Justice League: Mortal - The Movie That Almost Happened

Essential TV

In 2007 a live action Justice League movie was greenlit that would have been directed by Mad Max: Fury Road's George Miller, starring Armie Hammer as Batman in a cast of mostly young and unknown actors. The movie was cancelled just days before the shoot was set to begin, leaving cast and crew heartbroken, and robbing fans of what may have been a faithful adaptation of the world's greatest super team-up. If it had continued, Justice League would have brought Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, The Flash, Martian Manhunter, and Green Lantern together on the big screen a year after Marvel's Iron Man and three years before Avengers. Let's discuss what could have been one of the greatest comic book movies of all time ... and one that would have changed the course of superhero films forever.
