Part of the corps
Actors Temuera Morrison and Taika Waititi both star in the Martin Campbell-directed 3D film Green Lantern which began production in New Orleans in mid-March. Morrison is playing Abin Sur – a member of the interplanetary police force known as the Green Lantern Corps – who is instrumental in Hal Jordan becoming the superhero, while Waititi plays the best friend of Jordan, the test pilot who comes to wear the super-powered ring of the Corps. The movie is set for a June 17, 2011 release. Morrison, repped by Abrams Artists, recently wrapped the New Zealand-made thriller Tracker with Ray Winstone.
