In an interview with IGN about his comic book work, Johns was asked about his new role as Chief Creative Officer at DC and went on to talk a little more about his interest in bringing characters like Green Lantern and Blue Beetle to life on the big and small screen. Most interesting perhaps was the fact he also singled out Wonder Woman while talking about the above two projects which are being filmed and in development respectively. Could this simply be his interest in seeing a WW movie showing or a slip of the tongue that indicates one is already in the works? Have a read below and be sure to have your say in the usual place!
"Beyond writing my books, my job is to get these characters exposed to as many people as possible in the best way possible. My goal starts with working on the Green Lantern film and all the theatrical animated projects we have coming up."
"It's really exciting and fun to do this. Whether we're talking about characters like Green Lantern, Blue Beetle or Wonder Woman, I want to see all of them out there on a bigger stage. I want my brother's kids to love the DC Universe as much as we do. Same goes for the general public. The more Green Lantern and Wonder Woman and Blue Beetle projects we see beyond the comics, the happier I'll be."
"My main focus, however, has been big picture stuff, like the Green Lantern movie. I just got back from New Orleans, where we're shooting. And I saw Sinestro. In person. Fans will be happy."
