A few months ago, DC and Warner Bros. announced that one of the next movies that is in the works for their animated universe is none other than the fan-favorite video game, “Injustice Gods Among Us”.
While many fans were ecstatic about Injustice becoming an animated movie, we didn’t get any news or information about the upcoming animated movie, until now.
The upcoming animated movie is based on the Netherrealm Studios’ Injustice Gods Among Us: Year One comic who was written by Tom Taylor.
For those who don’t know, Injustice takes place on an alternate Earth where the Joker has tricked Superman into killing Lois Lane and sending the hero down a dark and brutal road. This Superman decides to control Earth and ends up having Batman and his allies attempt to stop him.
The cast for the upcoming animation is;
- Justin Hartley as Superman
- Anson Mount as Batman
- Laura Bailey as Lois Lane & Rama Kushna
- Zach Callison as Damian & Jimmy Olsen
- Brian T. Delaney as Green Lantern
- Brandon Michael Hall as Cyborg
- Edwin Hodge as Mr. Terrific & Killer Croc
- Oliver Hudson as Plastic Man
- Gillian Jacobs as Harley Quinn
- Yuri Lowenthal as Mirror Master, Flash & Shazam
- Derek Phillips as Nightwing & Aquaman
- Kevin Pollak as Joker & Jonathan Kent
- Anika Noni Rose as Catwoman
- Reid Scott as Green Arrow & Victor Zsasz
- Faran Tahir as Ra’s Al Ghul
- Fred Tatasciore as Captain Atom
- Janet Varney as Wonder Woman
- Andrew Morgado as Mirror Master Soldier.
This is a huge list of names, some I’m excited to see portray the characters, like Justin Hartley, he’s portrayed Green Arrow and Aquaman and now has added Superman to that list, I’m excited to hear Yuri portray The Flash and Shazam.
