"I think it's very wise advice: never congratulate yourself too much, and never berate yourself too much. This is very sage advice," the actor told
MTV News in a recent interview.

As we all know, the outcome for

"I have no idea," he said when talk turned to the chances of him once again playing Hal Jordan on the big screen.
"I do not cut those kinds of checks," he said. "I couldn't have answered that any more clearly before the movie came out either."
