The Dude casts the Justice League.

Josh Brolin as Superman



Who knows what's happening with the next Superman movie, but for a Justice League adaptation I'd like to see an older, established Superman who isn't afraid to take charge of the situation. Brolin has all the perfect qualities needed to Superman; he's handsome, charming and most of all doesn't look like he's in high school.

Clive Owen as Batman



When doing the Justice League I think Grant Morrison's BatGod is really the way to go. A perfect mixture of James Bond, Sherlock Holmes and Jason Bourne, who better to portray this than Clive Owen?

Caterina Murino as Wonder Woman



Wonder Woman is a tricky one to cast. You need some one exotic, tall, athletic and beautiful, but still a good actress. Murino best known for Casino Royale is a very underrated actress and I'd love to see her take on this role.

Ryan Kwanten as The Flash



More than just comic relief, The Flash is the everyman of the team. Kwatan is one of the best things about True Blood and I think this would really be his time to shine in a big budget movie.

Idris Elba as Green Lantern



Since we have Ryan Reynolds as Hal in a solo Green Lantern movie, it would be nice to have John Stewart on the team. Idris Elba is a more than capable actor who could easily handle John's military nature.

Daniel Craig as Aquaman



More than anything whoever that plays Aquaman needs to be taken seriously. Regal, strong and likable are the characteristics Aquaman should possess and Craig can pull that off in spades.

Chiwetel Ejiofor as Martian Manhunter



My original pick was Mark Strong, but since he's playing Sinestro in Green Lantern now, I thought I should change it. Chiwetel is another excellent actor and would make a great Jonn.

Gerard Butler as Green Arrow



Green Arrow is probably my favorite member of the Justice League and Butler really needs a role to get back to bad-ass status from 300 and Rock"n Rolla and somehow lost in PS, I Love You and The Ugly Truth. I'm still not sure about his American accent, but I have no problem with Green Arrow speaking with Butler's regular voice.

Diane Kruger as Black Canary



I love Diane Kruger. She was fantastic in Inglourious Basterds, helped save National Treasure from being completely boring and she's not to hard on the eyes either. Kruger has everything needed for Black Canary and would make a great counterpart for Butler.

Josh Brolin and Gerard Butler is wrong, but all others are perfect.
Good cast.

DUDE @ Great work though totally hate 007 as [frick]ing AQUAMAN, thats nearly as bad as having SPOCK as NAMOR! : p

KEVIN McKIDD!!

Very good an original MANHUNTER pick @ JEFF!

A HELL YES to RYAN as THE FLASH!!! It is WALLY right??

Got my own JOHN STEWART pic (TAYE DIGGS) see ELBA more BISHOP! And BUTLER more HAWKMAN! But wouldn't say no!

Great CANARY pick!!

P.S. Oh yeah forgot @ BROLIN is already DC's JONAH HEX though he would make a good Supes!

If we're talking older Supes, it's got to be Michael Trucco.



Clive is a decent Batman choice. Though, again, if we're talking older, Eric Bana's the man.

Only saw Murino in Casino Royale, don't think it really proved she had the chops for a big character like Wonder Woman.

Kwanten is a good choice for Flash, though I prefer Patrick Wilson as Barry and Chris Evans as Wally.

Elba would own as John Stewart, my choice as well.

I'd love to see Craig as Aquaman, was my choice for a while, but may be a tad old, so I'd go with Michael Fassbender as Aquaman and Craig as Orion.

Martian Manhunter is decent.

Butler fits Hawkman better than GA IMO.

I still have not seen Basterds, but Kruger was awful in Troy, and I haven't seen the National Treasure movies, so, judging purely by what I've seen of her, I'd say no to her as Black Canary. And I don't think she's that great looking.

I've only used Fassbender as Bullseye and Aquaman, 2 characters from different universes.

I did try to watch IB a few weeks ago, just couldn't get into it. Turned it off after about 30 minutes. Just got kinda bored. I'll try to sit down and watch the whole thing.

Wow! Fabulous cast! I may not agree with all of them, but not a single pick could be totally disliked and I'd have to say I'd have no issue's with a casting like this for the real deal. I can tell thought was very much involved in creating this cast. Kudos.

He wouldn’t be my first choice but I’m sure Brolin could pull it off

Not to sure on Clive Owen as Bats, I don’t think he’s intimidating enough

The rest are good too. Overall I really like this cast. Good job ;)

Josh Brolin as Supes is a bold choice. I can kinda picture it. I love the Idea of Idris Elba as John Stewart. It's just perfect to me. Gerard Butler can't hold an American accent to save his life, but he does have that free spirited-ness that reminds me of Ollie, so it's possible. I don't like Daniel Craig as Aquaman at all. In the future, you might want to point out which flash you want the actor to play, although its clear that it's Wally that you had in mind. Personally, I would have preferred Barry though. Other than that, Well done

Ron: Battlestar Galactica. It's too bad, because he's 39 now, and at the pace the Superman film is going, well...

Nice name and avatar BTW :)

Lee: I don't understand?

Dude I dig the whole cast. but the only problem is too much star power. Ego would get in the way

Now this is more like it for the Superman
casting! Someone a little older!

Trucco is a lot older! Josh looks way
younger than the age he really is! Trucco
looks older!

Never would have thought of Clive for Bats!
But he has the quiet seething to play the
slightly disturbed Dark Knight!

I like someone younger for Black canary,
like Yvonne Strahovski!

I don't mind an older Superman, but Josh Brolin doesn't fit Clark Kent. Gerald Butler is an intresting choice.
Overall I love the cast.
