Justice League movie overload

Boy, does IESB have some thick and juicy rumors regarding the new Justice League movie that is in the works. I should warn you that there are some potential plot spoilers, so read on at your on risk. And, keep that big grain of salt handy, as these are clearly only rumors at this point. According to IESB, Bruce Willis is in the running to play Lex Luthor, with Mel Gibson in the running for Maxwell Lord. Also, Martian Manhunter will play a part in the league, as he's one of George Miller's favorites. The league will be younger and more brash, which could've explained the original plan of Flash being killed (unfortunately, that's being changed since that part of the script was leaked). And IESB isn't stopping there. Word on the streets is that WB is going to promote the hell out of this movie, and cast some big names. Already, names such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Jessica Biel, Jake Gyllenhaa and Scarlett Johansson are being tossed around for various roles within the movie (in addition to Willis and Gibson). This JLA will consist of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash (Wally West), Green Lantern (Jon Stewart), Aquaman and Martian Manhunter, and the story seems to follow the OMAC part of the Infinite Crisis storyline. Everything seems to be larger than life, and that doesn't surprise me. WB would be stupid not to try and capitalize on an epic JLA movie, since comic book movies are all the rage. Hopefully, this doesn't turn out to be a train wreck. And your assumptions are correct, that is a gratuitous picture of Jessica Biel (I did mention her in the posting though). JLA spoilers (major spoilers)
