Back in February, it was confirmed that principal photography onJustice Leaguewill begin in April, but, nearly two months after shooting has started, we haven’t heard much about the movie. Over the weekend, DC Films’Geoff Johnsrevealed that the firstmovie titlewill simply beJustice League, notJustice League Part 1as previously announced. But we still don’t have a confirmed synopsis or cast list quite yet. Today, however, we get our first look at starJ.K. Simmons, who is playing Commissioner Gordon, in training mode for this movie.
While we don’t know ifJ.K. Simmonshas started shooting his scenes onJustice Leaguequite yet, this photo from fitness professionalAaron Williamson’sInstagramteases that the 61-year-old actor is getting into great shape to play Commissioner Gordon. The actor is also seen sporting a rather long beard as he works out, but we don’t know for sure if he’ll be keeping the beard for production or not. It also isn’t known if Commissioner Gordon will be involved in any of the action scenes inJustice League, but he certainly does look ready to take on anyone that Gotham City has to offer.
Just a few days beforeGeoff Johnsconfirmed the title, four rumored titles surfaced,Justice League: United,Justice League: Angels & Demons,Justice League: Gods Among UsandJustice League: Gods Among Men. It’s possible that the studio may change their mind and eventually use one of these titles, or use one of them forJustice League Part 2, which is set for release on July 13, 2025. We’ll have to wait and see if Warner Bros. makes any sort of official announcement regardingJustice Leaguein the near future.
As forJ.K. Simmons’Commissioner Gordon, the actor revealed in April that he starts filming some time in June, although he has a very small role in the first movie. He added that he hopes to continue playing this iconic character in upwards of four or more movies, but we’re not sure what other movies he may appear in. Warner Bros. recently confirmed thatBen Affleckis making a stand aloneBatmanreboot, so it’s possible that Gordon could surface in that movie.
Justice League Part 1is shooting at Leavesden studios in southeast England, and will utilize on-location shoots in London and Iceland.Zack Snyderis directing from a script byBatman v Superman: Dawn of JusticewriterChris Terrio, with Warner Bros. setting a August 06, 2025 release date. Take a look atAaron Williamson’s Instagram photo showcasingJ.K. Simmons' workout regimen.
