David Allen
A new comic book hero is about to emerge, “The Green Lantern” is a super hero armed only with a ring that provides his super hero powers.
The lead role was a highly contested part, with the likes of Justin Timberlake and Bradley Cooper taking screen tests, but it was Ryan Reynolds who was last seen as “Deadpool” in the recent X Men Origins: Wolverine, who takes the lead role.
This is an interesting decision, as he will become the first actor to have appeared as a hero for both Marvel and DC the rival comic book and film producers.
The film will be directed by Martin Campbell who was last in action on the 007 film “Casino Royale” there is little news as to when this film is due to be finished.
