Gerard Johnstone is the best pick imo. Good at mixing humour and darkness/horror together. Espinosa even though he has more "Hollywood" films he wouldn't translate the script to film well. edit: The villain definitely sounds like Antón Arcane. " Michael Gilio’s script reportedly begins with a series of ancient tombs being stolen by a madman hell-bent on humanity’s end. Due to this, occult detective John Constantine seeks out a group of heroes that specialises in the mystic and arcane in order to save the world including Swamp Thing, Deadman, Zatanna, Etrigan the Demon and potentially Madama Xanadu" www.darkhorizons.com/two-directors-up-for-justice-league-dark/

Ugh. First, Red Son, then Flashpoint, and now this shit? WB just REALLY doesn't want to let this be any fun, do they?

I think Espinosa can make a good movie if he has something good to work with script-wise.

The Hellboy movies made the same concept of dark fantasy superhero fiction a blast. I don't see Del Toro's name on this. They keep deciding to make movies out of fucking spinoffs no one cares about, instead of focusing on making movies about their heroes, as in, the primary versions of their heroes. I give up. I just give up. This is shit. They should be focusing on stuff like The New Gods, Martian Manhunt, and other such superheroes, not this shit.

One of the few comic book movies I am really looking forward to along with Batgirl, Nightwing, Razor, Spawn, Batman, Avengelyne, Painkiller Jane and the Crow and it will be awesome to FINALLY see another live action version of Zatanna (gasp a powerful female character. Angry Male Virgins better run for cover.), Swamp Thing and an actual Horror Superhero movie which is very rare. Zatanna is one of the most powerful superheroes in DC and hopefully this leads to 'Zatanna' and 'Swamp Thing' solo movies. A 'Solomon Grundy' Horror movie would also be awesome.

That looks kind of cool. Is it good? So Cyborg is the only white member?

I was looking forward to this when Doug Liman was still attached, these new choices don't seem very inspired.

Of either guys work I've only seen Safe House and it was nothing special but I didn't hate it.
I can't wait for this film and I just hope they do it justice. I'd love for Matt Ryan to return as Constantine because he's just so good in that role but he doesn't have the big hollywood box office appeal so I'm not holding my breath on that. But considering Constantine is probably my favorite character in DC comics my feelings on this film will likely ride or die with whether or not I like his portrayal. Give me this over another Batman or Superman movie any day.
The animated movie they released earlier this year was pretty damn good too.

i can't believe you guys liked the animated one. it was like adolescent fanfiction. if that's the most we can hope for out of the live action film i would prefer that it doesn't materialize at all.

Gone! the form of man Rise, the Demon Etrigan!" Will be a dream come true. Yeh I can't wait for this movie too.

I would like to see a JLD movie. But i know, they would screw up Constantine again. WB seems to have problems with the character.
