The studio just released two brand new “Green Lantern” posters. The posters focus on Sinestro (Mark Strong) and Killowog (voiced by Michael Clarke Duncan).
Overall, the posters look very impressive; the makeup/prosthetic work on Strong is awesome–he looks just like the comic book character–and the CGI work on Kilowog doesn’t look half bad either. In fact, these posters raise my hopes about the film. Some people have misgivings about how Clarke Duncan’s voice is going to sound coming out of Kilowog, but personally, I don’t see the big deal. But perhaps I’m not a big enough “Green Lantern” comic book fan.
“Green Lantern” follows the story of Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds) as he is given a ring from a dying Green Lantern member and is tranported to the planet Oa, the headquarters of the Green Lantern Corp. Here, Jordan learns what the Corp. is and what it takes to be a Green Lantern member.
Also starring Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Geoffrey Rush, Angela Bassett, and Tim Robbins, the film comes out in theaters June 17 of this year.
What do you think of these posters? If Kilowog’s voice is a fear of yours, why is it so? Expound on these questions and more in the comments section below.
