Bringing the enduringly popular superhero to the big screen for the first time, Green Lantern stars Ryan Reynolds in the title role as Hal Jordan, under the direction of Martin Campbell (Casino Royale).
Green Lantern synopsis: In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers.
But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.
Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity.
With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.
The movie also starring Peter Sarsgaard, Mark Strong, Temuera Morrison, Jenna Craig, Jon Tenney, Tim Robbins, Angela Bassett, Taika Cohen and Jeff Wolfe.
Green Lantern is currently scheduled for release in 3D and 2D on June 17, 2011.

Well either they have miss-quoted the story of the film, or this adaptation is suggesting that no human has ever been chosen as a Green Lantern before?
If that is how the film is going, that is a major departure from the comic books, as it seems to ignore Alan Scott. But if it works… let hope it works.
