GREEN LANTERN CORPS' Lead Characters Have Been Officially Revealed
Some new details about Geoff Johns' plans for Green Lantern Corps have been revealed and an official studio release confirms which members of the interplanetary lawmen will receive the spotlight here...
There's been a lot of speculation about which members of the Green Lantern Corps the upcoming movie will focus on but now that Geoff Johns has signed on to write and produce the DC Comics adaptation, Warner Bros.'s plans for the franchise have become clear. On the official website for the newly launched Mad Ghost Productions banner, a brief synopsis confirms the movie's two leads.
"[One] of DC Comics’ greatest Super Hero universes, the film will feature Hal Jordan and John Stewart…" it teases, confirming past reports that Green Lantern Corps will revolve around the two heroes and not newer characters like Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz as has been rumoured lately. This is a solid choice by the Johns and the studio and one fans are likely to respond to extremely positively.
It's also worth noting that The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that the movie will be based on Johns' lengthy Green Lantern run. With that in mind, we can probably expect to see a number of other Corps introduced as well as a possible adaptation of the Sinestro Corps War. We'll just have to wait and see but things are finally looking up for this adaptation and we'll hopefully get a release date soon.
