There has already been more drama surrounding the production of “The Green Hornet” than most Oscar nominated film. The project had problems getting off the ground, then there was controversy over the fact that funny man Seth Rogen was going to be in the lead role, then the film lost it’s first director (Stephen Chow) and later lost his as their Kato.
Since then a new director has been attached (Michel Gondry) and a new Kato has been found (Jay Chou) and all seemed set for a summer of 2010 release. But now… those plans have gone out the window.
“The Green Hornet” has been pushed back 5 months to December of 2010. Rogen offers up the following explanation:
“It gives more time for post, which would have been immensely rushed if we were to come out in the summer. It also affords us more time to promote the film, (now we can go to Comic-Con with more than a car!) and ultimately is a great vote of confidence from the studio.”
So considering Rogen’s explanation for the delay, are you happy about the delay of the film? Upset by it? Or, do you care either way?
