Has Justice League: Mortal Been Cancelled?

Source:  CHUD
It seems like all of the negative buzz on Justice League: Mortal, from questions about casting to George Miller's problems with Australia's tax rebate, to poor reviews of the script have taken their toll. According to CHUD, producer Joel Silver says that Justice League: Mortal is tabled for now.

Does this mean we'll never see a Justice League movie? Not at all. But it does mean that it'll probably be some time before there is any new forward movement on the film, and it will likely have a different script and cast. Perhaps Warner Bros. and DC will take a page from Marvel's book, and try to use Brandon Routh and Christian Bale as the center-piece of a Justice League film.

In the meantime, keep reading MovieWeb and SuperheroFlix for any news about future Justice League projects.

well its logical for it to be moved bak. Such a movie as this should take well planning, good casting, and awesome but awesome storyline. PLUS...if you've watched the new Incredible HUlk....Justice league is rumored in the end of the movie.

AndrewRyan, so you wrote a script, big fuckin' deal. It don't mean Shit if you just show to the rest of these school kids. so as far as i'm concerned you are nothing but another closet writer with no ambition. someone who would rather tare down what you haven't got the balls to create, with ecception to your backyard home movie with all your recess buddies.

this 3 part conversation was amazing. im glad i included myself. and travis, were not nice, were just tolerant. i just find it easier to ruin a new-b's life when they say something stupid. it entertains me beyond many great lengths. youre just a smartass who can handle it and in alot of instances, dish it back 2 fold

I'm 15 now. lol But i interact with people just fine. I have plenty of friends, they're just not into the same stuff i am, and i've come to learn that people on this site r a hell of alot nicer than people in real life. When i can drive, i'll get out more. lol

sometimes i wonder if you even know what it is your saying trav.. or possibly the world has become that dilute that a 14 year old can use "suck it" metaphorically. When i was 14 I was egging peoples houses and leaving little post it notes on peoples cars saying "how safe are your tires" but i mean I rarely do that anymore..what i'm gettin at is you should probably go ride a bike or find some human interaction, possibly an Awesom-O?

Hey son o jor-el, i am currently in the works writing my own script for this movie, so shut the fuck up. Ask anybody on this site. They've read my plot and loved it. So suck it, not really, just metaphorically. heh, heh, heh

the casting practices in hollywood are currently very sub-par, in my opinion. if they had gone forward with this we would surely have wound up with a bunch of 19 year old superheroes, and all the female leads would have been a bunch of covergirls with no soul or acting ability beneath their perfect tans and 400$ hair styles.

thats just my opinion though, im part of the 1% of america that prefers a bit of realism and grit in his movies.

Let the professionals handle it? Well they weren't doing a very good job in the first place. Every story item released about this movie was torn apart, because they were terrible.

Yes!!! This is really good news!!! Cancel the damn thing! This would have been a huge huge mistake and a waste of money!

I think Your rude comments are of no help to the situation. if you jackasses think they need a better script, when you fuckheads have never read the one they have, maybe instead of talking shit you could submit your own. If not, then shut up and let the professionals handle it.

This is some of the best news ever. When did they decide on "Justice League: Mortal" for the title? Thats retarded. Thank God they are stopping this before it ruined DC's reputation. Seriously how hard is it to pen a kick ass Justice League movie. You barely have to try. I just want to end by saying "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you"

Finally!!! Thank Christ! The word of the people triumphs again! Hopefully they'll get a better script and better actors now. And why not have Christian Bale play Batman? No one else does it better than him these days! We won't discuss the worst though... *coughGeorgeClooneycough*
