Green Lantern Given The Greenlight?


According to Production Weekly The Green Lantern is now moving forward and will grace movie screens sooner rather then later. I for one hope this is true. I think this can be a "Bond-like" franchise in which the sky is the limit so to speak.

STATUS - Development PRODUCER: Donald De Line - Andrew Haas WRITER: Greg Berlanti - Marc Guggenheim - Michael J Green DC COMICS 1700 Broadway New York, NY 10019 WARNER BROS. PICTURES 4000 Warner Blvd. Burbank, CA 91522-0001

Each sector of space is protected by a Green Lantern, possessing a power ring that uses a powerful green energy to do anything within the limits of the user’s imagination and will power. When the Green Lantern assigned to this sector of space finds himself dying on planet Earth, he tells the ring to find a suitable successor. The chosen replacement, hot-shot test pilot Hal Jordan, finds himself with a new job he never expected.

The question is, will this take it's toll on a Justice League version of Green Lantern, which was originally going to be played by Common?
George Miller doesn't think so, but I guess he "didn't get the memo". Pun intended.

Initially slated to be filmed Down Under, Miller conceded production had been moved offshore, with a plan to resume filming next year.
