Hector Hammond Revealed and More GL Movie News

Today a British website leaked a behind the scenes shot snapped of Peter Sarsgaard in Hector Hammond makeup, and boy does he look creepy..er, great!  I don't think Sarsgaard is in costume yet, so I'm guessing he's making his way from the makeup trailer to costuming.

I've done some photoshop work to show a blowup of Hector's head and it looks like he does indeed have a mustache although it is a little hard to see.  There's also no telling if this is the final evolution of Hammond or merely a stage in the growth of his head.

Another Tongue, a voice over agency that Mark Strong uses, reported that Strong has taken a break from his John Carter project to fly to New Orleans for makeup testing.  According to ComicBookMovie Stong's Sinestro will sport special contact lenses and a mustache.  Sinestro will maintain a British accent since it "suits his character" and his costume, like Hal's, will be CGI.

ComicBookMovie also got a major scoop with pictures of Martin Jordan's jet of doom.  The plane is an experimental one of course and it's the destruction of the jet and the elder Jordan's death that so clearly defines Hal Jordan's character.

The picture at right is a composite of several photos that the site posted - I've just taken detail from the closeups and overlayed them here to keep the number of photos down to a minimum.

The jet was taken out of this hangar and used for some filming of some exterior shots.  Continuing their awesome string of exclusive reports from New Orleans, ComicBookMovie also posted that the Lakefront Airport was being used as Ferris Aircraft. A new front was built over the airports terminal to give Ferris it's own unique look.

Geoff Johns has said that he's seen footage from the Abin Sur death scene and that it looks incredible.  The rumors are circulating with an ever increasing sense of reliability that we will be seeing a teaser for the movie at Comic Con this summer and that this particular footage will be used for the teaser.  Whether this is a full-on teaser trailer or just footage they are going to show is unknown at this point, but hopefully it will be confirmed before July gets here.

Next summer's film calendar looks to be a very crowded one at this point, with some more films announced that will be competing with the Green Lantern film for box office receipts.  In addition to Thor, Captain America, and Xmen: First Class as direct superhero film competition, the top secret "Super 8" project by partners J.J. Abrams and Steven Speilberg will released next summer, as will the next Transformers film.  Now sprinkle the next Pirate of the Caribbean, the last Harry Potter film and a Kung Fu Panda sequel and you get an idea of kind of crazy film calendar there will be next summer.  The winners and losers are sure to be separated by the jobs that each studio's marketing department does for sure.
