Exclusive First Look at "The Green Lantern"!!!

Well the Green Lantern has been revealed...

Check out the exclusive first look of next week's Entertainment Weekly (EW) cover. EW describes Reynolds' character as a "cocky test pilot who becomes a ring-wearing intergalactic superhero ..." Martin Campbell (Casino Royale) directs, and the film co-stars Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Tim Robbins and Angela Bassett.

One of the more interesting things about Reynolds and this Green Lantern costume is that the entire get-up is being created with computers and placed on Reynolds after the fact.

So all my Green Lantern and comic book fans, what do you think?

The Green Lantern hits theaters on June 17th, 2011.

Angela Bassett to join wedding comedy "Jumping the Broom"

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Angela Bassett will star alongside Paula Patton in Jumping the Broom, a wedding-themed ensemble comedy.

Also joining the cast of the Columbia Pictures project are rapper/actor Romeo Miller and Laz Alonso.
"Broom" revolves around the clash of two black families from opposite ends of the socioeconomic spectrum meeting for the first time during a weekend wedding in Martha's Vineyard. Bassett will play Patton's mother, an heiress and a pillar of the Washington elite.

Miller plays Patton's cousin, a senior at Yale. Alonso will play Patton's love interest. Shooting begins soon in Nova Scotia. TV veteran Salim Akil ("Girlfriends") will direct.

It has been a minute since we have seen Ms. Angela on the big screen, and I am excited for her return. Also just recently, Bassett has wrapped-up shooting Green Lantern, playing Dr. Amanda Waller in the comic-book adaptation. In addition to these two upcoming films, she is casting her directorial debut, United States, which is slated to go before cameras in the fall.
