Just the other day we mentioned that highly underrated actor (and future mega star) Bradley Cooper was on the short list for playing the lead role in Green Lantern. The release date for the movie was set for December 2010… but it appears the studio has had a change of heart and has bumped the date back 6 full months (giving it a June 2011 release).
Now, whenever we hear about films getting bumped back, we usually think negative things… but in this case my reaction is the opposite. I think the studio is showing a lot of confidence in the film by slapping it into the major summer blockbuster season (I was actually wondering earlier why they didn’t put it there in the first place).
So yes, sad for us that we’ll have to wait 6 more months for Green Lantern… but potentially very good for us at the same time. (source: BoxOfficeMojo)
