Is this thing on?

May 16th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized It sounds like the JLA movie has been cancelled. Really upsetting; not just because I love the series, and love superhero movies, but also because I bought this cool domain and put this site together. Oh well. According to Adam Brody ( who was slated to play The Flash ), part of the decision to put this project on indefinite hold was financial; with the possibility of a new Superman movie, DC doesn't want to compete with itself. That makes sense. It's really too bad, and ultimately I think the Avengers movie alluded to at the end of Ironman is a better idea; have the first of each of the superheroes' movies end with them being "called up" to the major group. You go, Marvel. ( Apparently Ironman / Tony Stark has a cameo in the Incredible Hulk movie due out soon. I imagine so will Nick Fury. The Hulk is part of the Avengers ).

    Hey, I was just reading on ign.com an interveiw with Adam Brody, and there was no mention of a cancelation of the movie. Whats your source as I was really looking forward to the movie? By the way, thanks for the site!

    Hmm.

    Ok, on re-reading the interview ( the one I linked to in the beginning of that post ), it doesn’t specifically say “dude, it’s so cancelled.” But it does say

    And that’s before we even get to the logistics of the actual production, which is ultimately what doomed it. Recently, Adam Brody, who, while not a major star, was the biggest name attached to the film, spoke to Empire Online about why Justice League: Mortal went belly up.

    So, yeah, that’s my source; it looks cancelled.
