10 Intriguing DC Movies That Were Never Made

Currently, we're seeing more comic book movies being produced than ever before – but there are still an enormous amount that have slipped through the net over the years and failed to get made. For instance, because starring as Green Lantern and Deadpool clearly isn’t enough superhero roles for one man, Ryan Reynolds was also at one point set to play The Flash in a movie based on a David Goyer script. After years in development hell, The Flash movie is now about to be made as part of the DC Extended Universe, though with Ezra Miller in the role of Barry Allen.

George Miller came back into the limelight recently with his critically-acclaimed Mad Max: Fury Road. As such, many people now regret that we never saw the Justice League film that he was set to direct.

Separate from The Dark Knight movies that were going at the time, Justice League: Mortal would have seen the superhero team go up against evil mind-controlling businessman Maxwell Lord. All the main roles were filled, including Armie Hammer as Batman, D.J. Cotrona as Superman, Megan Gale as Wonder Woman and Common as Green Lantern. The movie was set to go ahead until the 2007 Writers Guild of America Strike put a stopper on production.

We’re all geared up for the upcoming Justice League two-parter at the moment, but a George Miller-led take on the characters is a truly tantalizing concept. Intriguingly, Miller has stated that he is still up for doing a superhero movie in the future.

Fingers crossed!
