Before he became a Deadpool icon, Ryan Reynolds ventured into a superhero blockbuster over 10 years ago. Compared to the brutal anti-hero, however, the 2011 DC film Green Lantern was a disaster.
On Friday, June 30, 2023, the blockbuster that Reynolds hates will be shown at 8:15 p.m. on RTL ZWEI. Today he only serves the star as a gag target.
That’s how derogatory Ryan Reynolds commented on Green Lantern after the fact
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly in 2016, the actor discussed why Deadpool worked compared to Green Lantern:
It’s easy: [Der Film] Deadpool always knew what he was. Nobody at Green Lantern ever figured that out, I guess. He was also the victim of a Hollywood scheme in which Posters and theatrical release are more important than the script.
With a budget of around $200 million, Green Lantern grossed just under $220 million worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo. This means that the DC film, which also received quite negative reviews, is considered an absolute flop.
How much Reynolds the film still despised todayshows, for example, the end credits scene from Deadpool 2. In it, the main character travels back in time to shoot Ryan Reynolds before his Green Lantern appearance.
What’s next for Ryan Reynolds’ successful superhero career?
The star hardly needs to think about Green Lantern these days. His Deadpool franchise is a huge success. Part 3, in which Hugh Jackman returns as Wolverine, is due out on us on May 1, 2024 come to the cinema.
