Is X-MEN Star James Marsden Also Being Eyed For Hal Jordan Role In GREEN LANTERN CORPS?
With six names already said to be in the mix for the role of Hal Jordan in Green Lantern Corps, another has now surfaced. Could James Marsden be about to make the leap from the X-Men to The DCEU?
It was earlier today that a possible shortlist of actors to play Hal Jordan in Green Lantern Corps, but We Got This Covered claims to have now learned of an additional name to be under consideration.
Well, after reaching out to a source about this possible casting news, they've been told that "Ever since Westworld Marsden has been pretty hot around here. They’ve discussed him for Hal as well." That makes sense seeing as the actor has made something of a comeback thanks to the HBO series, though it definitely sounds like Warner Bros. is seemingly just throwing around random names at this stage.
For that reason, it's best to also take this with a pinch of salt for the time being, though Marsden would certainly be a decent enough fit for a character like Hal. He has superhero experience after playing Cyclops in the X-Men movies and even showed up in the DC Universe as Lois Lane's boyfriend in Superman Returns. The actor has the right look too, so him being under consideration is good news.
