Fillion will be joining the Green Lantern Corps as Guy Gardner in James Gunn’s “Superman.” Fans are already speculating what Fillion’s take on the character will be like in the hope that it will lift the curse of the GLC previously established thanks to Ryan Reynolds’ take on the other notable member of the Corps, Hal Jordan (who Fillion also played in animated form), in the 2011 film, “Green Lantern.” Universally loathed and publicly dragged through the dirt by Reynolds himself, the Martin Campbell-directed film is deemed one of the worst comic book movies ever made, with even Campbell confessing it might’ve worked better had Reynolds written the film himself. All we can do now is hope that Fillion’s bonkers haircut as the most hot-headed member of the GLC brings some respect back to the peacekeeping force, and his former sitcom co-star’s record can be erased in the process.
