Chris Pine May Be Circling Green Lantern & Not Wonder Woman After All

Chris Pine could yet be joining Warner Bros’ DC Cinematic Universe, but possibly not as the love interest of Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman, as was rumoured earlier this year.

Latino Review - while covering the news that the new Green Lantern movie may star several human Lanterns - reports that Pine may in fact be circling the role of Hal Jordan, the most popular character to adopt the Green Lantern mantle.

“Pine was rumored to be a candidate for Hal Jordan way back when we realised Ryan Reynolds would never float in a green suit again, and the rumors of Pine circling ‘Wonder Woman’ were actually Pine closing in on the role of Hal Jordan,” reads their report.

Back in May Variety reported that Pine was in talks to play Steve Trevor, the love interest of the Amazonian warrior.

As mentioned by Latino Review, Pine was linked to the Hal Jordan role a while back, and was widely considered a good choice for the role by fans.

The upcoming 'Green Lantern’ movie is still a few years away (2020) but the character (at least one version of him) may very well appear in 2017’s 'Justice League’ opposite Henry Cavill’s Superman and Ben Affleck’s Batman.
