After months of rumors online, the gist of the plot of the forthcoming live-action Justice League of America movie has been revealed, including confirmation of which characters will be in the George Miller-directed film.
According to Entertainment Weekly, which says it "has obtained an early version of the script, all seven original members of the Justice League -- Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and the Martian Manhunter -- are featured in an origins story about the superhero conglomerate. The plot revolves around villainous businessman Maxwell Lord and involves cyborgs called OMACs (One-Man Army Corps), who can take over humans and turn them into killing machines. There are epic battle scenes between Superman and Batman, as well as Superman and Wonder Woman, and League could spawn a slew of additional franchises if it's successful."
Kieran and Michele Mulroney penned the screenplay. JLA will reportedly begin filming this February in Australia for a summer 2009 release.

If you can't wait for the JLA movie, check out this DVD with film trailers for "World's Finest" featuring Superman and Batman; and "Grayson" about the 'death' of Batman. It will tide your appetite over until (if?) the release of the JLA movie!
