Justice League of America

12/3/08 - The Dark Horizons Web site retracted its story, based on an anonymous source, that Australian director George Miller has dropped off the proposed Justice League movie.  Miller's representatives denied to the site that Miler appeared on the Australian Sunrise Morning Show or that he discussed anything to do with Justice League or Mad Max, as previously reported.  The representative added that League and Max are "being seriously worked on."

12/1/08 - Director George Miller confirmed to the Sydney-based morning talk show Sunrise that he's no longer involved in the proposed Justice League movie in any capacity.  Miller indicated that if the project does get going again, he expects that it'll be recast as "the studios seem to want bigger stars in their superhero movies now."  Miller also admitted that he'd like to work with Mel Gibson on something again, and while Gibson doesn't want to do the Mad Max script he wrote, he hasn't given up on that possibility just yet.

12/31/06 - There's a lot of crazy stuff going on with this film.  Warner Brothers has hired writers Kiernan and Michele Mulroney to pen the script for its hoped-for Justice League of America movie.  The franchise features the superhero team of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, the Flash, the Green Lantern and the Martian Manhunter, among other heroes. The studio isn't saying which ones may be included in the film.
