Ryan Reynolds is The Green Lantern.

... finalized but Warner Bros is hoping to begin shooting in January, hoping to have the films in theaters for the previously announced June 17th 2011 release date.
What do you think of the choice of Ryan Reynolds? He certainly looks the part and has the right physique for the role. I’m wondering how this may effect Marvel/Fox’s preliminary plans to have him play Deadpool in a stand-alone film.

BREAKING: Ryan Reynolds is The Green Lantern!
Cinematical —
In a very surprising move, Ryan Reynolds has won the much-coveted lead role in Warner Bros. live-action version of Green Lantern. We reported earlier this morning that Reynolds was up for the role alongside Bradley Cooper and Justin Timberlake, but thought he'd be a longshot considering the fact that he was also gearing up for a solo Deadpool spin-off. But Green Lantern is definitely a better (and more popular) role for him, and Warners probably liked the fact that Reynolds comes with a nice healthy package of charisma ...

The Green Lantern chooses safe option
Filmstalker —
RyanReynolds.jpg Ryan Reynolds has been named as the actor to play The Green Lantern. The actor who has played two superhero types and has been talked about with reference to a few others in the past few years has landed the role, and I'm sure it won't be his last. He certainly has the rugged looks and the athletic body for the role of a superhero, but I can't help thinking we missed a trick with Bradley Cooper. I don't think for a second that Justin Timberlake ...

Answering the prayers of literally hundreds of internet nerds, Ryan Reynolds has been chosen to star in Warner’s Green Lantern movie. Production is expected to start in January with Martin Campbell directing and a budget of around $200 million. On Friday it was reported that Warner had narrowed their potential Green Lanterns to Reynolds, Justin Timberlake, and Brad Cooper. Reynolds already played Deadpool in Wolverine (which Fox still wants to spinoff into its own movie) and for a while was in talks to play The Flash. So probably he seemed like the least creative option, and that’s what committees of ...
