Ryan Reynolds Talks About Green Lantern And Deadpool

What's happened with The Flash movie? Haven't heard anything about it for a while...

A couple of months ago it seemed that Ryan Reynolds was linked to every Superhero movie in production. From the Green Lantern to the Flash, Reynolds’ name was attached.

Well, the talk of the Flash has cooled down somewhat but Reynolds is still very much involved in the Green Lantern and Deadpool movies.

Anyway, recently MTV caught up with Ryan Reynolds where he talked about the first time he saw the prototype costumes for the Green Lantern and Deadpool…

“It was a moment when I was like, ‘This is happening, and it’s happening in the right way.’ That’s a pretty cool, definitive moment for me.”

The following excerpt is taken from the interview…

I’ve known about “Green Lantern” my whole life, but I’ve never really followed it before. I fell in love with the character when I met with [director] Martin Campbell. When I sat down with him, I really got what it is that this guy is all about. When you have a guy like Martin Campbell, part of his charm is that he has ba–s of titanium, and the other part is that he’s slightly crazy, and you have to be to take on something with the scope of “Green Lantern.” He’s less of the director and more of a general. He just really knows strategies, he knows the intricacies, and his attention to detail! It’s infectious. I sat down with him, and I could not even believe what he was saying. When I went to the meeting, I was entirely cynical. I thought, “What the hell, I’ll see what they have to say,” and I left the room with a completely different perspective.
