Hal Jordan's Origin
Green Lantern was a fighter test pilot for the Air Force. That all changed when on one day, he was mysteriously transported to a crashed spaceship. There he met Abin Sur, a Green Lantern. Abin Sur was dying and offered Hal the opportunity to succeed him. Hal Jordan accepted.

With the ring in his possession, Hal Jordan became the greatest member of the Green Lantern Corps. He became a founding member of the Justice League and has helped save the world countless times to this day!

Clark Kent's Origin
Superman is the last of a dying race from the planet Krypton. His Krypton
name is Kal-El. His father, Jor-El was a great scientist and saw the warning signs that their planet was doomed to destruction. A council heard his discoveries, but dismissed them and forbid Jor-El to speak of this to anyone. Realizing that his family was in danger, Jor-El started to construct a rocket that would take him, his son and wife Lara away from Krypton, but it was too late.
Jor-El had only constructed a small model of the rocket, when disaster struck, Lara decided to stay behind with Jor-El to give their baby a better chance of survival. Lara and Jor-El but their baby into the rocket and directed it to Earth, where it landed and was discovered by John and Martha Kent, near the town of Smallville.
As young Kal-El, called Clark by his Earth parents, grew up, he discovered his amazing powers of speed, strength, and invulnerability and eventually flight. It would be in Smallville with the Kents that Clark learned many of his life lessons and became the honest and good man that many know him to be today. After he graduated, he went to the Metropolis University and majored in Journalism, eventually getting a job with The Daily Planet as a reporter.

By the looks of it in the Green Lantern movie it'll be an easter egg appearance, but it'll still be so cool! It would seem WARNER BROS is moving in the right direction and slowly connecting all their characters in the movies. Something they can more so do than Marvel at the moment! Anyway good move DC if it happens!

Brandon Routh & Sam Worthington anyone? ; )

Now Brandon Routh just because he is Superman and a lot of people want to see him on the big screen again and why not, he was born to play Superman and i thought he done a very good job in Superman Returns an if the movie has some faults it certainly wasn't him. If you look around the web a lot of people are still gunning for him to play the one and only man of steel!



How about a DOOMSDAY movie, like i and many have said maybe even a trilogy and we can still have a cameo of Lex if needed, but mainly Superman will be up against the fight of his life, an all out EPIC in the making! Darkseid pulling the strings?

Sam Worthington, done a very good job in Terminator and will probably blow us away in Avatar and Clash of the Titans, but a few rumors are surfacing about him playing the man of steel? Why, i do not know, if WARNER BROS had any sense surly he would be better playing Hal Jordan (Green Lantern). He seems too perfect to miscast him as Clark Kent, he seems so perfect for Green Lantern, does he even look like Superman? I personally think not.



Well what do you guys think here at CBM? Would you prefer him as the Ring Bearer or red boots and a cape? What are your thoughts and views on the subject, let us know?

You know why Worthington doesn't say shit about Green Lantern??? Cause he's gonna sign a several movie contract with WB. HE's going to be Superman in GL and any DC upcoming movie!!! Not my personal pic but, check out for that!!!
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 7/8/2009, 12:28 PM
Yeah SHAMAN sure, like tACKLES is gonna be CAP too! ; D

Seriously though, WORTHINGTON wont work as SUPES!!!
Shaman
Shaman - 7/8/2009, 12:29 PM
Tell that to WB... and hurry up before he signs that contract!!!

LEEE777 - 7/8/2009, 12:31 PM
Okay will do! ; )

Wheres the main WARNERS LA right?? ; D

Damn, it better not be true coz not just here but all over the NET ppl will be pi$$ed if ROUTH don't get another chance, he's perfect! It wasn't his fault that ppl disliked SUPERMAN RETURNS!

To find WB in LA, just follow the big water tower.

And Routh will not be cast since WB will reboot the whole thing. They'll reboot the franchise to fit JLA WITH Sam Worthington. So yeah, people will be pissed!!! It's also the reason why Nolan isn't saying shit. Cause WB told him to shut up about it. He's not doing a third film and neither is Bale. They're restarting all franchises for JLA. So the first JLAer will be Hal. Which could very well be Chris Pine. They'll wait on the success of GL to find out what they do with the other franchises. Cause if an Intergalactic Police Corps succeeds, JLA (as well as the first ever decent Superman movie)is a shoe-in!!!

LOL, it just hit me like a ton of bricks... i dunno. It just "feels" like that's what they're gonna do. If they do go that way, don't forget where you heard it first huh? :P
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 7/8/2009, 2:11 PM
Don't forget you heard DOOMSDAY and TRILOGY in the same article! ; )

ROUTH will be Superman!

LEEE777 - 7/8/2009, 2:30 PM
Anil @ Dude, its probably like a 30 second Clark Kent appearance! Which i think is cool, an ppl we'll understand that its all the same Universe! Like MARVEL is doing. ; )

ComingSoon.net talked to Terminator Salvation and Avatar star Sam Worthington about possibly starring in the Martin Campbell-directed Green Lantern.

"I've been talking to (director) Martin Campbell about it," Worthington said when asked if he had been approached about the role. "It's one of those things where they're still doing the script. I said, 'Give me a script. Let me have a look at it.' I like Martin a lot. I met him on the Bond stuff, and I like his work, but the second step is, 'Is it a movie that I'd go and see?'"

Warner Bros. Pictures is eyeing a June 17, 2011 release for the comic book adaptation. ; )

Shaman I dont think that sam worthington is going to play superman. Thats a stupid theory

Yall know I want Worthington as GL! But I have since rethought and I think he might be cappy. Him as the man of steel is laughable in my eyes... and face. I think he has the correct "look" for the wwII cappy.
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 7/9/2009, 9:36 AM
BETTY @ Tut tut! I can see your point though, an id deff rate him over to be CAP than tACKLES any day! Serious thought. I do think he could do a good CAP though i really think he'd make an excellent HAL!
Shaman
Shaman - 7/9/2009, 10:34 AM
It sounds ridiculous in all our ears inclunding mine but you never know with these execs. Plus just re-read what LEEE posted and tell me honestly that he doesn't sound like an evasive [frick]er!!! He's trying to misdirect the interviewer. He's obviously been talked to for way more than "the possibility" that he'd be GL. With the new judgement out, WB will push a Superman film and Worthington is as worthy as anybody else for the role. He's not my pic, but he's an obvious cash cow right this moment.
divo
divo - 7/9/2009, 12:30 PM
Superman needs to have black hair PERIOD. Worthing might play lantern. That sounds alot more realistic
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 7/9/2009, 2:13 PM
OMG this is in 'MAIN' cool! ; D

SHAMAN @ I really cant see why they would put SAM in the SUPERMAN role, no one see's it! SAM WORTHINGTON is HOT right now, if WARNER'S was going to put him in any superhero movie, it'll probably GREEN LANTERN! And also they still do not have a lead! It just makes more sense.

Sam for Hal!!!
any news from clash of the titans? I need a Worthington fix!

Daniellantern
Daniellantern - 7/9/2009, 8:44 PM
wow!!!

routh for superman!!!
i think sam worth is too young for this role..
maybe he can play as kyle rayner..
@lee.. my first choice for hal is eric bana.. he look awesome in troy movie..
jason lewis look alike hal too..
nathan fillion was great choice i agree with this one!!!
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 7/10/2009, 4:02 AM
Anil @ I cant see REYNOLDS for FLASH, i did but not now he's gonna be another RED superhero! And i saw him as the WALLY FLASH not BARRY!

Daniel @ ERIC dunno, he's already been a green superhero lol! Id like him as LOBO, he hot da chops! ; )

Im glad you guys want ROUTH to stay as SUPERMAN though!

I dont dislike Fillion though, but i want WORTHINGTON! ; D
