“Oh, man, was I nervous about it,” Mr. Reynolds said during an interview last week at the Sunset Tower Hotel here, adding that the gray motion-capture suit he wore for much of the shoot was not exactly calming. “You want me to do what? And I’m supposed to do it in crash-test jammies? At a certain point you have to have blind faith in the people you are working with and the talents they possess. Establishing the world is the hardest, and if you get that right, and I think they did, you can really have some fun with a second and third movie,”
“We’re trying very hard to deliver,” said Jeff Robinov, Warner’s top movie executive. “Yes, there is a lot at stake. But I try and frame these things in terms of my own expectations. If you look at ‘Batman Begins,’ it did about $370 million worldwide and got us to a sequel.”
“It’s not a comic book movie as much as an epic adventure with huge scope and scale, a space opera in the vein of ‘Star Wars’ with an Earthbound ‘Top Gun’ vibe,” said Greg Berlanti, a producer of the movie and one of four credited writers.
When asked about Reynolds qualifications for the role:
“Let’s just put it this way,” said Donald De Line, a “Green Lantern” producer, “we knew immediately that we put the ring on the right finger.”
“I’m really, really happy with how the film turned out,” said Mr. Johns, who became chief creative officer for DC Entertainment in 2010. “The characters, the personality, the lore — it’s all spot-on.”
“We went out a little too early,” said Sue Kroll, Warner’s highly regarded movie marketing president. “For me it was a very important lesson. We had a great opportunity with ‘Harry Potter,’ but we didn’t have enough of the movie finished.” She added, “Once we did have some great moments to show, the feedback was unbelievable. I think people are now engaged and primed.”
