[edit] Development
Green Lantern is a movie that is in production that will star Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan. It is set to start preproduction in July 2009, start filming in November and due to be released on June 17, 2011.
It will feature Abin Sur crashing on Earth and Jordan taking up the mantle of Green Lantern.
Director Greg Berlanti was signed on in 2007 to co-write and direct a Green Lantern feature film, featuring Hal Jordan as the main character. The other writers working on the screenplay include Michael Green (who had done work on Heroes for television and Superman/Batman for comics) and Marc Guggenheim (known for his comic work on The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive and Wolverine). The film is currently scheduled for release in 2010, but the film has been in initial development for over a year. It was recently reported from a small script review the story details of the movie. It appears that the Emerald Dawn story serves as a major influence of the film's plot, with Hal Jordan receiving the ring and going to Oa to be taught by Sinestro. He would fight Legion as the main villain as the threat to deep space and the galaxy resulting in a massive space battle and Hector Hammond would be the threat to Earth. It is unknown whether Sinestro would appear as a villian in the movie or if he would be saved for another film. There will be an appearance from both Guy Gardner and a small cameo made by Clark Kent. Other characters appearing are Martin Jordan, Carl Ferris, Carol Ferris, Thomas Kalmaku, Tomar-Re, Kilowog, and, of course, the Guardians of the Universe. (Go to [iesb.net] for story details.) David Boreanaz has expressed interest in playing Hal Jordan.
At one time, the top choices for the role of Hal Jordan were Ryan Gosling and Chris Pine, however the role ultimately went to Ryan Reynolds.
It will shoot in Sydney at Fox Studios Australia. Recent reports say that it will have a $150 million budget.
