Last week there was news that Seth Rogen’s pet project, “The Green Hornet”, had been kicked to the ditch. Rogen struck back with claims that the movie was still on track and had the full support of its studio:
Rogen is adamant the project is still going ahead, confirming the adaptation of the Bruce Lee-starring TV series should hit theatres by 2010.
He writes in an email to website HitFix.com: “The Green Hornet has many people working for it, including production designers, costume designers and many conceptual artists, office staff, etc.
“(The studio heads) have every intention on making it, and assuming we’re able to hire a new director in the upcoming weeks, which seems like a distinct possibility, it should still hit the release date.”
Yikes. No director. No sidekick actor. Sounds like things are going great. Sorry, Rogen, but as much as I’d usually be all for any of your projects, “The Green Hornet” sounds incredibly dull.
