It’s been awhile since Guillermo del Toro finished his script for the big screen adaptation of the Dark Universe’s Justice League Dark. Heading into some weekend readings with Warner Bros & pending a positive reaction, the movie would be getting the greenlight to begin production. Now we have word on which mystical DC characters might be making up the team.
FREE TWITTER SCOOP: Your JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK members are: JOHN CONSTANTINE, ZATANNA, BRAND/DEADMAN, & JASON BLOOD. #DarkUniverse #HOTRUMOR

Constantine and Dead Man have been mentioned by Del Toro several times in the past & were all but guaranteed to be on the roster, while fan-favourite Zatanna was also expected. Jason Blood (aka Etrigan the Demon) is probably the closest thing to a surprise on this list, but perhaps most shocking are the characters that are absent.
There were high hopes that the likes of Swamp Thing & The Spectre would make the cut, and at the very least I think some fans expected more than the 4 characters that were named. Of course that’s just the starting lineup, and more may join the ranks as the story progresses. For now this is just a rumor until it becomes official, but if this was to be your Justice League Dark, what would you think?
