Right on the heels of mentioning the release date of Green Lantern, and commenting that there hasn’t been a casting rumour yet for Hal Jordan, we get news that the shortlist is being lead by Chris Pine.
IESB has gotten word out of the Warner Brother’s halls that there is a short list of possibles for the casting of the green superhero Hal Jordan. Top of the list is Chris Pine who is currently set to star as Captain Kirk this summer in J.J. Abrams’ new Star Trek film.
This would be a great move for Pine’s career after getting the job in the iconic role of James T Kirk.
Pine fits the bill for what the WB was looking for. They wanted a late 20s early 30s and Pine does have that fearless maverick presenece.
I could see this. I would still prefer they shot for mid 30s, but I could live with the late 20s. As long as they don’t make a teen thing.
So far so good.
