Ryan Reynolds’ Green Lantern Suit Will Be Almost Entirely Computer-Generated
Posted by: | Comments
Breaking news from Peter Sciretta of Slashfilm that is probably giving a lot of comic-book fans a heart attack as an initial reaction. Peter is reporting, from a “trusted source” at Warner Bros., that Ryan Reynolds will not be wearing any kind of suit for the upcoming Green Lantern movie, because the suit will be almost entirely CG. Oh, and the featured picture above is fan-made, so that’s not what it will look like.

We reported way back in July that Ryan Reynolds had beat out Bradley Cooper and Justin Timberlake (seriously) for the role of Hal Jordan in Martin Campbell’s big screen adaptation of Green Lantern. While I am a big fan of Ryan Reynolds and think he is a very talented actor with has a promising career ahead of him, I was not a supporter of his casting for two reasons: 1) Reynold’s previous credits and acting style thus far does not at all fit the personality of Hal Jordan and 2) He’s already headlining another superhero franchise as Deadpool in Marvel’s spin-off of Reynold’s character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

Way back in July I posted some news in a Quick Tidbit article on Ryan Reynold’s upcoming indie-thriller, Buried. The story is about a U.S. contractor working in Iraq who awakes to find he is buried alive inside a coffin. With only a lighter and a cell phone, it’s a race against time to escape this claustrophobic death trap. Reynolds of course stars in this one-man show, which is shot completely inside the coffin. The premise certainly raises eye brows because it could either turn out to be brilliant or utterly stupid. Either way, it’s a very intriguing concept.

The Movie Mash has been discussing the ongoing Green Lantern actor search for a while now. After the Earth-shattering success of The Dark Knight, Warner Bros. decided to make a long-term commitment in developing the hundreds of superhero characters at their disposal into potentially successful movie franchises. The next hopeful money-maker for WB is the first mega-adaptation of the hugely popular Green Lantern comic series, which has been around for over half a century. Warner picked Bond director Martin Campbell (Golden Eye, Casino Royale) to bring GL to life in his first big Sci-Fi action spectacle.

● I keeeed, I keeeed. But Really? Not only is an Indiana Jones 5 in the works with Spielberg and Shia LaBeouf to return, but guess who else?….Carrot Top! No, I’m JK. But Harrison Ford IS set to come back to play Indy once more, as he turns 67 years-old next week. This information is via The Insider, not necessarily the New York Times in terms of credibility, but it should be somewhat legit, since we definitely know there’s going to be an Indy 5. As much as I love Indy and the combo of Spielberg, Lucas and Ford, but as Paul McCartney said, “Let it Be…”
