Though it was inevitably scrapped , the film has remained in the minds of DC fan as something of a missed opportunity andplot point have been made availableto the public over the years .

DespiteJustice League Mortalnever date the light of twenty-four hours , the film made quite a bit of advancement before it was cancel , including bestow together a bright cast ( include D.J. Cotrona as Superman , Armie Hammer as Batman andJay Baruchelas villain Maxwell Lord ) and a nominate budget of nearly $ 300 million .

While address withHappy Sad Confused(viaComic Book ) , Baruchel opened up on whatJustice League Mortalwould have had in store for sports fan , let in the Wonder Woman V Superman fight , with Lord controlling the latter . Explaining how this would have sour in the picture , Baruchel revealed :

“ There ’s a scene where Maxwell Lord brainwashes Clark and all of a sudden this guy wire ’s got Superman as a artillery . But in order for me to do this - to get in to a Kryptonian brain - I begin bleed out of every f*cking orifice because it take that much to get into the head of a Kryptonian . And then I turn him into Red - Eye Superman , and there ’s this liberal a * * fight between him and Wonder Woman where he breaks her wrists . ”

After the factious reply toBatman V Superman : Dawn of Justicelast year , it ’s easy to marvel how much more well received Miller ’s fighting between friends inJustice League Mortalwould have been .

Either elbow room , more patch details for the canceledJustice League Mortalcontinue to trickle out even 10 years after it was announced and this will sure enough get more DC devotee nostalgic for Miller ’s shelved superhero moving picture . Perhaps one twenty-four hour period DC will turn the unproduced handwriting into an animated picture or even give Miller his pellet on another DC projection , but neither seem very probable justly now . At present , sports fan will have to use their imagery to envision one of the bighearted “ what if ” scenario in recent film story withJustice League Mortal .
