Green Hornet has had one of the more tempestuous pre-production processes. At least public processes – plenty of pictures go through pre-production shake-ups, but out of the prying eyes of the people.
The latest change-up for the film – its release date. Sony has moved the picture out of the summer slot and pushed it back until December 2010. Lest you think this spells disaster (and there have been a lot of people peddling the ‘Green Hornet is in trouble and will be shitcanned’ pitch over the previous few months), Seth Rogen assures you all is peachy. Perfect, possibly. Via HitFix:
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.
Well, if Rogen’s pleased, we probably should be as well.
