Ben Affleck is set to begin talks with Warner Bros. executives to direct the long-awaited Justice League movie.

Will Beall wrote the script for the superhero project, which brings together Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and The Flash in the same way box office blockbuster The Avengers saw the stars of the rival Marvel franchise unite to save the world.


Justice League is expected to reach cinemas by 2015, reports industry paper Daily Variety.
