IESB and Latino Review are reporting that Chris Pine, who is already set to play James T. Kirk in the new Star Trek reboot, has been offered the lead role in Warner Bros. upcoming Green Lantern film. He would be taking on the role of Hal Jordan, without doubt the most well known ringbearer and one of the DC Comics most iconic heroes.
I'm kinda diggin' this selection if this pans out. Although Jordan is a man in his 30's, Pine seems to occupy a middle ground where he could appeal to both new and older fans. I still think ultimately he would be a better fit for Kyle Rayner, the GL who replaced Hal Jordan for awhile, but there's no way in hell they'd do a Green Lantern film without Hal.
