JUSTICE LEAGUE Casts Julian Lewis Jones in Mystery Role

Zack Snyder's Justice League has been filming for a while already, and set visit reports from a couple of weeks ago gave us a ton of new information about the film. Since then, we've learned about a few more casting additions, including Game of Thrones Kristofer Hivju playing an Atlantean king, and now CBM points us to a Wales Online interview with actor Julian Lewis Jones, who's the latest actor to saddle up for Snyder's hopeful blockbuster.

“I’m not allowed to say yet what part I play, but let’s just say I’ve a role in what will likely be the most expensive film ever made. I filmed at Warner Brother’s studio at Leavesden as well as at various locations around the UK and Iceland. Directed by Zack Snyder it stars Ben Affleck, Jeremy Irons and host of A-list actors. I’m just happy to have been involved and I’m looking forward to the movie’s release which will be next year.”

James Cameron might have something to say about that claim about Justice League being the most expensive movie ever made, since I'm pretty sure his Avatar sequels are going to end up topping that particular list.

I'm not too familiar with Jones, who's best known for his appearance on the Sky1 series Stella, but IMDb tells me I've seen him in movies like Invictus, Zero Dark Thirty, The Bank Job, and in the excellent 2007 BBC series Jekyll. There's no legitimate indication of who he's playing in Justice League, though I've seen some speculation that he may be playing the villainous Steppenwolf — that theory seems to be gaining traction for the simple reason that Jones filmed at multiple locations, which seems to imply he has a role that's a bit more than a cameo or a throwaway part. Who do you think he'll be playing in the movie?
