Ryan Reynolds Talks About “Green Lantern” Movie

Via SocialiteLife:
In a recent interview with MTV News, Ryan Reynolds discussed his highly anticipated film “Green Lantern.” With shooting set to begin within the next year, Reynolds best described the film by saying, “It is [an origin] story to a certain degree, but it’s not a labored origin story, where the movie begins in the third act. The movie starts when it starts. We find out Hal is the guy fairly early on, and the adventure begins.”
Reynolds went on to suggest that viewers will likely “walk away from this first film, and the moments that [they will] remember and the moments that [will mean so much to them], not unlike ‘Iron Man’ [will be] the moments where the guy’s not in the suit.”
With “Green Lantern” being just one of two comic movies in the works for Reynolds, the other is “Deadpool,” it appears that viewers can look forward to a ton of action, and some memorable moments!


for some reason the turn of phrase “Reynolds best described the film” infuriates me. it’s as if the writer heard somebody say “best described” and thought it means “described.”
December 2nd, 2009 at 4:30 pmi doubt that the author was editorializing on ryren’s inability to describe things without babbling meandering. if it’s a dig, it needs to be less subtle, is my point.
