Josh Brolin Confirms He Almost Played Green Lantern Hal Jordan; Teases DC Universe Future

Josh Brolin may be out as Hal Jordan, but is he out on the DC Universe reboot? The iconic actor speaks on passing up the role of Green Lantern.

While confirmation of a rumor is always fun, it’s good to hear that Josh Brolin seems to hold no ill will to Kyle Chandler for taking the Lanterns role in his stead. Giving the amount of stink Ryan Reynolds has put on the Green Lantern brand, particularly Hal Jordan, it’s understandable that any actor wouldn’t take the part. Luckily, it seems the failed offer hasn’t dissuaded him from joining the DC Universe down the line, giving a cryptic tease of a potential future with the burgeoning franchise.
