Newsarama has a rundown of films that Warner Brothers just announced are slated for release in 2010 and 2011, and there look to be a few at least semi-interesting comic book and genre based picks in there.
Here’s the list, from Newsarama (with their commentary):
Sherlock Holmes – Directed by Guy Ritchie and starring Robert Downey Jr. is now due in theaters on Christmas Day, 2009, bumped from November 13th.
Clash of the Titans – a remake by Incredible Hulk director Louis Leterrier is due in theaters on March 26th, 2010.
Green Lantern – directed by Martin Campbell, is due in theaters on December 17th, 2010.
Inception – Christopher Nolan’s next film after The Dark Knight due in theaters on July 16th 2010
Jonah Hex – Josh Brolin and John Malkovich get it on, Western style on August 6th, 2010.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part One on November 19th, 2010, and Part Two now slated for a July 15th, 2011 release.
Green Lantern is a character that I’ve always had a fondness for and have tried to follow more than a few times over the years. For some reason, though, I just never quite manage to latch onto him. I don’t know if it’s the cosmic angle, or what, but I have heard and read that Goeff Johns has done a terrific job revamping the character in recent years and bringing a whole new mythology to the book.
For that reason alone (and hoping that the producers of the film pay attention to the books) the idea of a film definitely piques my interest. I mean, it’s at least gotta end up being better than that Spawn movie.
Right?
Just passing by.Btw, you website have great content!
