SCI FI Wire talked to Green Lantern screenwriter Marc Guggenheim on the status of the Martin Campbell-directed comic book adaptation, which Warner Bros. Pictures has scheduled for a June 17, 2011 release. Here's a clip:
"In fact, I'm ... delivering another draft today," Guggenheim (TV's Flash Forward) said in an exclusive interview on Friday. "So it continues to move forward."
The film is expected to be directed by Martin Campbell, who stepped in for Berlanti, and is slated to begin production at Australia's Fox Studios in Sydney this summer for a release on June 17, 2011.
Guggenheim confirmed that his script will focus on Hal Jordan, based on the Silver Age DC Comics incarnation of the superhero, and how he became a member of the Green Lantern Corps.
