Green Lantern Casting Additions

Green Lantern Casting Additions

Hal Jordan's younger brother and nephew join the fray in Martin Campbell's superhero film adaptation, Green Lantern

Filming on Green Lantern is almost wrapped, with a little less than two weeks left for principal photography. Though these casting additions have only now been revealed, it's more than likely the actors have already filmed their respective scenes.




Nick Jandl - Jim Jordan

The youngest Jordan brother, Jim is always supportive of his older brother Jack's political career. Initially reporter Sue Williams believed that Jim was really the Green Lantern and so sought to get Jim to expose his "secret". Whenever Jim tried to disprove her accusations, some involvement of the Green Lantern would cause Sue to doubt him, unknown to both that Green Lantern was secretly Jim's older brother Hal.




Dylan James - Jason Jordan

Second son of Jim Jordan, and nephew to Hal Jordan, Jason is a very outgoing and adventurous child; which drastically opposes his father's views. His knowledge and support of his uncle as a Green Lantern is a pivotal force that convinces his parents to move back to Coast City after it's destruction.

Me as well @LEEE777! Though some other Human GL corps members will probably be in the sequel. I hope it doesn't come out over saturated.

I kind of hope that they wait for sequels before introducing the other human GLs. We're getting so much alien GL goodness that I don't want to it get bogged down and lose focus on Hal Jordan.

So... Mike Doyle, Nick Jandl and Ryan Reynolds are all brothers with John Tenney leading the Jordan clan as the father. Growing up in that household must've been awful. You can't walk anywhere without stepping on or tripping over a piece of ass. That family would have gotten more pussy than kitten rescue.
"JACK!! You left your pussy in the middle of the living room again!", "DAD!!! Hal took my piece of ass without asking!!", "No Jim! You can't keep that pussy! You already have three of them in the basement and you don't even take care of those! No buts! Put her back outside!"

Not believable!! No gene pool is that good. Boycott!! lol

Hey InterestingJohn, I got my Kirby Krackle newsletter today. It seems that, if they have enough support, they could possibly get their "Ring Capacity" song on the soundtrack. The link to facebook is:

I'm telling you, anyone who is a GL fan and has heard this song should sign up. I heard it once and bought both of their cds.

IJ, can you post the video again? Kirby NEEDS our support. Thanks!

IJ - Sorry for asking twice. Seems our "streams" got crossed. (Ghostbuster ref)

Cool if you're a gl fan but a little cheesy for a major motion picture blockbuster. Just my opinion.

Quick question, though. As I was "rocking out", I got to thinking. Playing "Devil's Advocate", it clearly spells out that Sinestro is "the one that made me bleed. A purple man obsessed with me". Since Sinestro is not a villian in this movie, does it make sense in the closing credits? It would IF Sinestro is revealed in the latter part of the movie.

IJ thanks for the post and the lyrics.

LMFAO! @teabag That's all I'm going to think now when I listen to that song!

InstigatorGIRL - 8/4/2010, 2:22 PM
@Nytwng & IJ Yeah I got that newsletter too and was so excited. I went right to Facebook and clicked liked. I hope its on there. Ring Capacity is one of my favs by them. Ring Capacity and Teabagged and Roll Over.
InstigatorGIRL
InstigatorGIRL - 8/4/2010, 2:29 PM
HA! @IJ That's awesome. I never thought of them with those songs but yeah I know what your saying. Ring Capacity is such a great song. I always sing it out loud in my car. Its also my ringtone.
InstigatorGIRL
InstigatorGIRL - 8/4/2010, 2:50 PM
@IJ Aw sorry homefry. What kind of phone do you have and what did you use to turn it to a ringtone? Yeah I edited to where its the part with the Oath. So now when someone calls I hear the Oath ring out. The guys at the comic shop I go to love it!

Dude, I hope those guys have day jobs. I appreciate their enthusiasm for GL and comics in general (great band name, btw) and no offense to their fans, but that song is corny as f*ck. I really hope that shit never makes it anywhere near the GL soundtrack.

Am I mistaken or is Jim's son named Howard?And doesn't he have a daughter as well?
Nytwng77043
Nytwng77043 - 8/4/2010, 4:01 PM
IJ, without getting into another "sick joke" with Teabag, I think your getting in "too deep" with the lyrics. Although I agree, to a "casual fan" it would mean Sinestro. And it lends to the "First Flight" movie.

And, IJ, I miss where the ring would give Hal updates on the power status. Is it just me, or have I missed the lantern baloon that provided the power level? Was there a newer version of the ring that didn't have a level warning?

IG, love the new "sweater-pie" pic. Always enjoy your posts.
