An article in Superherohype has revealed the newest Hollywood talent to be selected for the upcoming Green Lantern live action film, and joining the Martin Campbell directed film will be Gossip Girl star Blake Lively, who will play Hal Jordan's love interest, Carol Ferris!
Those aware of GL History will know that Carol is Hal's boss, running the aerospace company that her father owns and hiring Jordan (played by Ryan Reynolds) to become their test pilot. This occupation ultimately leads to Hal acquiring the ring from a dying Abin Sur and succeeding him as Green Lantern of Space Sector 2814. Eventually, Hal's dual life exposes Carol to several adventures and misadventures, and she eventually becomes the villain Star Sapphire, whom Hal has to confront and save countless times. Right now, Carol as Star Sapphire supports Hal and the rest of the Color brigade in confronting the Blackest Night. How that will turn out, and the love between the two for the matter, will be resolved in a few months time when that miniseries ends.
The Green Lantern movie starts shooting this March and is slated for a June 17, 2011 release.
