He told them that the 'Lantern' origin story will be dealt with quickly in the film.
"It is [an origin story] to a certain degree, but it's not a labored origin story, where the movie [truly] begins in the third act... We find out Hal is the guy fairly early on, and the adventure begins".
Despite action and major special effects, Reynolds says much of the film's best moments are "moments where the guy's not in the suit".
And now a GL shocker! Regular readers of the blog already know that I'm not exactly the biggest Quentin Tarantino fan...
Tarantino recently revealed to MTV that he was once offered the chance to direct the big screen adaptation of the ring bearer.
"I was offered the 'Green Lantern...Not since it's been a script, but just like, 'Hey we own the 'Green Lantern.' Would you like it?'"
Tarantino (thankfully) said no and "Lantern" joined the list of other franchises, like "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.," that he was offered but never ended up taking on.
"Green Lantern," of course, is now being helmed by Martin Campbell...
Big sigh of relief there...Whew Thank you movie gods!
