The Green Hornet just keeps getting less and less interesting the more I see and hear of it. One of the most interesting aspects of the film to me, Nic Cage's potential role as the gangster villain, is now *poof* up in friggin' smoke. Cage has decided not to participate in the film, in order to focus on a slew of other projects. He just recently signed on to the action flick, Drive Angry, and my pick for worst title of the season, The Hungry Rabbit Jumps. Cage was never officially signed on for his role in The Green Hornet, but the fact that he had to officially decline goes to show how close he was to being a part of it.
No word yet as to who will replace Cage, but the search is ongoing. The Hollywood Reporter has more on the story here.
