Sony has released a new trailer for THE GREEN HORNET, which hits this January. The first trailer (and the movie in general) met with great criticism from fans of the iconic characters, and while this new trailer isn’t radically different, it did give me a chuckle or two. While I’m perfectly fine with Jay Chou playing Kato, I just can’t wrap my head around the idea of Seth Rogen as Britt Reid. The pulp hero was always meant to be serious, and Rogen is (let’s face it) just not that good at playing it serious. That said, I’m willing to give this one a chance, seeing as how Michel Gondry is directing, and with Christoph Waltz (INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS) as the bad guy, and a supporting cast that includes Cameron Diaz, Edward James Olmos (BATTLESTAR GALACTICA), Tom Wilkinson, and Edward Furlong… this may at the very least be a fun time at the movies. Check out the new trailer below, and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
