The Lost Years Of Merlin
Warner Bros. Still Planning GREEN LANTERN Sequel
While WB sounds hopeful, just because the studio says that they’re moving ahead with the sequel doesn’t guarantee that it’ll see the light of day. This report comes at a curious time, with Warner Bros. possibly hoping that trumpeting a sequel will increase box office returns (“Well since they’re making a sequel, I guess I’ll go see it now.”)
Whatever the studio’s intentions with regards to Green Lantern 2 I loved Green Lantern, it was a really great flick and I had so much fun. And while the performance was lower than expected, it’s not a flop and still going fairly strong. A sequel with better advertising (plus being out after the cartoon series) and a lower budget is guaranteed to make money. Plus they should begin to make a DC Movie-verse. Seriously.
This movie was based off a comic book but when the movie tries to pay homage to comic fanboys and critics arent satisfied..
I actually applaud GREEN LANTERN for taking a risk and making up this weird unique universe.
Skarsgaard’s performance was a bit cheesy but I thought it was entertaining..
They could have used his maniacal turn as Hector Hammond to build an on earth rival..
This was pure dumb fun just like THOR.. My bet is that Captain America will please all the doubters looking for more of a grounded story..
This isn’t happening – they will commission a script on the cheap on the off chance that it does massive box office in other countries. The first one was a disaster – nothing more to see here, move along. The hard core nerds who liked it because they like anything with some dude flying around in tights isn’t going to be enough to justify another trip to OA. If anything, it will (hopefully) stem the tide of moronic super hero movies glutting the theaters.Not that they’re the only arrogant, pompous studio, but Warner Bros. is really revealing just how conceited it is by not only saying they’re going through with a Green Lantern sequel, but also how they’re still going to proceed with plans for their trainwreck of a project “Akira.”
They come off as religious freaks, praying at the altar devoted to their own studio. Inflexibility and arrogance aren’t exactly wholesome traits. They need to learn the lessons of a gambler. Even they know it’s a good idea to fold from time to time.

Warner Bros. Conjures 'Merlin' Tentpole With Novice Screenwriting ...
It’s the screenwriting equivalent of pulling the sword out of the stone.
Ed Whitworth , a script reader for Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Prods., has seemingly come out of nowhere to land the plum gig to write The Lost Years of Merlin , Warner Bros.’ big-budget adaptation of the first book of the fantasy series by T.A. Barron .
Donald De Line ( Green Lantern ) is producing what is basically an origin story of the mythical wizard. The film will trace Merlin’s journey from being a boy washed on the shores of Wales with no memory and no home, to him becoming a young man learning to use his powers and ultimately defender of the natural world and eventual mentor to King Arthur.
The project previously had been at Paramount, where Simon Kinberg ( Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Sherlock Holmes ) was taking a crack at it. But the option ran out and Warners, looking for a suitable replacement for its billion-dollar Harry Potter franchise, picked it up with De Line attached.
The studio then set upon a quest for a scribe to tackle what it hopes will be a new spell-binding tentpole.
Whitworth had studied at Oxford and worked as a journalist at the Times of London before heading west and enrolling in UCLA’s screenwriting program. He worked as a reader for ICM and, for the past year, for Harpo, which afforded him time to write in his spare moments.
Although Whitworth found representation at management outfit Circle of Confusion, none of his spec scripts seemed to take. Still, he continued to write. “If it didn’t work out, I’d move on to the next one,” he tells THR/Heat Vision of his 10-year journey: “I would just try to persevere. It’s something I really wanted to do, even when it got hard.”
Last year, Whitworth wrote a spec titled Powell , a biopic about now-retired General Colin Powell that mixed fact and fiction to tell the behind-the-scene dealings leading up to Powell’s United Nations speech making the case for the war in Iraq.
The script made the rounds this spring, generating notice in the development community, and six weeks ago Whitworth signed with WME. That led to a series of general meet-and-greets with execs (“generals,” in the industry shorthand), including one with execs from Warners and De Line Productions.
