Have you heard of the upcoming Green Lantern movie? Well, Green Lantern is a new superhero film based on the comic book character appearing in the very popular DC comics. This film is led by actor Ryan Reynolds who will play the role of Hal Jordan.

This film will be directed by Martin Campbell and scheduled for release on June 17, 2011.

This movie sounds very interesting just like any superhero movies. The story will revolve around how the Green Lantern Corps will protect the universe against various threats and will be highlighted by the existence of a new enemy called the Parallax that threatens to destroy the power and balance of the universe and only one man can help them in their mission and this is a man named Hal Jordan. To give you an idea, Hal Jordan is a test pilot working for the United States Air Force that is destined to be the greatest Green Lantern of all and the ultimate key to defeating the Parallax.
