Mark Strong On Possibly Reprising His GREEN LANTERN Role Of 'Sinestro'

Mark Strong's take on Sinestro is generally considered to be one of the few high points of the Green Lantern movie, but with a rebooted DC Cinematic Universe in the early stages, is their any chance he'd return? Find out what the Kingsman: The Secret Service actor had to say to MTV...

It's pretty much unheard of (unless you count Dame Judi Dench's M returning for the Daniel Craig era Bond flicks) for an actor to reprise a role once the movie they originally appeared in has been rebooted, but that doesn't stop fans wishing it would happen from time to time. Sure it'd mean continuity/canon issues - but who wouldn't like to see J.K. Simmons back as J.J. Jameson in Marvel's new Spider-Man movie for example? The same could be said for Mark Strong's Sinestro, who was praised as one of the only positive aspects of Warner Bros.' first Green Lantern attempt.

In an interview with MTV, Strong says he was proud of what he achieved with the performance, but doesn't think there's be a place for him in the DCCU as that character.




He's right of course... but if they do decide to revisit Sinestro for the new solo Green Lantern movie, they'll have a hard time finding a better fit for the role. What do you guys think?
