Recently, we had the announcement that a Hawkman film was being scripted at Warner Bros., joining fellow DC characters Batman, Superman, and Green Lantern on a trip to the big screen (as well as plans for Wonder Woman and Flash films, among others). Bleeding Cool now has some details surrounding the project, comparing it to Indiana Jones and The Da Vinci Code, as well as talking about the weapons the character uses and briefly about a possible love interest.

Part INDIANA JONES/DA VINCI CODE, part GHOST tentpole about the fictional superhero that appears in D.C. Comic books. He used archaic weaponry and large, artificial wings attached to a harness made of the Nth metal that allows flight. Most incarnations of Hawkman work closely with a partner/romantic interest named Hawkgirl or Hawkwoman in his fight against supervillains. Based on the DC comic.


So do you guys like the idea of a Hawkman film? Sound off your thoughts below in the comments.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,didn't expect dc to go for hawkman over the likes of the flash & captain marvel.

@marvel72 I agree, Flash, Wonder Woman and even Captain Marvel are all more well known than Hawkman (I wonder if anyone outside of the fanboy audience has ever heard of Hawkman ;P).

Well I think Smallville garnered interest in Hawkman to be honest and he was at the forefront of the latest Brightest Day arc. This could be a good flick kind of quasi Indiana Jones, Tomb Raider, National Treasure with a little Return of the Mummy thrown in for good measure.

I think it's a tough sell. But after Green Lantern it's maybe safe to say that a lot of cosmic-superheroes will follow. I am curious on how this will turn out and what it will mean for a potential JLA. Hawks beyond badass so I would expect a good deal of fighting and him being too stubborn for his own good.

Its not coming instead of a Flash movie guys.The Flash is already being prepped.The same guys who wrote the script for GL are working on it.
Hawkman could be cool if done with a straight face.

@marvel72

AGREED! {for the Flash part atleast} I guess WB realized Hawkman was easier to translate to film? *shrug*

I'm glad they included the comparison to 'Indiana Jones' and'The DaVinci Code'. The way I look at it is: 'Green Lantern' was approached as a Space Opera, not just as another Superhero film. 'Hawkman' will be no different, the archeologist adventure/mystery{?} will set it apart from the crowd and definitely make for a unique film in a future saturated market.

Is Hawkman going to have a CGI suit too? I'd rather see Plastic Man. At least that could be funny. Or just do Hawkwoman then at least we can see a half naked woman with wings kicking ass.

i'd rather WW, flash, or captain marvel, green arrow too! not hawkman... but what ever...

Look Good idea but here are some things they should remember. 1- Hawk Man is a very masculine and hard loving Man. He and Hawk Girl have a sweet and sensual relationship. So it should definitely be used in the Movie.
2- The man uses Melee Weapons like Maces and Morning Stars.
3- He does use his fist very well. Don't be afraid to let him mix it up a bit.
4- He in one of his Incarnations is a brilliant Archeologist. He is also a Master at solving Mysteries. Let him do so.
5- Hawk Girl has a distinct mind and talents of her own she should be presented as a full partner and not just window dressing.
Just some Ideas from a Long time fan of the Hero's:)

Are they planning to make some Justice League movie or something or rather with him in it?

Fudge me icecream! This is huge! Soon WW will come! I can't see Hawkman being put into development and not Wonder Woman. I wonder if this will make Aquaman seem more likely as well. After all both Hall and Curry's alternative identies are almost equally a hard-sell. Great news!

CaptainSmith @ GRIF @ Agreed!

I'm hoping though we get HAWKWORLD BLADE RUNNER type style!

Russel Crowe or Gerald Butler is the type of man who should be Carter Hall! We need a manly man! He needs to be so manly that Chuck Norris seems like a catholic schoolgirl in comparison! Awesome news btw!

if they wanna write a movie about a clown like this instead of working on putting out a flash movie then there high

i'd much rather see a Green Arrow movie then this guy

Oh this is f-king awesome news :D Finally Dc and Warner are gonna do the right thing and give us the the dc universe on film. A new Supes, JLA, Flash and Wonder Woman in the workss!! Got a feeling dc movies will have a mature feeling to them unlike Marvel, while they feel great they are very comic bookish...which I love too!!
Frogman
Frogman - 5/30/2011, 3:03 PM
Why do Green Lantern/Flash/Wonder Woman have to be instead of Superman and Batman? can't we have kick ass films/sequels to Superman and Batman AS WELL as these new films?
Berger45
Berger45 - 5/30/2011, 3:03 PM
@ThePuzzler - I believe Flash is under development, script-wise. So he is coming out soon too!

CATMAN @ Exactly dude it is awesome news!

Wow, this movie has awesomeness written all over it! Hollywood's creative thinkers didn't have to reach deep for this one, I bet.

Follow my logic:

Man + wings + a huge bat cave styled nest + fluffy feathers everywhere = everything that awesome 80's flick 'The Boy Who Could Fly' was ...but with wings! The Phantom, other than having a fondness of wearing the color purple, has nothing on Hawkman. Make this movie happen!

This would be such a bad move on DC's part.

First: Flash, WW, and Green Arrow, THEN maybe Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, and finally Hawkman, if CBM's are still Hollywood's thing by then

I'm down for a Hawkman feature!
Gerard Butler for Hawkman!

I better see a Flash and Green Arrow movie sometime soon though!

Flash and Aquaman are already in stages of development. Green Arrow could possibly be too, same for Wonder Woman. If they stick to the Golden Age version it will be a fairly damn good movie.

I think the next ten years will be filled with DC movies (can't wait). Hawkman is an awesome character. I would love to see him and Hawkgirl/woman bloody up some bad guys, and the film makers definitly need to go the Egyptian route rather than the Thanagar route although I wouldn't mind if they were able to incorparate both into the movie version of Hawkman.

Id rather see Flash, Green Arrow and Aquaman first, but that's cool.
