Many thanks to Collider for the following video and transcription.



For you as a performer, you’re putting a lot of faith in animators. Is that a concern for you signing on? Or do you see footage and know?

I saw a bit of footage, but you can’t ever know that stuff going in. That’s something that you have to have a lot of faith in your studio. And I look at Warner Bros. and their track record, Harry Potter and these big tentpole movies — they do such a great job with all of it. They spend the money, which is what it comes down to really. So you have faith in that regard and you just do whatever you can in the capacity that I have. I’m the actor of the movie and I have to bring that to life. That’s all I can focus on.


There’s a lot of Green Lanterns in this. Is there surprise voice cast news about to come?

I think there might be. I’m not really at liberty to say, but I think there might be. I think so. There’s a few yet to be cast. We’ll see a lot of different Lanterns on Oa.


What of the final film have you seen? How far into it?

I’ve only seen chunks and sections, because I don’t like seeing the stuff that’s not polished. It’s harder for me to step away from it and watch that.


Something I’m really looking forward to is R.I.P.D.

Cool. Yeah, me too.


So what’s the status on that?

I don’t know yet. Bringing any movie together is a minor miracle. But it’s definitely moving along. It’s in development. Hopefully soon we’ll shoot it.


With an all star cast which includes Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan, Blake Lively as Carol Ferris and Mark Strong as Sinestro, director Martin Campbell's Green Lantern is set to be released in 3D on June 17, later this year!

Don't hold your breath, DP's rights are tied up with the X-Men rights, so he won't be free until they are. And they'll likely never be free, sadly.
