Upcomming DC Comic films

http://www.mania.com/dc-comics-rise-...le_116531.html

Red: Morgan Freeman is currently in negotiations for the upcoming film adaption of this Wildstorm/DC book. The film stars Bruce Willis as a former black ops spy forced out of retirement by a high-tech assassin out to kill him.

Flash: Geoff Johns is currently on board to produce and consult a live action Flash film! Dan Mazau is writing the script.

Aquaman: Leo Di Crapio is producing a live action one....cuz um I guess he thinks it's not gonna bomb?

Green Hornet: Stephen Chow is no longer Kato....

Lobo: Joel Silver is producing. Hmm.. wonder if it'll be as awesome as the Lobo Para Military christmas film that's on youtube?

Also in the works:
Adam Strange
Bizarro (yes...that's right... a movie all about Bizarro Superman....uh alrighty then)
Constantine II
Green Arrow (this is ANOTHER one. The Super Max movie is still in development but I guess they decided there'd be 2 of em coming out? )
Shazam! (hmm.. I wonder if this is the same one that Dwayne Johnson was gonna be in as Black Adam? )

No. Its Dynamite Entertainment. She just doesn't research and assumes anything with Green before a word is owned by DC.

Actually Dynamite only recently got Green Hornet. DC never really had the character but there was a crossover between the 1960's Batman series with The Green Hornet series. It was like a 2 or 3 part crossover.

Charles Barkley fought Godzilla once. That doesn't mean he's a Toho creature.

I read an article about this but it didn't mention most of what yours did.

Quote:
The Losers," an action-adventure drama starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Zoe Saldana and Chris Evans, begins principal photography this week in Puerto Rico.

"Jonah Hex," a supernatural Western starring Josh Brolin, Megan Fox and John Malkovich, recently wrapped production in Louisiana.

"The Green Lantern," Warners' next big superhero tentpole, is set to star Ryan Reynolds after a long search.

Fox has picked up the TV series "Human Target," starring Mark Valley, for the fall.

And, in a rare example of a film project that has ventured off the Warners reservation, DC has set up "Red," a spy thriller to star Bruce Willis, at Summit.

Lobo would be cool as a character in a film but not the front runner. Who knows maybe it will work.

EDIT: Jonah Hex is also in the Batman TAS episode "Showdown" where he meets Ra's Al Ghul's son in the late 19th century. He's really old though, so this ep takes place after the time travel incident in JLU.

Josh Brolin is a good actor though. Too bad Megan Fox is in it. But so is John Malkovich. Odd cast but hopeful, as long as Megan keeps her trap shut.

I only read he wants to start at the beginning and end with Earths sun going to Supanova at the end of its cycle.

To the Nines: You might as well drop it. Raph's Girl will never admit that she made a blooper. If need be, she'll track back Green Hornet's lineage back to seventy-four intergalactic popes and then - without a doubt - prove that the one Techno-Priest serving under Galaxy-Pope MDMLVIII had a relationship with a Sha'Tronian barmaid who then fathered Superman's longlost sister in law: Eve-El.

As for a Lobo movie, that would rock. Seriously. I hope they go the Punisher Warzone route and just freak the f**k out with it.

That's stupid enough because that happens in millions of years but the rest of it involves the world being destroyed and Superman being the only survivor. The rest of the movie involves him fighting other kryptonians on some war world rip-off.

It's really stupid.

As an actress, Megan Fox seriously makes me cringe, despite her apparent hotness...I think it would be cool if the Jonah Hex character was maybe late twenties/30-ish or so, but with an older, more experienced love interest character. He's mature in the sense of his scars and what he's seen in his life, and this female character would compliment that darker part of him. It would add to the anything goes, "wild west" feel and make the storyline just a bit sexier in my opinion.

But that's just my wishful fanboy ranting...
