The Green Lantern Has been Cast

Variety reported this last Friday that Ryan Reynolds has been cast as Hal Jordan in the live action Green Lantern movie based on the DC Comics of the same name. Martin Campbell is set to direct the picture and even though the budget is not yet set production should begin sometime in January.

Ryan beat out Justin Timberlake and Bradly Cooper for the role. And with such success from film like The Proposal and X-Men Origins: Wolverine. In Wolverine, also a comic based movie Reynolds played wise-cracking Deadpool who is set to play in his own spin-off film. Lets hope that when Reynolds takes that green costum and ring, he doesn't let us comic fans down.
