Geoff Johns Talks BOOSTER GOLD, GREEN LANTERN, WONDER WOMAN And More

DC Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns refuses to comment on the rumoured Justice League movie, but does share his thoughts on how Arrow has opened up the possibility of more small screen adaptations and hints at plans for characters like Green Lantern and Wonder Woman on the big screen!

In an interview with Collider (which can be viewed in full below), DC Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns refused to give too much away about what Warner Bros. has planned for their upcoming comic book adaptations, but did drop some very intriguing hints as to what they may have up their collective sleeve. When asked about Justice League, he would only say, "Can't really talk about it, sorry," before adding that "There are plans" for Green Lantern after the 2011 movie. As for whether Wonder Woman is still a priority - on either the small or big screen - Johns said "Absolutely" before quickly saying "Let’s move on..." when the site asked what he thought about fan favourite Gina Carano taking on the role. During the course of the interview, the comic book writer also went on to reveal that the success of Arrow has, "helped open up doors for DC and television in a very good way" and confirmed that the Booster Gold TV series is "still in development, Andrew Kreisberg is working on it right now." Ultimately, he basically told them that we'll have to wait until July's San Diego Comic Con before anything definite is announced, but it certainly sounds as if DC and Warner Bros. are working on SOMETHING big...

Exactly even Geoff didn't want to see Carano as Wonder Woman. SHE CAN'T ACT

Just watching his reactions in the interview you can tell there is a lot going on.

As long as MoS doesn't flop, and I doubt it will, stuff is going to happen.

Can't wait to see what DC/WB apparently have in store. Should be exciting. Bring it.

I wouldn't mind seeing Johns consult on certain characters, specifically Aquaman. I also like his work with Hal Jordan (I'd be totally fine with John Stewart being used as the Justice League's Green Lantern instead, though).

My pick for Wonder Woman is the woman playing Faora in MOS. Saw her in Pandorum and she is fantastic. Cant remember how to spell her name at the moment. She is surprisingly good.

when did Gina Carano become the fan favorite to play Wonder Woman ? at best she is a viable candidate for stunt double for the actress who is playing Wonder Woman.

Oh, sweet Jesus, TELL me they are going to do a Wonder Woman film and a Green Lantern sequel. PLEASE, God, let DC get their shit together and finally start putting out more movies!!!

Here's hoping Man of Steel is just the start!

No GL film until after JL. And reboot it. You dont want JL tainted with that shit
This is how I want the JL to look. At least for the first film.

Superman(Snyder version)

Batman (Batman is Batman)

Wonder Woman(Tall, powerful, intimidating but extremely attractive. No Jamie Alexander please... She's a bit overrated)

Flash(Talented, comic relief like in the cartoon)

Green Lantern(Preferrably John Stewart. A little diversity never hurt)

Aquaman(Not really part of the group, does whatever he wants)

MARTIAN MANHUNTER (The most underrated character, therefore the one who should steal the show)

Justice league

Superman
Batman
Wonder Woman
The Flash (Barry Allen)
Green Lantern (Hal Jordan)
Aquaman
Martian Manhunter

Fyck cyborg and I only say Hal over John because he has way better storylines

I've never liked Booster Gold.
Cyborg would be cool. He should be added in the JL sequel

I think DC/WB should go for an Aquaman movie. It would be unlike anything Marvel are doing. You know something along the lines of a guy who finds out he's the heir to the throne of undersea kingdom. Awesome set peace underse battles a mix of man of steel and avatar.

@Irons

The way people have been talking about the MOS trailers and any news....This will succeed!

Just dont bring Reynolds back. I liked him in GL. But the movie sucked... So O dont want there to be a connection

Supes17 - 5/8/2013, 2:15 PM
I bet Avengers 3 will be released before Justice League lmao

Yup, heard it all before. I will believe this when there is something actually announced

Supes17 - 5/8/2013, 2:20 PM
Now that I think about it, the only DC films I've really liked that have come out in the last 20 years are the Dark Knight films. That's it. And Watchmen to a certain extent.

Why are people so obsessed with having Gina Carano play Wonder Woman. Yes she was a fighter, but she has only been in one movie and they even had to dub over her voice, that is a good indication that somebody can Not act.

LEVITIKUZ,why not let johns write the script for the next GL movie?

He didn't write the script for the last film.

Please redo Green Lantern that is a easy way to bring in Martin Man Hunter!

Just give Marvel worthy competition. We're eating you up all day every day. At least me it a challenge. Make us want to be better. Captain America: The Winter Soldier Is gonna [frick]ing own.

@ DoubleD

I agree in the past DC/WB all they did was talk talk talk. But we have to thank Marvel/Disney because I think finally DC/WB are getting off their A$$e$ and have some good stuff in store for us!
