Villain set for Green Lantern movie

Interview: Dustin Nguyen

Batman: Streets of Gotham artist Dustin Nguyen has brought to life characters of the DCU with his unique and striking art style. Dustin’s art work can also be found in the pages of Wildstorm, Supernatural, and the Friday the 13th books. A favorite among comic fans, I had the pleasure to speak with him about his career, comics and the return of Bruce Wayne.

Review: Batman and Robin #10

For the last couple of years, Grant Morrison has given readers of the Batman series some really out there moments, culminating with the apparent death of Bruce Wayne at the end of Final Crisis. Now it’s time to bring things back to status quo, and the return of Bruce Wayne begins in the latest issue of Batman and Robin.

For a while, we’ve been wondering which Green Lantern villain would appear in the upcoming Ryan Reynold Green Lantern flick. H’wood has answered by tagging Peter Sarsgaard to play Dr. Hector Hammond. With Blackest Night being a big deal right now, it is to understand why the Suits would decide to go this route. On the other hand, I’m sure many will be surprised Sinestro isn’t making the big villain debut. From the Warner Bros. standpoint this decision does make sense as Batman Begins did the same thing with Scarecrow and Ra’s al Ghul before the big Joker flick that was The Dark Knight.

Green Lantern is schedule to begin shooting in March.

Presumably, Sinestro will be in the film as Hal’s trainer with possible hints to his future turn. Hopefully, we won’t get a situation where Billy Dee Williams becomes Tommy Lee Jones.

Wow.

I would have sworn we would have gotten some version of Emerald Dawn & Emerald Dawn II with Sinestro as the big bad.

But, once you make the connection with the way they did the Batman movies, yeah, then it makes sense. I would like to see The Shark or the Invisible Destroyer though.

Maybe this won’t be a shallow one shot type movie?

Again, Wow.
