Common Out As Green Lantern In Justice League Movie
Early this year, HipHopDX reported that Chicago rapper Common would play the role of The Green Lantern in the upcoming comic-book based film Justice League of America [click to read]. But according to Wooha.com, Common will no longer be playing the role of The Green Lantern.
The site claims that Warner Brothers has chosen to develop the script around Hal Jordan instead of John Stewart, the African American Green Lantern. Currently, actor Chris Pine, who stars in the upcoming Star Trek movie, is in the running for the role of the new Green Lantern.
Common has made a number of silver screen appearances in the past few years. He has starred in American Gangster, Wanted, Smokin’ Aces, and the upcoming Terminator Salvation movie.
In related news, the two-time Grammy winner and 37-year-old emcee will be the face of Diesel's new fragrance campaign, "Only the Brave."
"Common perfectly represents the spirit and energy of the 'Only the Brave' fragrance: passion, will and conviction," Diesel founder and President Renzo Rosso said in a released statement.
Directed by Martin Campbell, the Justice League movie is expected to be released December 17, 2010. Diesel's "Only the Brave" fragrance was released at Macy’s, Dillard’s, Belk and Sephora stores earlier this week.
