This next excerpt is from MovieWeb -

“A three-way casting race for the latest superhero movie has finally been decided. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Ryan Reynolds has officially won the role of Green Lantern.

It was reported earlier today that there was a three-way race for the role between Reynolds, Bradley Cooper and Justin Timberlake, but the trade is reporting that Jared Leto was also in contention for the role. Reynolds entered into negotiations for the role earlier today.”

Personally, I would have preferred Bradley Cooper but at least they didn’t give it to Justin Timberlake.

I don’t know what this news means to the prospective Deadpool movie, if it affects it at all, though you have to assume that Reynolds wouldn’t want to be tied to two superhero franchises.

What frightens me is that with Reynolds now confirmed, does that mean we can expect to see a more humorous Green Lantern?

Hopefully not.
