  • Green Lantern casting update meshes with JLA/Smallville

    Angela Bassett has been cast as Dr. Amanda Waller, leader of Checkmate and frequent nemesis of the Justice League.

    Wiki on the character....

    Her introduction ties in nicely with rumors of a Suicide Squad movie being part of DC's new plan to integrate its characters Marvel-style.

    In Smallville Dr. Waller has been played by Pam Grier, and her actions eventually revealed as trying to get the Justice League to form as a successor to the Justice Society and a counter to a coming apocalypse - this in the Absolute Justice movie/episode. Of course, Apocolips is a play on apocalypse and the planet ruled by Darkseid, and its inclusion could also bring in New Genesis.

    This season of Smallville is getting real interesting, and rather dark.
