposes.
At some point, the evil Allura discovered the presence of the dimension that
houses the planet Earth, and decided to use her power to rule it. Upon
learning of this the sorcerer John Zatara used his own magic to fight her, and
imprisoned her within a magical artifact called the Sword of Paracelsus. Before
she faded from sight, however, Allura managed to learn that Zatara and his
wife, Sindella, had just become the parents of a baby girl whom they named
Zatanna. Allura then placed a curse on Zatara, proclaiming that if he and his
daughter ever set eyes on each other, both of them would be destroyed. To guard
against this, Zatara left his wife and child, intending never to see them
again.
Years later, as she reached adulthood, Zatanna…who had never known or
understood why her father had abandoned her…undertook a search for him, aided
by several of the members of the JUSTICE LEAGUE, Allura, who despite her
imprisonment could still mystically observe goings-on between dimensions,
learned of this and tricked Zatanna into freeing her. Allura then brought
Zatanna to the magical realm of Kharma, where she knew Zatara had settled as he
looked for a way to undo the curse. Before father and daughter could see each
other, though, Zatanna was warned of what would happen by the good Allura, who
offered to help defeat her sister. The evil Allura unleashed hordes of magical
warriors against them, and Zatanna summoned magical duplicates of the Justice
League members she had befriended to aid in the battle. At long last, the evil
Allura was defeated and imprisoned once more, and the curse was removed,
allowing Zatara and his daughter to be reunited.
Unfortunately, the evil Allura managed to escape to menace Zatanna again, but
was once again defeated, and seemingly destroyed. With supernatural beings, of
course, this is not necessarily the end, and it is more than possible that the
evil Allura will someday resurface.--(My thanks to THE DC UNIVERSE DATABASE
for all the info.)
In my film idea here ALLURA is from an alternate universe who has adopted
earth as her new home in order to exploit it's riches and bounty, being as
as there is not much magic here in this universe to thwart her.
She fits right in with LEX'S corrupt group.
ALLURA: MICHELLE BORTH
Already cast. He's perfect for the part!
SINESTRO (THAAL SINESTRO): MARK STRONG
Already cast as the feline felon in NOLAN'S 3RD DARK KNIGHT movie.
CATWOMAN (SELINA KYLE): ANNE HATHAWAY
I wanted to choose the FLASH'S enemy with the coolest look, to me.
SEANN has the quick moves and quick wit to play this guy to perfection!
JOHNNY QUICK: SEANN WILLIAM SCOTT
This is my pick for GRUNDY from now and into the future. I think he just
simply fits no matter what his acting pedigree!
SOLOMON GRUNDY: GLENN JACOBS
This guy is my permanent pick for the antagonist aquatic BLACK MANTA
BLACK MANTA: D. B. WOODSIDE
JAMES MARSTERS does a perfect British accent and has the wit to
play this oddball humorous super-baddie.
RAG DOLL (PETER MERKEL ): JAMES MARSTERS
I want a young actor with some chops to play BRAINIAC. I think
MATTHEW is an ideal candidate!
SPECIAL GUEST STAR AS BRAINIAC: MATHEW GOODE
