Ewww.

Nathan Fillion, or don't even use Hal Jordan at all. I'd personally prefer Jon Stewart, whom I think John Boyega or Ludacris would do a great job with.

I'm surprised Cruise hasn't been in a superhero movie already. Or at least not one that I can think of.

James Gunn would probably make a kick-ass Jon Stewart Green Lantern movie.

According to Crazy Days and Nights, Warner Bros. has their sights set on Cruise for the role of Green Lantern but the current script calls for Hal Jordan to die which Cruise is against. The actor is asking for this part of the script to be changed before he takes the gig.

lol what? Does he just want to be able to do sequels or is this a scientology thing?

I think they're going with an older actor for a reason. After all, it's called Green Lantern Corps. They're probably going to put him in the mentor role.

I was going to say this is a Tom Cruise thing and was gonna mention that Will Smith also makes demands like this and then it hit me that maybe you're right.

None of those new guys they suck as much as Hal.

I'd much rather have Hal over Guy.

But seriously, they should do John.

No. He's been a Yellow and Red Lantern.

John Stewart is the only true Green Lantern, because, unlike Hal who was nothing more than a snot-nosed pilot, Stewart was a Marine Scout Sniper - meaning he started as a badass, and was forged into an indestructible force of will.

Tom Cruise did a movie where he died literally dozens of times

I think he just wants to be in more than one movie

I could see that. I'm not sure he's got that quirky, embarrassed humor that I always felt was a small-but-important part of Stewart's character, though.

The film is going to be a buddy cop film according to what we know.

Having both Hal and John, I wish we were getting Kyle and Guy too.

If Hal actually dies I'll be pissed though, he's clearly the best lantern.

No he's not.

Lawrence Fishburne is in both.
