Darker Green

Warner Bros. still wants to make a Green Lantern sequel despite the $200 million-budget and only making $114 million domestically and a a paltry $40.1 million internationally.


WB suit Jeffrey Robinov told The L.A. Times that the film's $53 million opening weekend demonstrated to him there is an audience there for it, however "to go forward we need to make it a little edgier and darker with more emphasis on action… And we have to find a way to balance the time the movie spends in space versus on Earth.”

The studio already has a sequel outline by Greg Berlanti, Michael Green and Marc Guggenheim but that will either be significantly changed or scrapped for the sequel.

First film director  Martin Campbell with whom the studio was reportedly unhappy with will not return but his deal apparently had a sequel option meaning even if he walks away he'll receive some kind of paycheck for Green Lantern 2
