Colin Farrell, Michiel Huisman and Charles Dance rumoured for Justice League

July 7, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Now, be sure to take this with a healthy pinch of salt, but according to rumours, Colin Farrell (True Detective) is in talks to join the cast of Zack Snyder’s Justice League, alongside a couple of Game of Thrones stars in Michiel Huisman and Charles Dance.

The reports come by way of CutTheCrapTV and Wayne Enterprises, neither of which appear to have any track record with casting scoops, and as yet there’s been no corroboration from any other reliable, proven sources.

This isn’t the first time that Farrell – who played Bullseye in the 2003 Daredevil movie –  has been linked to a DC role, with a rumour back in November of last year suggesting he was in the frame to play John Constantine in the Justice League Dark movie.

Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

Justice League will reunite Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice stars Henry Cavill as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Ray Fisher as Cyborg, Jason Mamoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth and Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor alongside J.K. Simmons (Whiplash) as Commissioner Gordon, Amber Heard (The Danish Girl) as Mera, Willem Dafoe (Spider-Man) as Vulko and Julian Lewis Jones (Stella) in an as-yet-unrevealed role. It is set for release on November 17th 2017.
