Knocked Up star Seth Rogen (pictured) and writing partner Evan Goldberg are in final negotiations to co-write and produce "The Green Hornet" for Sony Pictures.
On the surface, that news doesn't sound so strange to me, (both of these guys could be HUGE fans of the characters...) but then I read that Rogen is also attached to star as the classic crime-fighting hero... And I begin to wonder if the movie will turn into some piece of comedic camp?
There's no doubt that Rogen is a talented guy-and thanks to the success of KU--he's been put on the map. But I think he's wrong for the part here. After all, guys like George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg and Jake Gyllenhaal were all previously linked to the project at one point or another. I'm hopeful for a faithful adaptation and not a romp.
Fingers Firmly Crossed...
