Moviehole
When he was cast as Batman in George Miller’s “Justice League of America”, the anointment of actor Armie Hammer to a blockbuster superhero tent pole and, more importantly, such a legendary role drew mostly arched eyebrows and head scratching.
Hammer, like most of the young cast enlisted for the doomed project, was an unknown at the time. So as great as he might have looked in the black duds, most were still dubious.
but what i dont like about the article is how it talks about only having him in the justice league film but not the solo film after that, does that imply anything happening in solo batman films *should they choose to or not* influence the story for a justice league 2?
if its completely seperate and is in no relation to a group film like the last batman trilogy then thats fine
if it is going to be related with the sequal justice movie or a superman/batman duo film *it could happen* then its a bad idea to recast batman in the solo film your just going to confused the casual audience plus people who dont read this kind of thing
but thats just me it wouldnt bother me either way it goes, merely a concern in continuity
If the director is crap then the movie will be crap. Period.
