Latest DJ Cotrona News

This weekend, Young Hollywood auditioned for the big-budgeted Warner Bros. superhero flick Justice League of America, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Director George Miller saw 35-40 actors test for the parts of Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Flash, Aquaman, Green Lantern and the Martian Manhunter.

Here’s who reportedly showed up: Adam Brody (Fox’s “The O.C.”), Joseph Cross (”Running With Scissors”), D.J. Cotrona (”Windfall”), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (”Grindhouse”), Michael Angarano (”Sky High”), Teresa Palmer (”Wolf Creek”), Max Thieriot (”Jumper”), rapper Common as well as Friday Night Lights stars Minka Kelly, Adrianne Palicki and Scott Porter.

No costumes were used during the audition process. But who wants to see Adam Brody in tights?????

Windfall indulges viewers’ most extravagant aspirational fantasies about overnight wealth — Champagne, travel, parties, shopping and new cars — but still feeds the human impulse to begrudge and seek solace in others’ misfortunes. It’s a full-service wish fulfillment. — The New York Times

I watched the first two episodes of Windfall back in April but kept forgetting to post about it.  Anyway, Windfall is about a group of friends, neighbors and acquaintances that win a huge lottery jackpot and you watch their lives unfold and change as a result.  For what it’s worth, it’s basically a supernatural-less Lost.  I am totally was all over this show because of the cast that I’m very familiar with — Luke Perry (90210), Sarah Wynter (24), Jason Gedrick (The Last Don, Boomtown), and D.J. Cotrona (Skin). More screencaps in the gallery! Windfall premieres tonight at 9PM ET/PT on NBC.  Check it out!

NBC is sure to make good use of its leading men, showing off former
90210 hunk Luke Perry and newcomer(ish) D.J. Cotrona.
