FIRST LOOK: RYAN REYNOLDS AS GREEN LANTERN


Here it is.  The CGI Green Lantern suit.  What do you think? 
Ryan Reynolds stars as Hal Jordan, a cocky test pilot who becomes a ring-wearing intergalactic superhero in this massive sci-fi epic from director Martin Campbell (Casino Royale). Though Reynolds has prior experience in the superhero realm from his role as Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, playing Green Lantern involved some major challenges, like getting hurled through the air on a wire at up to 60 feet per second to create the illusion of flight. “The first time you do it, you’re seriously considering an adult diaper,” Reynolds says. Still, he couldn’t resist the chance to play the beloved DC Comics hero, whose power ring can conjure virtually anything he can dream up. “Will and imagination are his superpowers,” Reynolds says. “We need a circus of Timothy Learys to think of things Hal would invent with his ring.”

  1. I wish it was an actual costume instead of something computer generated.

  2. Me too. I am hopeful it looks better on the big screen and the CGI is much better.

  3. I think it looks too symbiotic. Plus it somehow reminds me of Tron.
