One day it'll all make sense. Or not. According to director George Miller in an interview with MTV, rapper Common is still attatched to the role of Green Lantern John Stewart in a Justice League film. This matches up with recent statements made by Common in an interview with Fresh Ink's Blair Butler. Warner Bros. is still planning to develop the other characters before releasing the team film, so it'll be quite some time before shooting actually begins.
Good. That leaves plenty of time for them to change their minds. Look, it's well known that I think Common is overrated, smug, and self important as a rapper, but it's his acting that I despise right now. He's been dreadful in everything, in my humble opinion, even when he's doing nothing but standing in the background it looks as if he's trying terribly hard to look impressive. Why not get someone with some actual acting chops to take the role? Like Chiwetel Ejiofor? Proven actor with plenty of action film experience, and they won't have to waste a single cent having his trailer decked out in earthtones. Think about it, WB.
