The Green Lantern franchise is one that is yet to be translated into a big-screen or adapted in live-adaptation. While the project was announced almost a year back, with Greg Barlanti directing and Marc Guggenheim and Michael Green penning the scripts, no updates were made until today.

Guggenheim spoke to ComicCon.com, revealing that he has been working his “ass off” for the project, adding that the film will feature an “incredibly faithful rendition of [Hal Jordan’s] character.”

“It honors everything everyone loves about the hero. We approach it from a fan’s perspective. Every step of the way, we ask ourselves what we want to see and what the fans will want to see. I think we have a script that will actually satisfy on those levels.”
