Check out the first trailer for “The Green Hornet” which was released online today.

“The Green Hornet” will star Seth Rogen as Brit Reid, a newspaper publisher who assumes the role of a unconventional action hero. The film is directed by Michel Gondry and is scheduled to be released on January 14 of next year in 2D/3D.

Synopsis: By day, Britt Reid (Seth Rogen) is a millionaire publisher and popular media figure, but by night, Reid assumes the identity of fearless crime fighter The Green Hornet and teams with his trusted sidekick, Kato (played by Asian pop star-turned-actor/director Jay Chou), to keep the streets safe for average citizens. Producer Neal H. Moritz spearheads this big-screen adaptation of the popular radio serial, comic book, film, and television series originated by Lone Ranger creators Fran Striker and George W. Trendle. Rogen and frequent writing partner Evan Goldberg provide the screenplay, with visionary Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) handling directing duties. Breakout Inglourious Basterds star Christoph Waltz portrays the villain, Chudnofsky. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

  1. Alex at 12:45am 25th June 2010 WOW... this looks HORRIBLE! Seth Rogen playing — yet again! — a drunk, slacker, slob... but THIS time, he's a superhero! Yawn... Even worse, he's playing a spoof-version of a superhero well-known to a couple of generations as a straight arrow and made famous by having Bruce Lee play his sidekick Kato back in the 60s! Good luck topping that with fart and pot jokes! Considering that films show many of the best parts in the trailers to excite audiences and this trailer HAD no "best parts," just typical Rogen schtick, PLUS the fact that it's coming out in January (the Hollywood "Dead Zone") AND it's in 3-D (!!!????!!!), Rogen's Green Hornet is a guaranteed BOMB a full six months before it even hits the theatres! Thanks for warning us so soon, Seth! :P
