I actually really like this guy for Green Lantern. I always thought Gosling was gonna be a weird Lantern if it came to pass and this makes far more sense. Cooper has tons of charisma and he has enough "everyman" charm at this point to do it justice. "The Hangover" looks spectacular and if he gets his name out there with that and Green Lantern this could be his break.

Sounds interesting. But the franchise that DC really needs to get a move on is Wonder Woman.

Actor Brian Austin Green expressed interest in a recent interview, and he has, in his post-90210 career, and success in genre work such as Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles, shown an aptitude and physicality for the role of Hal Jordan, the Silver Age Green Lantern and founding member of the Justice League of America.

What about Chris Pine? Cooper's okay…but I was so set on Chris Pine, especially if Star Trek does well this weekend, which I'm sure it will.

He is definetly Green Lantern. Gosling isn't big enough body-wise. Cooper needs a blockbuster to get his name out there even more. I really hope he's the guy, he has the look for it big time.

I thought WB would go for a bigger name like Gosling because many people blamed the weak star power of the Watchmen actors as one of the reasons that movie didn't generate much interest among non-comic book circles. If this rumor proves to be true, they should be hoping that Cooper makes a big mark with 'The Hangover'.

this guy can pull it off, but ryan gosling would have been a better choice.
