CHUD have been speaking with producer, Donald De Line on the set of “Observe and Report”. De Line is involved with the Green Lantern movie adaptation and has spoken to address some recent internet rumors.

Jack Black is no longer attached to the feature and the adaptation shall not be produced as a comedy - I can hear fans breathing a sigh of relief! Current status leaves them waiting for a first draft from director Greg Berlanti, which should be arriving soon.

Variety have stated that the relatively inexperienced Greg Berlanti (writer for character driven shows such as Everwood and Brothers & Sisters) shall both direct and script write the live action film adaptation.

Marc Guggenheim and Michael Green will also be involved in the script writing process, with Donald De Line producing and Andrew Haas as executive producer,

Both Guggenheim and Green have worked with Berlanti before and each has Comic Hero writing experience. Guggenheim wrote the Marvel comic books “Amazing Spider-Man,” “Wolverine” and “Blade.” Whilst, Michael Green, currently the “Heroes” co-executive producer, was a writer-producer on “Smallville” and was involved in the “Superman/Batman” publication.

The project is officially under way, under the guidance of Warner Brothers and DC Comics
