That JUSTICE LEAGUE: MORTAL Doc Has One Thing Standing In Its Way

Director Ryan Unicomb has been working on his Justice League: Mortal documentary since the beginning on the year, but if the movie ever hopes to see the light of day there's one pretty significant hurdle that still has to be overcome: Warner Bros.! Click on for more...

Back in May we heard about Ryan Unicomb and producers Aaron Cater and Steven Caldwell's plans to get a documentary focusing on George Miler's defunct Justice League movie off the ground. Like the recent The Death of Superman Lives doc, it would take a behind-the-scenes look at the production and ultimately what led to it being shut down.

The project already has producers, writers, and private investors on board, and recently Unicomb was able to secure the services of Indiegogo to help with a crowd funding campaign - but they still need the go ahead from Warner Bros.

Though preliminary research has already begun (the doc's Twitter account has even shared some concept art), unless they get the studio's permission to use the various costume designs, BTS stills and shots of the cast - which included the likes of Armie Hammer as Batman, Megan Gale as Wonder Woman, D.J. Cotrona as Superman, and Adam Brody as the Flash - then there will be no documentary.

Still, if they signed off on the Superman Lives flick there's no reason that they wouldn't do the same for this - unless of course there's more bad blood there than we've been led to believe!

Would you like to see this happen? Sound off below.

This is the one documentary of a movie I want to see. Hopefully WB gives the director the go-ahead.

I'd see this. Would be cool if it gets released around the same time as BvS.

@Doopie @hershey


THat producer was Jon Peters, he was the one with the biarre ideas in Superman Lives, such as Superman fighting Pandas and the Giant SPider which ended up in Wild Wild West, another film he produced.

He was Executive producer for Man Of Steel, although I'm not sureif any of his ideas made it through.

Yep, Jon Peters what a guy! He was exec producer in name only tho on MOS, apparently Chris Nolan wanted him nowhere near the film, but he was involved due to WB honouring some old contract he was involved with

DC should make some of these into animated features and include production photos in the special features. I mean ... I don't think anyone that was cast in this is doing anything too time consuming these days.

This is actually a really great watch, it's Kevin smith describing his time on Superman Lives with Jon Peters:

ALthough If he used his connections to get my all time favourite crush Salma Hayek into the DC movie universe I would be happy.

This film would have sucked, the cast alone is horrible and George Miller can only do great Mad Max movies everything else he directed has been mediocre, while Snyder has created 3 great and diverse films in DOTD, 300 and Watchmen, a good animated movie, one crappy movie and a solid reboot/origin with MOS (brought down by Goyer only, Snyder saved MOS) so trolls like dev7 can bitch all they want, you're getting Snyder's JL movies so get used to it.

I don't get the fascination of wanting to know more about failed adoptions of Superhero property. Like seeing Nick Cage in costume as Meth Superman.

To ALL of you who say this film would have been better then what Snyder will be putting out. Please, put down the pipe and get some fresh air. Really? You guys think Arm and Hammer would be a good Batman? How'd he do in Lone Ranger? How many great films has he been in? Social Network was Eisenberg's film. Hammer just cashed his paycheck with his shitty performance.

This world has gone to shit with all you weak ass supposed fans. It's you lame "fans" that give the good guys a bad name with all your shit talking.

So John Schnepp basically confirmed that George Miller is helming MOS 2 over on Collider Heroes.

Anybody know if this is true?

@BatfanAZWI Hammer isn't horrible, but Lone Ranger sure was.
Hammer as Batman could've worked along with Brody as Flash. And I'm sure Keays-Byrne would have been great as MM. The rest of the cast is pretty questionable at best.

Sidenote: I could see Hammer as Shazam or perhaps Hal Jordan.
I'd like to see Keays-Byrne voice someone like Braniac or Darkseid.
And Miller should do a film for DC. Not sure about Superman though.

Philip - 8/20/2015, 7:51 AM
@hershey I'm not too sure about MOS2 either.
I do, however, think Miller would do a great job with Green Lantern Corps.

He created an amazing and interesting dystopian world with Mad Max, and I'm sure he could make a equally interesting GL-world.

Also, Keays-Byrne could also voice Kilowog.

Hopefully this gets to happen, because I'd like to see the super suits. Another thing is because of all the interviews with the cast it'd have.

We won't see this until WB has released a string of successful JLA movies.

It's possible they're not giving the go ahead because there are story points being reused in BvS.

Gusto, did you see that former Lions QB Erik Kramer shot himself last night?

It was an attempted suicide but he lived.
