'Justice League' movie news: Colin Farrell and Michiel Huisman rumored to join cast

The "Justice League" movie is currently under production with Zack Snyder directing the film. However, according to a report from Cinema Blend, there are indications that the film could grow as two actors, Colin Farrell and "Game of Thrones" star Michiel Huisman, are rumored to be joining the cast.

According to the report, the rumors were first posted on a Russian Twitter account named Cut the Crap TV. When translated, the captions indicate that the two actors are currently entering negotiations to join the film's cast, although their exact roles have yet to be revealed.

Cinema Blend points out that the information should be taken with caution as there are no verifications of truth as of the time being. It is stated that the news is dubious coming from a Russian account instead of an account from the United States such as an account of a cast member or production crew member.

If the rumors do prove true, however, it is speculated that Farrell might be playing either the villain Steppenwolf, although his involvement will be restricted to motion capture and voice over work, or the DC hero John Constantine.

It is further pointed out that Farrell was in talks to play Constantine back when Warner Bros. Pictures planned to do a "Justice League Dark" film which would focus on Constantine, Zatanna, Swamp Thing and other supernatural DC heroes. The film has since been altered and will be an animated feature instead of a live-action project.

Huisman, who plays Daario Naharis on "Game of Thrones," is speculated to portray another of Lex Luthor's (Jesse Eisenberg) lackies given that Lex is in prison by the time the events of "Justice League" take place. However, if he is indeed cast there is the possibility of him playing someone else entirely.

"Justice League" opens in theaters on Nov. 17 2017.

If you look at the Church of England’s communications all that it ever seems to highlight is the good works that Christians do to improve the temporal well-being of their neighbours. It is right to highlight these things, but they are not the primary reason for the Church’s existence.
