So, apparently Ben Affleck is pretty high up on WB's list to direct this.

Since he likes being in front of the camera when he directs, there's apparently a chance that he'd be a member of the Justice League as well.
I dunno if it's just the reporter missing out names, but the article also only mentions five heroes as being "expected" to be part of it. The Justice League is usually founded by seven people, with Martian Manhunter and (usually) Aquaman missing from the list. I hope that WB doesn't wuss out and axe Aquaman from the team: his environment-specific powers distract from the fact that Batman has no powers at all, and there's enough potential (in the comics at least) for a really badass post-Nolan take on the character.
