JT is Green Lantern? | Movie News
When a rumor crops up that pop superstar man candy Justin Timberlake is looking to play the titular superhero in the upcoming comic adapted GREEN LANTERN, it's usually from a British tabloid looking to score some easy hits with a "what the fuck?" bullshit rumor (Cher as Catwoman, anyone?). But when grand daddy geek Harry from "Ain't It Cool News" is the one doing the rumor mongering, it's not quite as ridiculous. What's more, Harry's quick to point out that J. Tims has screen tested for the role and is being seriously considered, not that he's already signed on the dotted line. Still, though, he really shouldn't be a serious contender. No offense to Timberdog because he's proven himself to be quite a capable actor but this role needs someone who won't overshadow the character. What do you guys think?

Extra Tidbit: Timberlake's middle name is Randall.

I don't have anything specific against the dude, but other than name recognition, why cast him? He doesn't at all scream "Hal Jordan" to me.

He needs something to project him onto the A-list and this could be it. He's got a great screen presence, a cult following, and great humor. There was a fake trailer made for Green Latern on Youtube starring Fillion. After I saw it, I was convinced. Look it up.

Anytime I see him, whether he's acting or not, he's got that gangsta southern accent.
Hopefully the guys who are doing lantern have better judgement.

We need someone serious to play the role.
(Btw, I wonder how JT is taking MJ's death, he idolized the man and owes his entire career after his boyband days to MJ)

Dear Mr. Campbell,
Thanks for saving the Bond franchise (twice) but will you please cast Nathan Fillion already? Thanks.

Nathan Fillion or Bradley Cooper! Come on! That's all we've been hearing and now they drop a bomb like THIS!
(Not that I mind Timberlake himself, I just don't want him as GL.)
