Warner Brothers are about to choose the lucky actor who will be play Green Lantern in the upcoming DC live action movie.
The Hollywood Reporter, recently reported that the casting search had spanned five months with a number of actors, including Michael Fassbender, Jared Leto and Henry Cavill. Director Martin Campbell and producers Donald De Line and Greg Berlanti have narrowed it down to the following three stars: Bradley Cooper, Ryan Reynolds and a big surprise Justin Timberlake.
Some reports are even claiming that Timberlake is the favourite for the role, which would be a huge surprise to Green Lantern fans.
Bradley Cooper, who’s been mentioned with the project for ages, and Ryan Reynolds, who’s rapidly becoming the guy to ask to do Superhero movies. Reynolds played Hannibal King in Blade: Trinity and played in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, he’s been linked with The Flash as well.
If Reynolds gets the role, then he’s going to have to find a way to balance being Green Lantern and playing Wade Wilson/Deadpool again in the Wolverine spin-off. Green Lantern is nearly ready to film, with some sets being constructed in Sydney, while Deadpool is a alone way off . However whether Reynolds may feel that he’s all superheroed out remains to be seen.
Whatever Michael Campbell and Warner Brothers decide, they’ve need to get on with it. As the holding deals with all three actors expired on Monday, allowing them to take on new projectsWarner Brothers are about to choose the lucky actor who will be play Green Lantern in... more

Producer Jim Stern issued a warning call to the indie business Saturday, saying that if it wanted to endure, it needed to stop working at cross purposes with itself and its financiers.
Speaking in the high-profile slot at the Los Angeles Film Festival where Mark Gill last year gave his now-famous 'The Sky is Falling' speech, Stern told the audience that the indie world needed to more deeply consider marketing and financing.
"It's been hip to disrespect the money," he said. And "most businesses have a complete plan from the start of a project, which includes the whole chain, from manufacturing through distribution. Ours typically does not."
Instead, he said filmmakers needed to develop marketing plans and work more closely with financiers. "We need to cut costs, mitigate risks, target our audience," he said.
The Endgame Entertainment principal, the producer behind such pics as "A Chorus Line" documentary "Every Little Step" and Mark Ruffalo con-man movie "The Brothers Bloom," spoke during the Finance Conference at the festival. The address has become a kind of barometer for the state of the indie business.
Last year, Gill gave a keynote in which he warned that financing models, distributors and other part of the indie world were on the brink of collapse. Less than a week later, Paramount Vantage was consolidated; a year later, the indie world finds itself in a far bleaker place.
Given the market travails, Stern faced a tough task with his address: He couldn't simply underscore the misery, but he also couldn't risk sounding overly optimistic about the indie world's future.
So he walked a fine line, acknowledging the brutal realities but offering several ways out
"We're upside down on the mortgage and it's time to mail in the keys," he said, citing the stat that nearly 10,000 films were submitted to Sundance last year, but only three so far have been released theatrically.
In parts sounding like the second coming of Gill, Stern described a climate in which studio tentpoles are flourishing but the number of indies that have made even $1 million this year has dwindled from 16 at this point last year to six.
But he also prescribed several solutions. He highlighted what he called "smarter movies" -- those that were careful about budgets and conscious about audience.
Filmmakers who followed their own heart at the expense of the market, Stern said, were due for a rude awakening.
"I love Sundance," he said. "But it gave rise to a sense of entitlement to personal films," adding that filmmakers are at a point in the business cycle that "if you make a personal film, don't be surprised if it doesn't get an audience, or, even much worse, if it doesn't get sold." (Continued...)
