Man, I couldn't be more stoked about the Green Lantern movie that's (almost certainly) being filmed this fall. Who will play Hal? What other favorites will be included? Will we see Oa and the Corps? Yeah, this is old news, to be sure, but I think it's worth posting! We'll track the progress of this one closely. Read more about it when you click the link.

Warner Bros. Pictures is scheduled to begin filming The Green Lantern in mid-September in Australia, reports Production Weekly.
To be directed by Martin Campbell, the comic book adaptation is targeted for a December 17, 2010 release.
The "Green Lantern" was created in 1940 by writer Bill Finger and artist Martin Nodell. Hal Jordan introduced in 1959, a second-generation test pilot, is an ordinary man who was given the power ring and battery (lantern) by a dying alien named Abin Sur. When Abin Sur's spaceship crashed on Earth, the alien used his ring to seek out an individual to take his place as Green Lantern: someone who was "utterly honest and born without fear."

Yeah I can't wait to see it either... I just hope they someone good to play Hal... For the first one they should only really have Hal as the only Green Lantern from Earth, and maybe a cameo from the others... Maybe set up for Sinestro to turn bad in the second one...
