its about time that WB and DC would get their act together and actually get some movement on their film properties. Marc Guggenheim now talks about the Green Lantern movies (planned as a trilogy) and says he has turned in a treatment for The Flash.
MoviesOnline quotes Guggenheim:
“We’ve turned in the treatment for Flash,” Guggenheim said of the movie, which will be based on the DC Comics speedster. “And we’re talking about Green Lantern 2.”
“When Greg Berlanti originally pitched the movie to Warner Bros., he pitched three movies. So there’s always been, and he’s said this publicly, that there’s always been enough story for a trilogy,” Guggenheim said. “The scope of the character and the character’s world requires that. But we’re really just focusing on the treatment for Green Lantern 2.”
“And I know that everyone involved in the production of the movie is just focusing on completing the first film,” he added.
Little more than the treatment exists for the Flash so we are not going to learn that much about it just yet. Not even a suggestion of a star, but I hope they get Neil Patrick Harris. Just sayin.
But as for Green Lantern, WB is eager to pre-occupy Reynolds for the forseeable future, this isn’t stopping him from making other movies. Sounds like any Marvel related films – specifically Deadpool seem to be counterproductive to their brand, and in their interests to interfere with.
It is encouraging to see that they have a plan instead of scampering to sequel something they planned as a complete story.
