Perhaps Martian Manhunter (the other possibility THR mentions) rather than Doomsday. Rationale...
MOS was a first contact story, but it's set in the DC Universe where there should exist, factually, three Justice League members from "Unknown" but "Local" (our Solar System) civilizations. The Amazons (Diana aka Wonder Woman) and Atlantis (Arthur aka Aquaman) are of Earth, though in this MOS incarnation they could make the Amazons descendants of Kara Zor-El. Martian Manhunter is the third, from an extinct civilization on Mars.
Both WW and MM are super-powered. So it'd make more sense to go with them and perhaps The Flash, leaving Aquaman for later. Superman/Batman would be central to the movie and I suspect any other Justice League members would have cameo+ level appearances.
If Momoa's a villain, then I agree Doomsday is perhaps his best role. If Lex Luthor is also in it as he probably should be, then perhaps Lex somehow controls/uses Doomsday -- e.g., blames the Doomsday threat on Superman while also using it to kill him.
THR: Jason Momoa is in negotiations to join the cast of the untitled Batman-Superman movie [SUPE2] Doomsday? Dec 09, 17:35
this is really starting to sound desperate {nm} Dec 09, 17:53
I really like Jason. He's a nice man and a good actor. I've met him twice. I hope he gets the part. {nm} Dec 09, 18:05
not him. Warner. A throw it to the wall and see what sticks approach will not work here. {nm} Dec 09, 18:13
Got ya. {nm} Dec 09, 18:18
I disagree. You can't have a superhero movie if there is no villian. Though I am iffy on Momoa. {nm} Dec 09, 20:07
I didn't say you dont have a bad guy. I am saying you dont throw everything in but the kitchen sink just because you can. {nm} Dec 09, 20:40
I don't think they have much choice. If they tried the slow route like Marvel, there is risk of another GL. {nm} Dec 09, 21:03
it hit its margins, but I hear it fell short of their GL and thats why they are going this route {nm} Dec 09, 21:27
Oh. Didn't know that. Only went by numbers. {nm} Dec 09, 21:38
look at it from this perspective. MoS made 663 worldwide (not sure if this will copy & past) Dec 09, 21:45
Well those are difficult comps for a reboot to match! {nm} Dec 09, 22:37
this reeks of desperation (putting two of the most popular stories in one movie). There's other ways of doing this Dec 09, 21:12
I was a little iffy about cowboy "friendly" Heath Ledger pulling off the part of The Joker, but Dec 09, 21:00
That is true. I should reserve judgement till his role is actually released. He could be Cop #1 for all I know. {nm} Dec 09, 21:07
Very true. It's quite obvious you don't know anything at all Dec 10, 09:10
lost me at Badot {nm} Dec 09, 18:11
*Gadot {nm} Dec 09, 18:12
Me too, Ben Affleck was terrifying enough, but Gadot was the coup de grace for me. {nm} Dec 09, 19:21
They should have gone with Fassbender as Batman. {nm} Dec 09, 18:47
Jimmy Olson {nm} Dec 09, 17:58
Hawkman? {nm} Dec 09, 18:55
He would make a awsome Hawkman! Dec 09, 21:01
Perhaps Martian Manhunter (the other possibility THR mentions) rather than Doomsday. Rationale... Dec 10, 04:09
He's gonna be Parasite. {nm} Dec 10, 06:17
