Green Lantern: Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern

Image via WikipediaGreen Lantern is coming this June and adds to the incredible lineup of comic book movies coming out this year. I thought that Ryan Reynolds was a bit of an odd choice for Hal Jordan as although I thought he nailed Deadpool, Hal Jordan seems to be more of a strong and dramatic character rather than a comedic one. The trailers I've seen have a bit more comedy than I might like for Green Lantern, but I am intrigued nonetheless.

Despite Fillion's similarity to the character of Hal Jordan, the actor lost out on the live-action role, but Warner Bros. has found an alternative for Fillion: voicing the character in an upcoming animated Green Lantern movie.

TVGuide reports that Fillion will voice the character in Green Lantern: Emerald Knights, arriving on DVD June 7 from Warner Bros. Animation. In the movie, Hal Jordan mentors Arisia, a new recruit to the Green Lantern Corps., voiced by Elisabeth Moss (Get Him to the Greek, Mad Men).

Gifted by the Green Lantern Corps with a power ring capable of creating anything his mind can imagine and his will can muster, test pilot Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds) is ready to take on...birthday parties?!? Promotional art for director Martin Campbell's Green Lantern adaptation has been somewhat scarce. Now a whole bunch of new art for the movie has turned up in an unlikely place—the "Green Lantern Party Supplies" album of Simply Superheroes' Facebook page. Included are numerous shots of Reynolds flying through space in costume as Green Lantern, as well as a couple shots of the alien Lanterns Kilowog and Tomar-Re.
