New Image from THE GREEN LANTERN with Hal Jordan and Hector Hammond
Hey, gang! Warner Bros. has released a new image for their upcoming film adaptation of Green Lantern. The image features Hal Jordan and Hector Hammond uncomfortably standing next to each other. This is obviously before Hammond turns into a freaky-ass big-headed mutant.
I wish I was more excited about this movie, but the more I watch the trailer, the less excited I get. It just doesn't look like it's going to be as good as I initially hoped. What do you think?
Here's the synopsis for the movie:
In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.
Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.
The movie was directed by Martin Campbell, and stars Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Mark Strong, Peter Sarsgaard, Tim Robbins, and Angela Bassett. The film is set to be released in 2D and 3D theaters June 17, 2011.
