Film Trailers: Green Lantern Trailer Hits the Web
There's been a great deal of film news lately for DC Comics fans to chew over. First off Zack Snyder was confirmed as the director of the upcoming Superman reboot and then the title of the third Christopher Nolan Batman was revealed as The Dark Knight Rises.
However, one of the biggest film trailers to hit the web in the last few weeks must surely be the first for DC and Warner Bros' The Green Lantern. For those who don't know the backstory of this popular, but as yet untested superhero, his name has been bestowed upon many an alter ego in years gone by.
Since 1940, the man behind the green mask has been Alan Scott, Guy Gardner, John Stewart and Kyle Rayner, to name just a few. But, for his first silver screen outing, the Lantern will be Hal Jordan - a gifted, yet somewhat hot-headed test pilot, who has been selected by the intergalactic Green Lantern Corps to help protect the Universe from a new and terrifying enemy known as Parallax.
Directed by Martin Campbell - who's previous credits include two Zorro movies and James Bond reboot Casino Royale - the movie is set for a June 2011 release and will star Ryan Reynolds as the title character. As a huge comic book fan who has already starred as Deadpool in 2009's X Men Origins: Wolverine, there is a lot of hope that Reynolds will be able to do justice to the beloved character when he dons the famous green suit and magical ring that give him the necessary unearthly powers to bring balance to the cosmos.
While film reviews are a long way off on this one, there's no real doubt that this is going to be one of the biggest flicks of 2011. The internet is already buzzing about this new trailer and the bloggers are busy dissecting all of the tiniest elements of the footage to see how much they can glean on what to expect. Some have speculated that the jokey nature of Reynolds' Green Lantern is not really in keeping with the more serious spirit of the original comic series, while others have welcomed the lightness of touch the actor is bringing to the performance. One thing is for sure, next year a new DC Comics superhero will arrive on the block and will get his shot at lining up to the likes of Batman and Superman.
