Although it's currently in pre-production (slated for 2011 release), I'm already tenting my fingers with anticipation over a "Green Lantern" feature film.

So far, the main role of Hal Jordan has not yet been cast, but after the fan-made trailer below was released, Nathan Fillion's stock went way up with fans. Hugo Weaving ("The Matrix," "LOTR") is also a fan-fave to play Sinestro.

What dost thou think?

Pretty slick collage there! The creator of that piece pulled clips from every good sci-fi flick from the last 10 years and blended them together pretty well.

GL has been one of my top 3 favorite superheroes since I was 5 years old, and I would love to see a well-done film version.

Well, the CG required for the special effects would be no problem. I just hope they cast it well (Fillion/Weaving), and have a decent script.

I wish Geoff Johns was writing it; he's the current scribe on GL (the comic), and doing a very good job with the "Blackest Night" story arc.

Several sources (including Superhero Hype) are reporting that Ryan Reynolds (Waiting, Smokin' Aces, Amityville Horror) has been cast as Hal Jordan in this film.

Excuse me while I yak...

Nathan Fillion is a good choice. I really like his sci-fi series and his TV series, Castle is great.

He would make an awesome choice.

Ryan Reynolds? seriously? I mean he was the comic relief in Blade, but Green Lantern? no!!!!!!! LOL

Ryan Reynolds is a good actor I think, but has been typecast as a comedian. I was hoping they were going to go with Bradley Cooper from The Hangover, but I guess not.

Cooper auditioned for the part as Jordan, but unfortunately didn't make it.

Make no mistake - I think Nathan Fillion would have been perfect in the role, but given a choice between Cooper and Reynolds I'd take the former hands-down.
