Comicbookmovie has gotten their hands on a photo that appears to be from the Madisonville, Louisiana set of Martin Campbell’s Green Lantern and appears to be the spaceship of Abin Sur, the Green Lantern who gives Hal Jordan (played by Ryan Reynolds) his power ring.

Fox Officially Announces Fantastic Four Reboot
20th Century Fox has confirmed that it will reboot its Fantastic Four franchise. Rumors of a potential reboot first hit back in March.
Akiva Goldsman (I Am Legend, Hancock, Jonah Hex) has been hired to produce and Michael Green, the executive producer of TV’s “Heroes” and writer of “Green Lantern,” will pen the script for the new “Fantastic Four.”
The 2005 “Fantastic Four” and 2007 sequel “Rise of the Silver Surfer” were directed by Tim Story and starred Jessica Alba, Chris Evans, Michael Chiklis and Ioan Gruffudd. Since the deals for the reboot are just getting made, it is unclear if any of them will return and Fox was unwilling to comment on the development.

The Green Lantern concept art is just too good to pass up. Illustrator Brian Murray posted a number of images that he created for Green Lantern screenwriter and (potential) director Greg Berlanti on his official website. The images were part of the presentation package Murray created for Berlanti, some of which were used to get Berlanti the directing gig to begin with. Though casting rumors for the JLA version of the Green Lantern indicated that the character would be reimagined as African-American, these illustrations show a square-jawed white man– pretty much your typical image of a superhero.
