Synopsis
Bringing the enduringly popular superhero to the big screen for the
first time, GREEN LANTERN stars Ryan Reynolds (X-MEN ORIGINS:
WOLVERINE) in the title role, under the direction of Martin Campbell
(CASINO ROYALE).
In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful
force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice,
they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors
sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring
that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax
threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their
fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit,
the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.
Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have
little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite
powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to
the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has
one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the
encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris
(Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find
the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the
key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green
Lantern of all.
