All Abuzz About Hornet

The Green Hornet movie is back on track with Michel Gondry in the big chair says Variety.

Seth Rogen is Hornet, and Stephen Chow--who bowed out as director- is still very much set to play his sidekick, Kato. Rogen wrote the script with Evan Goldberg,

Neal H. Moritz is producing this new incarnation of the crime fighter from 30's radio and 60's TV.

Moritz: “We’re huge fans of Michel Gondry. ’Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind’ and all his films are as daring as they are extraordinary, fueled by creative ideas that spring from his unique worldview. Our first rule, always, is to make the movie that we want to see, and that couldn’t be truer than with Michel bringing his stylish and original touch to the helm"

True, but his Be Kind Rewind is genius stuff...GH has great potential with Gondry in the big chair...

Gondry came up with a presentation that excited suits Doug Belgrad and Matt Tolmach

This will be the most overtly commercial film of Gondry's career, and is targeted for a June 25th 2010 release.
