Justice League of America to start filming in Early 2008? 2007-08-20 07:01:01 It has been reported that a screenplay for the proposed Justice League of America movie has been finished and received a warm welcome from Warner Bros. Although it doesn’t seem right to make this movie until the Superman and Batman franchises die down, the film looks like it might be fast tracked into production. Both Christian Bale and Brandon Routh have contract stipulations that include an option for a third “ensemble” movie. Christopher Nolan is highly unlikely to give up on a third Batman film to lend Bale over for the Justice League of America movie and Bryan Singer has insisted that The Man of Steel will be filmed next. IESB are insisting that the Justice League of America film will start shooting in early 2008 with George Miller directing. We’ll have to wait and see!
