Aquaman - Travis Fimmel
Cyborg - Jason Mitchel

I like it. Here's mine.
Batman - Ben Affleck
Superman - Henry Cavill (don't mind him in the role; Snyder's been failing him)
Wonder Woman - Lynn Collins or Yvonne Strahovski (Gadot hasn't been doing much for me)

Green Lantern/Hal Jordan - Matt Bomer
Aquaman - Jason Momoa or Travis Fimmel (I like your idea of Fimmel; I'm gonna keep it)
Flash/Barry Allen - Armie Hammer
Hawkgirl - Rachel Nichols
Hawkman - Garrett Hedlund
Martian Manhunter - Peter Mensah

A lot of these are just awesome.
Liev Schreiber as Vandal Savage
Steve Buscemi as Toy Man
Ralph Fiennes as Ras Al Ghul
Eva Green as Talia Al Ghul
Adrien Brody as Mr Freeze
Matt Damon as Hush
Charlize Theron as Cheetah.
Those are all my favorites. Very cool.
Micheal Sheen as the riddler would be weird..
Jessica Chastain has to be the only option for Poison Ivy for me though!!
great post! -

Thanks. Regarding the Riddler, I was stuck between Sheen, Leonardo Dicaprio, and David Tennant. I decided to cast Tennant as the Mad Hatter instead. Not sure what to do with DiCaprio but I'd rather if he played a superhero instead of a villain.

Wow!!! Phenomenal list!! Bravo! It all seems very inspired and not the typical fan casting bullshet I've grown so tired of. I'm not sure sure how I feel about Angelina as Circe though. Any alternate picks?! x)

Batman and Superman is owned by
Affleck
and
Cavill
. I have never been this satisfied about those characters on the silver screen.
Wonder Woman is
Gal Gadot
to me. She blew me away in BvS. will she stand the test, only time will tell, but I got a good feeling
As for the rest, I will give the benefit of the doubt to
Jason Momoa
. I am very sceptial about
Ezra Miller
as The Flash, and would likely go perhaps for
Scott Caan
Green Lantern/Hal Jordan -
John Krasinski
Hawkman -
Joel Edgerton
Hawkgirl/Woman -
Noomi rapace
Martian Manhunter -
Peter Mensah

Just to clarify my casting decisions.
Superman- While I like Cavill as Superman, I don't think he is able to bring his full acting chops to the role. Also, the script he's been given doesn't help. I just think Matt Bomer is a better actor.
Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg - Although I'll give the DCEU actors the benefit of the doubt, they look pretty good so far, I don't think Ezra Miller and Jason Momoa look or seem like Barry Allen or Arthur Curry to me. I feel that the actors I chose seem more like their respective characters to me and are a better fit.
Green Lantern - diversity. We'll see how good Diego Luna is in Rogue One.
Hawkgirl/Hawkwoman - Three words: Edge. of. Tomorrow.
Hawkman - he's married to Emily Blunt, so
- While I like Cavill as Superman, I don't think he is able to bring his full acting chops to the role. Also, the script he's been given doesn't help. I just think Matt Bomer is a better actor.

Batman-Affleck is excellent, however I might go with David Boreanaz
Supes-Jensen Ackles, Henry Cavill is great in the part though. Agree with the posters saying go with Matt Bomer too.
Wonder Woman-Lynn Collins or Cote de Pablo.
Flash-Dean Gyer
Green Lantern-Andrew Garfield looks the part, but his acting is annoying. John Krasinski as the OP suggested (albeit, a different character)
Aquaman-Jason Lewis
Cyborg-Alm Ameen
