Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!
Here's a look at the latest batch of four new character posters for Warner Brothers upcoming
Green Lantern film, which is expected to add even more 3D
superhero action that fans expect next summer. On the slate we have Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan / Green Lantern,
Blake Lively as Hal's love interest Carol Ferris, Mark Strong as Hal's mentor
and soon to be villain Sinestro, and a nearly unrecognizable Peter Sarsgaard as
scientist Hector Hammond who becomes exposed to a meteor which causes his
intellect and head to grow throughout the film.
As a special treat, the posters each 'lock' together to form the mystical
symbol of the Green Lantern corps. It's a nice touch, and I'm really excited to see how
director Martin Campbell (Casino Royale, Edge of Darkness) handles the Green
Lantern universe. With so many superhero movies all vying for our
attention these days it'll take a lot for a relatively non-established hero (at
least as far as movies go) to grab our attention, and despite the age relative
popularity of this character with comic fans, let's hope they pull it off.
Enjoy the posters and look out for some power ring action when Green
Lantern leaps into theaters on
June 17th!
