Earlier today, we speculated about some of the DC characters who would fit nicely into a Justice League movie, when and if one actually happens. Part of the fun of these films, now that Marvel has set the standard of having a larger-than-life cinematic universe, is watching to see which of your favorite characters might pop up, be referenced or even turn out to be instrumental to the plot.But some characters just don’t work for some movies.Justice League will be a movie with at least a half-dozen lead characters (assuming Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern and a villain), many of whom will need introduction. There will likely be at least one or two more than that, since both fans and DC/Warner see seven as the magic number for the team.That could be problematic, especially if you add characters to the mix who either need a lot of character development to work, or who don’t fit the tone set by the rest of the film and the rest of the team. So even if you love a character, and want to see them on the big screen, this might not be the right time or place to do either that character or the film justice.Here are some of our favorites for that last category.HawkmanHe’s a bit like Ant-Man; while he may be iconic, and usually associated with the team, his powers are a bit on the unimpressive side and his backstory requires more time and energy than he really justifies for the first movie. Maybe a second film, tying together the various Egyptian artifacts of the DC Universe, could feature Black Adam and Metamorpho and the Hawks.
