Cavill stated, "The universe doesn't make things happen. If I don't get the job, I'm not the right guy for the job. You've got to be careful not to be that actor who's like, 'I'm going to do something really different' and it's just c**p. Don't try and be different, just play a character well."
The filming will also include Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Jason Mamoa as Aquaman, and Ray Fisher as Cyborg. They will be joining Cavill, Affleck, and Gadot for the upcoming "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" film.
Meanwhile, it was confirmed that the screenplay has already been complete. It was written by Zack Snyder and Chris Terrio. Terrio said, "Chris would talk and I would draw it, and it was basically this weird mural of the movies with no words."
The film is expected to compete with the Marvel Cinematic universe. The Justice League will be rivaled against the "Avengers."
The Justice League is expected to premiere on Nov. 17, 2017.
