Peter Sarsgaard Cast As Hector Hammond In Green Lantern
The villain that will face off against Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan/Green Lantern has been found for the film due out in 2011.
It had been assumed by most people that the villain for the Green Lantern movie would be his most well-known enemy, Sinestro. Well, in a curve ball out of nowhere, Peter Sarsgaard has been cast as the lesser-known villain, Hector Hammond. This is a bit of a shock, but I see an interesting possibility that this means we meet Sinestro in this film, but he doesn’t turn evil until a possible second film.
This is the second big piece of casting news this week for this film as it was just announced that Blake Lively of Gossip Girl has been cast as Carol Ferris, Hal Jordan’s love interest.
Filming begins in March in New Orleans for a June 17, 2011 release date
