Justice League Film: Casting Earth’s Protectors

2. Aquaman- Jai Courtney

Best known for his work on Sparatcus: Blood and Sand, Jai Courtney, is what I believe, to be the next Chris Hemsworth. He€™s a relative unknown who can really spring into stardom. Also, he€™s Australian just like him as well. However, unlike Hemsworth, a superhero film won€™t be the door to his stardom. Courtney is already set to star alongside Bruce Willis in A Good Day to Die Hard in 2013, work alongside Tom Cruise in the upcoming Jack Reacher, and work with Aaron Eckhart in I, Frankenstein. It seems as if this guy is going to take Hollywood by storm soon. He€™s looking to be a hot commodity. Why not grab him? When you see this guy you€™re looking at Aquaman. Courtney€™s has the look and physical presence to play the King of the Seven Seas. He€™s a big guy. Akin to Hemsworth with Thor, when you see him you say, that€™s Thor. When you see Courtney, you say that€™s Aquaman. He€™s used to action with his work on Spartacus and if course his upcomoing work. He portrayed a gladiator on Spartacus. With that, comes a character of great anger and wrath. We all know, Aquaman is known for his great temper. Besides that, Courtney is a young talent who can bring something to the table for Aquaman. He has the whole package. Notable Mention: Garret Hedlund
