DC Cinematic Universe confirmed last July that "Green Lantern" reboot is happening and the movie will be officially called "Green Lantern Corps." The announcement was made during Warner Brother's panel at the Comic-Con International in San Diego.
According to MTV, an image appeared as the studio revealed the news about the remake and the character resembled to Chris Pine.
"Odds are that he'll be Hal Jordan, but we don't know for sure," the website reported.
However, it seems that the 34-year-old actor just ditched the "Green Lantern Corps" as he chose to star as Steve Trevor in "Wonder Woman."
According to The Wrap, the character will be no mere love interest for Gal Gadot's Diana Prince, as there will be plenty of action to keep him busy, though plot details remained undisclosed.
Aside from the Chris Pine rumors, there were also speculations that Tyrese Gibson will be appearing as John Stewart in the reboot.
"There are certain things I can't speak on," the 36-year-old actor told ET! Online. "But I will say, however this works out, it's definitely the fans' fault. I was at home minding my own business and fans start creating these fan-made videos of me as Green Lantern and I looked into it."
DC Movies hasn't revealed the cast of "Green Lantern Corps" yet, but a fan-made trailer leaked online which started out rumors that Idris Elba and Garrett Hedlund will star in the new movie.
The 42-year-old British actor is known for his role as Detective John Luther in the TV series "Luther" and has starred as Heimdall in the "Thor" franchise.
The 31-year-old screen heartthrob, on the other hand, has appeared in major Hollywood movies such as "Tron: Legacy", "Troy" and "On The Road."
Idris has showed interest in being part of the DC movie when he replied to a fan that posted a photo of him wearing the Green Lantern outfit. "Thank you baby love..I like this idea..." he wrote on Twitter.
Many fans think that Idris Elba and Garrett Hedlund are perfect for the roles.
