hopefully they pick a decent and good actor for hal, all we know is they are looking for mid 20s-early 30s age for actor for hal since he is 27 in the script.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Hal Jordan - Sam Worthington
Sinestro - Mad Mikkelsen
Carol Ferris - Michelle Monaghan
Kilowog - Ving Rhames
Hector Hammond - Hugh Laurie
Ganthet - John Hurt

interesting sinestro suggestion

 

[BlackLantern]

I don't think Mikkelsen can rock the Sinestro 'stache....I still say Timothy Dalton for Sinestro

 

[Eddie Dean]

Hmm... definitely a few years back. He's a little old now.

 

[Antonello Blueberry]

what about, Joshua Jackson???

I am in a minority here, but I'm not against the idea.

 

[I Am The Knight]

what about, Joshua Jackson???

You want Pacey in this??

 

[REDophile]

Well, Joshua Jackson did work with Berlanti on Dawson's Creek, and auditioned for Batman.

 

[Eddie Dean]

I kind of settled on Hugh Laurie as Hector Hammond, how about David Thewlis instead?

and that means what, exactly?

 

[ANTOINE X]

Hal Jordan - Sam Worthington

Carol Ferris - Michelle Monaghan
Kilowog - Ving Rhames
Hector Hammond - Hugh Laurie
Ganthet - John Hurt

Ok one thing I Don't get here...When you said Ving Rhames you mean as a voice actor right? Cause there is no other way than CG for kilowog face.

Remote controlled mask? Like they used to do up 'till the late '90s?
Predator? Bigfoot Harry? The Ninja Turtles?

 

[Eddie Dean]

Not to mention most of the creatures in Hellboy.

No offense but the face needed to be more articulated. I'm Thinking more Lucas CGI

Dexter Jettster

or watto

 

[Antonello Blueberry]

No, please no Watto.

Wink could easily be the base for a Kilowog manipulation.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Id rather have a prosthetic face on Ving than CGI, so basically if they have to change the design just a little I wont care.

 

[I Am The Knight]

and that means what, exactly?

Probably that he could get a shot at the role by simple director/studio association. But Worthington owns Pacey. And I say that without ever seeing anything that Worthington has been in

Nice costume i'll give you that but at the same time too constipated. Especially for facial expression you need CG to achieve something acceptable.

They could use the special effects for King Kong.

The guy who did the Vogons was pretty good.

The Jim Henson Creature Shop.
They've done really great things with creatures during the years. Not to mention the Muppets.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea i rather keep most of the alien green lanterns actual actors/actors in posthesis suits with just cgi enhancements to fix things a bit.

 

[Dark Knight]

Hal Jordan - Sam Worthington
Sinestro - Mad Mikkelsen
Carol Ferris - Michelle Monaghan
Kilowog - Ving Rhames
Hector Hammond - Hugh Laurie
Ganthet - John Hurt

Solid choices, but Sinestro needs to more of a name. Michelle Monaghan is a good choice as Carol. Michael Clark Duncan would be a good for Kilowog.

Prosthetics and Jim Hensons creature shop style is the way to go. CGI should not be used too much for the look of the alien creatures
