15 questions we have about a 'Justice League' movie

How will Warner Bros. handle Superman, Batman and the other heroes?

Would the Batman in this Justice League be the new "movie" Batman?

One of the major hiccups for Warner Bros. is how to handle Batman in a "Justice League" film. It's unclear how long the studio was planning on waiting to re-launch the character on the big screen following Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight Rises" in July, but speculation centered on the next series of films being adaptations of "Batman Beyond" (set in the far future) or another non-traditional version. Will DC have to just say "screw it" and hire yet another actor to wear Batman's cape and cowl? Whoever it is would be the fifth different actor in a span of just over 20 years.

    They shouldn't make Justice League, they should go for straight camp and make SuperFriends.

    They had a Justice League of America TV Movie in 1997 which people have referred to as "Friends" with superpowers. But it wasn't entirely bad. The lineup was Flash, Guy Gardner Green Lantern, Atom, Fire, and Ice, led by Martian Manhunter as their leader and father figure.

    Seriously though, with all of the characters that have come through the JLA, it might be a better and more successful film without Superman or Batman. Batman has his own franchise and the Nolan Batman wouldn't really work in a team movie. Make Wonder Woman the leader, or how about call the film 'Justice Society' and let Uncle Sam head them up- find someone who can play Uncle Sam in Clint Eastwood mode.

      Joel M Also, I would like to see Hawkman or Hawkwoman in a JLA film.

    They should get Gerard Butler as Aquaman.
