"Casino Royale's" Martin Campbell in Talks to Direct "Green Lantern" 


The glow surrounding "Green Lantern" is shining brightly!

Right now, Warner Bros. is in talks with Martin Campbell ("Casino Royale") to direct their DC Comics property.

Campbell is hot, hot, hot right now, and just recently wrapped "Edge of Darkness" based on the 1995 BBC miniseries. Mel Gibson stars in the film version.

With the future of another Batman flick in question (director Chris Nolan is mulling this one), and Superman and the Justice League, and yes, Wonder Woman projects stalled right now, the hot DC properties with Warner Bros. are Green Lantern and Jonah Hex.

"Jonah Hex" will star Josh Brolin, and will be directed by Jimmy Heyward, the guy who gave us "Horton Hears a Who."

The production on "Jonah" will begin shooting April.
