There’s been a lot of speculation about whether or not Seth Rogen can pull off the coveted role of The Green Hornet in the big screen adaptation.

This will be the last year Seth Rogen comes to Comic-Con as the Green Hornet. We’re sure you have your own opinions about the latest superhero and who’s playing him, but while many of the panels we’re covering at the event don’t really belong at a comic book convention, The Green Hornet sure does, so let’s give ‘em some credit for that. We’ve got Rogen and Christoph Waltz, director Michel Gondry, writer Evan Goldberg and producer Neal Moritz in the house. Here we go…
5:32 PM: Seth Rogen has just taken the stage and he still looks skinny. He just made a crack about Ryan Reynolds. He’s tired of people getting them confused.
5:36 PM: They just showed a long trailer with some new footage. It had a darker tone. There was still comedy but Christoph Waltz’s character is really bad ass. He’s scares me.

As promised, the first trailer for Michel Gondry’s The Green Hornet has finally arrived! It was originally scheduled to premiere on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” but I guess Yahoo Movies said screw that and decided to debut it instead. Either way, its time to see if months of reshoots and recasts were a good or a bad sign of things to come. Check out the trailer and tell us what you think…
Update: The theatrical trailer is now online. Watch it now!
Entertainment Tonight has released a sneak peek at the teaser trailer for Michel Gondry’s The Green Hornet.

It was previously announced that Columbia Pictures would release the first teaser trailer for Michel Gondry’s The Green Hornet during an episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on June 21st.

The cast for DreamWorks’ sequel Kung Fu Panda: The Kaboom of Doom continues to grow as three new actors have joined film. This past weekend we learned that Gary Oldman signed on to play Lord Shen (a peacock), and today it’s been announced that Michelle Yeoh, Victor Garber, and Jean Claude-Van Damme will join him!
Summit Entertainment continues to branch out into other genre’s of film by acquiring the Seth Rogen produced comedy, formally titled, I’m With Cancer. The film stars James McAvoy as the lead with Rogen on board in a supporting role. They’ll be joined by two actresses from the Twilight camp (conveniently) Anna Kendrick and Bryce Dallas Howard.
Finally a clear photo of Seth Rogen in character from The Green Hornet has popped up online. We’ve already seen the actor in costume as his alter ego Britt Reid, but we’ve been yearning for something more. Over at SplashNews, they’ve posted a couple of behind the scenes photos that feature both Rogen and Jay Chou as his sidekick, Kato.
Take a look at the Hornet in action…
