Another superhero movie is in the works and according to SuperHeroHype and Collider , it could be a very promising one. Both these sources had a chance to talk to producer, Donald  De Line, about the upcoming Warner Bros./DC Comics film and this is what he had to say:

“Our story is the Hal Jordan origin story, but creating the character of Hal Jordan that is a real character that will resonate with the fan base is what we need to do. You have to make him credible and somebody to care about and tell a good story, and I think if we do that, we’ll be okay.”

Following a question about the humor content of the movie he replied by saying that,

“It’s going to be a series of big stakes and big action, but it absolutely has a sense of humor…I think people accept real life, even with really serious situations, with humor as part of that situation, as we experience in life, you have to have that. That’s how people cope, so they’ve done it so well in these other movies. I think that people are absolutely ready. It doesn’t have to fall on one side of the fence vs. the other.”

Green Lantern is currently scheduled to open on December 16, 2010.

On another note, it seems that a sequel to De Line’s 2003 hit, The Italian Job, is in the works and will be titled The Brazilian Job.

De Line was hopeful about the film finally rolling forward.

“We’re trying right now. They all want to do the sequel. We have a version at Paramount that we’re talking very serious about, so hopefully, if we’re lucky in the next year we can pull it together. They’re all very successful and very busy, which is great, but they all have a real affection and passion for that movie, so they want to come back and do another, which is nice. We’ll get them together hopefully.”
