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!

I like this fan art, but I’m hoping Ryan’s suit will be even more revealing…

The big comic-book-movie news du jour is that Ryan Reynolds (and not Bradley Cooper, as I had previously posted) has been cast as Hal Jordan in the upcoming Green Lantern movie. I’m not sure how I feel about that. Ryan is usually so silly, even when playing a badass role like in Blade 3. However, he did pull of psycho crazy in The Amityville Horror. I never saw Wolverine (gasp, I know, how dare I call myself a fanboy?) so I can’t speak to how good he was in that movie. I’m at least glad that they picked someone with a rockin’ body to play my favorite green super hero.

I’d like to believe that this fine specimen of Canadian bacon showed off the bulge below on the red carpet. Somehow, though, it just screams FACON (fake bacon). Totally looks Photoshopped. What do you think?

Now, that would be a hot duo to watch on screen!

So they enlisted the hobbit (Dominic Monaghan) to play Beak/Blackwing. And a whole host of other cast/characters. Maybe this movie won’t suck as much as I thought it would:

From JustJared:

Monaghan, 31, be joining Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Liev Schreiber (Sabretooth), Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool), Taylor Kitsch (Gambit), Will.i.am (Kestrel), Danny Huston (William Stryker), and Lynn Collins (Silver Fox).
