October 29, 2007: According to Variety, the latest name to be thrown into the ring to direct a Green Lantern movie for Warner Bros. is Greg Berlanti, a television writer and executive producer who is responsible for shows like "Dirty Sexy Money," "Brothers & Sisters," "Everwood," "Jack and Bobby," and "Dawson's Creek." Berlanti, who directed the 2000 feature The Broken Hearts Club, will co-write the script with "Brothers & Sisters" co-writer Marc Guggenheim, who has a good amount of comic book writing experience, and Michael Green, the co-executive-producer of NBC's hit show "Heroes." -Thanks to 'Superherohype' for the news!
December 20, 2004: From ComicBookResources: "The Mysterious Stranger" sent an email to our old friend Rob Worley, who forwarded it on to us, which we'll quote here: "Apparently ... 'Farscape' star Ben Browder was up for the role [of Green Lantern]. At the 5th Annual Farscape Convention in Burbank, California, Ben was in attendance. During the Q&A period of his talk on Sunday Nov 21 he was asked about the GL rumors. His response was that he hadn't heard anything about it but his agent was going to hear about it the following Monday. To his knowledge he isn't up for the role, although he did say that it was possible (emphasis on possible) that his 'people" were keeping him in the dark so as not to get his hopes up.' -Thanks to 'David' for the heads up!
August 7, 2004: Newsarama says that, according to this week's Entertainment Weekly, the rumors of actor Jack Black starring as Green Lantern, were just that – rumors. "I took a meeting with someone who has the rights, but there's no [Green Lantern] script," Black told EW. "I'd be interested if there was a really good writer attached, but it's far from a [done deal]." Thanks to 'the Rizor' for the heads up!
July 19, 2004: According to 'AICN', Jack Black has signed a deal to start in the Green Lantern movie: "He will be playing Green Lantern in a film that has been described as a "zany comedy version a la THE MASK." All rights to the DC comic have been worked out as well, so you can expect to start hearing more about this project in the months ahead." Thanks to 'AZRAEL', 'Duane', 'Christopher', 'J. Krishnamurti', and 'Slim' for sending in the news! We'll keep you posted on anything official.
