Though I feel Reynolds is an odd fit as well. It seems more like these choices were considered for buzz popularities sake more than character. Hmm, that doesn't give much hopeful expectation for the film production..

Cooper I think doesn't really fit the look, but like him.. stick with A-Team. Reynolds I think this could finally be the movie that sets him apart, but with that said he is playing Deadpool so I don't really like that. Still what great two characters to play can't get much better than that then Batman & Wolverine. I'd like to see an unknow actor like Clay Olah. By the way love that their doing Hal Jordan! How about just get a solid actor. The fact that Timberlake is mentioned is a joke & I'm not a hater, but no way could he ever be a lead actor.

This boomer WILL go medieval on their ass. For those of you who are not cognoscente of the fact, I AM OLDER THAN ALL OF YOU PUT TOGETHER.

I don't think The Lake should be cast here. He overshadows the role with his "celebrity." He hasn't proven he can really act, outside of singing in skits (Alpha Dog excluded). I guess this role should go to Cooper by default of the 3 options. Hangover has put him on the map but he's not so big that we will go "I am distracted by Cooper in this role." <br>The Rake<br><a href="http://thefilmnest.com" rel="nofollow">http://thefilmnest.com</a> Clever blog post title.

I'd only be comfortable casting either Cooper or Reynolds, given that they've played serious roles in the past, which I assume is the nature of the "Green Lanterns". Yet, Timberlake does have the acting talent to hold his own, as we've seen on "Saturday Night Live". Let's just pray to God that if he is cast, he doesn't give a repeat performance of his "The Love Guru" role.

Although it may be because he's a musician bridging over to acting, he received some decent praise for his role in Alpha Dog, and wasn't terrible in Black Snake Moan. I think there are probably better choices in terms of the "suited-for-the-character", but I think most people just assume Timberlake would be a terrible actor and ruin it from that perspective.
