Green Lantern movie plot revealed

Green Lantern 's official plot has been unveiled by Warner Bros.

Having chatted with those shadowy investor blokes who put their bajillions into promising movie projects (and then have their names chucked onto the end credits), Warner Bros discussed their ideas for movie version of The Flash, Wonder Woman and… Green Lantern.

Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity.

With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax… he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.

Green Lantern is currently shooting with Martin Campbell at the helm and Ryan Reynolds as the titular hero. It will be released in June 2011.
