I was like everyone else who cried, “WTF???” when it was announced that Seth Rogen was going to be the Green Hornet in the upcoming remake. I mean, seriously, has he ever played anything but an out of shape stoner? Then I saw him after his physical conditioning and I was like, wow, he’s serious about this. I still wasn’t convinced, but I respected him for the dramatic change in his lifestyle for the role. Then I saw images Green Hornet’s car, Black Beauty, and I felt the first quivering of excitement in the pit of my stomach. Now Sony has released these official stills of the film and I’m convinced: Seth Rogen could very well pull this sonuvabitch off!
THE GREEN HORNET tells the story of Britt Reid (Rogen), a publisher by day, who fights crime as the vigilante Green Hornet by night with his trusty sidekick Kato (Jay Chou). The film opens on January 14, 2011 and I’m officially excited. What do you guys think? Think Rogen can pull it off?
