Over on DC's The Source blog, the critically acclaimed Green Lantern writer has described a recent visit to the set of the upcoming movie adaptation and revealed what he think of Mark Strong's performance as the villainous Sinestro! And judging by what he said, it looks like it's going to be pretty damned good...
"I just returned from New Orleans, where Green Lantern is deep in production set for release in June 2011. Green Lantern has an unreal crew and cast. Grant Major – the Production Designer on Lord Of The Rings. Martin Campbell – the director of Casino Royale. And Mark Strong from Sherlock Holmes and Kick-Ass as Sinestro. And while I was there, there was a test on Sinestro. How he looks. How he moves. An amazing test."
"Unfortunately, that test is top secret."
"I can say with confidence, however, if you like Sinestro you’re going to love Mark Strong as Sinestro. Powerful, regal, intimidating. Mark clearly has done his research and embraced every aspect of what makes Sinestro one of the greatest, most complex characters within the vast, epic universe of the Green Lantern Corps. I think you’ll be as psyched as I am when you finally see him."
Green Lantern which stars Ryan Reynolds in the title role is set to hit cinemas on June 17, 2011!
