Cinematical is reporting that Common has been called in to audition for the role of the Green Lantern in the upcooming Justice League of America film slated for a 2010 release (boy is he staying busy!).
According to The Hollywood Reporter, director George Miller flew in from his home in Australia over the weekend to check out 35-40 young actors who were brought in to test for roles like Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, Green Lantern and the Martian Manhunter.
I think this would be a good move for Common. So far he has done a great job being casted in crime dramas Smoking Aces, American Gangster, The Night Watchman and Wanted, but it would be good to see him in a different type film such as Justice League of America. We’ll keep you posted on the updates to this story as they come in.
