Actor
Bradley Cooper was recently asked about losing out to
Ryan Reynolds in his
bid to play Hal Jordan/Green Lantern in the live-action movie that is currently in development and Cooper said:
"It was more of an ego hurt than any sort of artistic one." Cooper said that he was told the news while on location in Afghanistan where he was visiting troops as part of a USO tour. Cooper said:
"It's surreal being in a forward-operating base in Afghanistan and having a Marine coming up to you and him going, 'Hey, man. Sorry you didn't get Green Lantern.'"
