While the casting is not yet a done deal, Clarke is the main actress in talks for the role of the iconic DC magician. Our sources say talks are far along enough that concept art has already been worked on with Clarke as the character. This would make her the first name attached to Bad Robot‘s universe of Justice League Dark films and series coming to HBO Max in the near future.

Clarke has been a fan favorite for a DC role for quite some time, so it seemed inevitable that a DC property would eye her for a project. It is currently unknown if Zatanna will have her own solo standalone film or series on the streaming platform, though she would, of course, appear with a host of JLD characters, such as John Constantine, Deadman, and Etrigan the Demon.

Stay tuned to The Cultured Nerd for more on this news as it develops.

I found this on BOUNDING INTO COMICS –

Zatanna has been the subject of a parallel rumor lately. The character may get her own solo movie which could wind up on either the big screen or HBO Max. There is no word if Clarke is up for that or if the project is separate and has a director yet.

Zatanna Zatara, the daughter of a magician, is descended from a race of mystical beings, the Homo Magi, a bloodline that gives her powers.

An associate and ex-lover of John Constantine, she frequently finds herself in the line-up of the Justice League Dark and sometimes works with the main Justice League. Cultured Nerd notes she may find herself in the company of Constantine, Deadman, and Etrigan on the HBO Max series.

Those names and more appeared in DC Animated features Justice League Dark and JLD: Apokolips War. Zatanna also guest-starred on Batman: The Animated Series, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Justice League Unlimited, and Smallville (played by Serinda Swan).

Emilia Clarke needs practically no introduction. Known best for playing Daenerys Targaryen on Game of Thrones for 62 episodes, she also boasts roles in Terminator Genisys – as a young Sarah Connor from an alternate timeline – and Solo: A Star Wars Story.

Her close friendship with Jason Momoa put her on the DC radar with fans hoping, not to mention petitioning, to see Clarke take over the role of Mera in Aquaman 2.

Justice League Dark doesn’t have a premiere date yet but you tell us what you think of Emilia Clarke as a potential for Zatanna down below.
