What a week!
Some nubile minds out there may remember a certain Mr Reynolds stealing the show from our favourite Marvel character – Wolverine/Hugh Jackmen in his latest comic book stint.
Yes! The ever wise cracking Deadpool reared his scarred face and double samurai swords to such great heights that a spin off movie had more hype than you could shake a stick at.
And now….he’s given up on our Marvel hero Deadpool and switched to the DC Universe for the Green Lantern! Woop! Woop!
What more can be said than “this guy loves comic book roles”.
The Green Lantern Reynolds will be playing is one Hal Jordan from the Silver Age of the DC Universe.
Hal Jordan is a cocky USAF test pilot (perfect for Reynolds), chatty, wisecracking, brave and courageous. In the process of testing a flight simulator he is transported to the side of a dying alien called Abin Sur. Knowing his death is near he gives posession of his power ring to Jordan making him a member of the Green Lantern Corps (Guardians of the Universe). Jordan now a member of Green Lantern Corps becomes a member of the Justice League and goes on to become an essential comic hero!
What this means for Deadpool we don’t know, but either way we’re excited to see yet another comic book hero brought to life by Deadpool….I mean Reynolds.
