>Warner Bros. Pictures is looking to make a feature based on super team the
>Justice League of America, hiring writing duo Kiernan and Michele Mulroney
>to write the script, reports Variety. It's the first major action the studio
>has taken on the project.
>
>The feature film is bound to include some combination of DC's most iconic
>superheroes, although the studio wouldn't confirm which ones they might be.
>It's unlikely that the studio and DC Comics, a division of Warner, would opt
>to feature second-tier characters.
>
>Since its inception in 1960, JLA has featured almost every major hero in the
>DC Comics universe, although the core team has largely remained the same:
>Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, Green Lantern and Martian
>Manhunter.
>
>The heroes typically band together to fight alien menaces or groups of
>supervillains.
>
>"The Justice League of America has been a perennial favorite for generations
>of fans, and we believe their appeal to film audiences will be as strong and
>diverse as the characters themselves," Warner president of production Jeff
>Robinov said in announcing the hiring of the Mulroneys.
>
>The trade says that in taking on the ambitious project, Warner faces several
>conundrums.
>
>Now that the Batman and Superman film franchises have been revived, does the
>studio go after Christian Bale (Batman Begins) and Brandon Routh (Superman
>Returns) to star in a Justice League pic? The studio is also trying hard to
>bring Wonder Woman to the big screen.
>
>To a large degree, casting will depend upon the story arc for the JLA
>feature and at what point in the superheroes' lives the plot takes place.

I don't get - AT ALL - what's up with the superhero movies. I don't see very many adults going to see them. I mean, I see the lines of people when the movies are released, but I'm not seeing many adults.
