i think he should forget about the green lantern and go for Captain America.

He’s tall and looks like he can bulk up. he also has a defining jawline thaty would fit the mask.

i’m just putting it out there. Gosling for Cap

No offense to fans of John Stewart aka the Green Lantern who is black, but he is not that popular as a Green Lantern character. His own comic series was canceled after I think 18 issues, it just didn’t sell, at all. Hal Jordon has the biggest fanbase of all the Green Lanterns and to be honest, you make a movie of any other character and the fans will go berserk. Would I go see a Green Lantern movie if the character was based on Jon Stewart? Sure I would, but I can honestly say thinking about it just depresses me. Hal Jordon has such a compelling Origin story how can you even think of another Lantern?

I don’t know if he’ll be Hal Jordan or Guy Gardner, or any member of the GL corps.. but I do know he’s a very good, talented actor. If he signs for the part, I see it as more of a plus than a minus. My personal hope is that the script has a Hal Jordan arc to it and/or have a focus on the GL corps. But that hope is for the script, not for any actor…

@Rize:

Common, the talented rapper (but not entirely an actor yet) was indeed cast as Green Lantern…in the DOA trainwreck better known as JLA Mortal.

I thought Common was already confirmed to be the Green Lantern? He’s spoken about being offered the position and taking it iirc

It would be good, he is a GREAT actor. I also like the black version of green lantern better from the justice league cartoons though.

He already has Guy Gardner’s hair cut.
