Why do you think they use John for the cartoon and not Hal? It's so they can appear less caucasian and more diverse. They'll do the same for the movie.
Johns inclusion was for stupid reasons though, diverstiy is overated...go with waths best fot the movie. The green lantern everybody knows is Jordan, not to mention John isnt that powerful so it would kind of defeat the purpose of uniting the most powerful superheors under one buidling if u have a mid tier like John.
Why aren't Brandon Routh and Christian Bale playing Superman and Batman, respectively? I hate the lack of continuity between the movies.
The Hollywood Reporter says that a slew of young actors are testing for the roles of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, Green Lantern and the Martian Manhunter in George Miller's big screen Justice League adaptation. The director is seeing 35-40 actors for roles in the Warner Bros. comic book movie from Sunday through Monday.Included in the casting sessions are: Adam Brody ("The O.C."😉, Joseph Cross (Running With Scissors), D.J. Cotrona ("Windfall"😉, Mary Elizabeth Winstead (Grindhouse), Michael Angarano (Sky High), Teresa Palmer (The Grudge 2), Max Thieriot (Jumper) and rapper Common.
The trade adds that the cast of NBC's "Friday Night Lights" is well-represented as well, with Minka Kelly, Adrianne Palicki and Scott Porter also among those testing for parts.
Miller is reportedly looking for the young actors to grow into their roles over the course of several movies. The director is due to present his findings to the studio midweek.

Well to be honest, to todays generation, John stewart is the more famous lantern. Three years on Cartoon network has almost wiped away any memory of hal in the minds of millions of viewers. To be honest i'd like vixen or black lightning in the movie anyway. They are more original than another freaking green lantern.

I wonder what the costumes will look like. In live action, many of the Justice League costumes will look silly ( see Wonder Woman.) An Ultimates look, perhaps?
IMO, Ultimates style is too bland. I don't care to see everyone in black and gray leather.

Why the spolier tag, unless someone is signed for sure...They are also talking to Rupert Evans (of HELLBOY fame) to play Superman.
All these young actors...what's going on?
She has signed on, unless for some reason I've gotten bad intel which I doubt. As for Evans its being reported that he has been turned down to play Supes. I think with these young actors its because Warner's wants to have a big budget, which in itself doesn't mean much. More casting announcements should be forthcoming some.

Its not just bad intel, but Teresa Palmer is just like any other casting choice like Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Megan Gale. I really don't think they know exactly what they want.
