Green Lantern movie news

*Raph's Girl* · 06-04-2008, 11:35 AM

The producer of the film? Donald Del Ray

What's it about? Apperantly Hal Jordan's origin....oh...goody...

Quote:

They're waiting for a first draft right now from writer Greg Berlanti, and it sounds like De Line is hoping to have that soon. And in case you had any doubt Justice League was dead, De Line said that Green Lantern's development has been totally unaffected by that project - they haven't seen a script or talked to anyone about fitting in with that film.

Not even the good Lantern....Where's Rayner?

*Spitfire* · 06-04-2008, 02:30 PM

Guy whose writing it lacks any creditability. He's only done TV shows. I don't watch "Dawson's Creek" so I can't see how good he is. However writing for TV and writing for film are two totally different things and usually when people make this jump you just get one massive suck-fest.

Things are lookin up: http://movies.ign.com/articles/898/898839p1.html

I hope Guy's role is minimal. I like him alot, but 2 Lanterns for the first movie seems like a dumb idea.

*Raph's Girl* · 07-10-2009, 01:35 PM

Well casting is about to begin on this film soon (it'll be out June 2011). WB has narrowed down who'll be playing Hal Jordan to 3 people:

Ryan Reynolds
Bradley Cooper (who? )
Justin Timberlake (oh gods no! )

Now IMO Ryan Reynolds would be perfect for the role!

The other characters in the movie are:
Martin Jordan
Carl Ferris
Carol Ferris
Thomas Kalmaku
Tomar-Re
Abin Sur
Sinestro
Kilowog
the Guardians
Legion
Hector Hammond

Guy Gardner and Clark Kent will have cameos as possable ring bearers...before Abin Sur's ring chooses Hal.

I wonder if Thomas Kalmaku will be called Pie Face?

I think Ryan Reynolds would be better for Flash.

*Slap-Happy* · 07-10-2009, 01:53 PM

I want Ryan Reynolds to focus his time on the Deadpool movie. So I suggest Cooper for the role. I don't think Timberlake has what it takes to be Hal Jordan.

*The Stryker* · 07-10-2009, 02:23 PM

Is Reynolds directing and writing Deadpool? All he would need to do is have time in his schedule.

Yeah, perfect. I don't think he fits GL at all.

*Brodie* · 07-10-2009, 06:05 PM

If he was going to be a GL, he'd make a better Kyle Rayner...You know, someone with a sense of humor.

*Raph's Girl* · 07-10-2009, 09:14 PM

Wow.. that was quick. According to variety Ryan Reynolds has been picked!!!

Dammit. This f**cks everything up for Deadpool

*The Stryker* · 07-11-2009, 01:20 AM

How? Actors are allowed to do more than one movie.

*Spitfire* · 07-11-2009, 01:26 AM

I would have preferred Bradley Cooper he looks more like a GL to me. I also loved him in "The Hangover". I liked Ryan in his comedy roles but I still have a bad taste in my mouth for him after Blade 3. Though in retrospect it wasn't really him who killed that movie he was probably the only good part of it.

No it doesn't. He can easily do both films. They're not out till 2011.

By "f**ks up everything, I mean I'll have to wait

*gobo* · 07-11-2009, 11:25 AM

You didn't have to wait before? I'm confused...

*Slap-Happy* · 07-11-2009, 11:31 PM

Well, the more I think about it, he could do both films. Deadpool seems like a role he just has to do voice work for, and he could just filma cameo asunmasked Deadpool. Just hire a stuntman with a similar physique as Deadpool.

You're thinking too hard about this. It's really not a problem for him to do two movies without compromise.

**Jester** · 07-12-2009, 12:07 AM

Look at Kevin Bacon...or Jude Law.
