Scott Rudin to Produce 'Justice League Dark'

By: Dave Clark

A project that has been eagerly anticipated (by me at least) but with no real news being reported about is Justice League Dark. There were rumblings that Guillermo Del Toro had written a script and was on board to direct, but now with all the work he's got on his plate, he'll transition over to a Producer role along with Scott Rudin (Steve Jobs, No Country For Old Men). The Tracking Board is reporting that Rudin is currently looking to update the script and begin the search for a director for the film. Not much of the plot is known but if its anything like the DC Comics source material, it will revolve heavily around magic. The site also reports that it will begin shooting in 2016.

Justice League Dark has a roster that consists of John Constantine, Zatanna, Swamp Thing, Madame Xanadu, Deadman, Frankenstein and a few others. No word on the film's roster, but any of those would be welcomed by me! What do you guys think? Are you excited at the prospect of this film? Are you saddened that GDT won't be directing it anymore?
