Several days ago, it was revealed that the comic book character Krona will be featured in the Green Lantern movie. According to DC comic canon, Krona's selfish actions are what caused the creation of the "multiverse;" or, parallel universes. Many fans began to wonder whether the inclusion of Krona into the film's story would lead to a similar explanation of DC's movie-verse; and thus, tie their superhero properties together.

Want to know more? Simply highlight the text below...

MAJOR SPOILER WARNING!



- Krona becomes the first "host" to Parallax, by way of the Yellow Power Battery. This takes place as a prologue of the film.

- Parallax doesn't just feed off of fear, it rips the souls out of it's victims; leaving dried "husks" of the corpses.

- Parallax/Krona attacks Abin Sur's ship, which causes him to crash land on Earth and die.

- While performing an autopsy on the corpse of Abin Sur, Hector Hammond becomes infected by a fragment of Parallax which causes him to gain exponential telepathic and telekinetic powers.

- Hammond attacks Hal Jordan and Carol Ferris (whom he harbors feelings towards) at the Ferris airfield hanger, a similar scene to the one in the Green Lantern Secret Origins comic; the difference being that Hammond wants Hal's Green Lantern ring.

- Hammond is ultimately killed by Parallax, who absorbs his soul in the manner mentioned above.

- Parallax fights Hal Jordan and Carol Ferris on Earth. The fight is unevenly matched until other members of the Green Lantern Corps arrive.

HOLY SHIT!
crimsoncrusader - 8/12/2010, 10:39 PM
OH SNAP!!!!
patriautism - 8/12/2010, 10:41 PM
HOLY SCHNIKES!!!
CPBuff22 - 8/12/2010, 10:44 PM
So they are keeping this earth based? Not liking that. Also not even close to GL true origin story. I'd have much preferred Sinestro as the villain. Well if this is what WB is putting on the Big Screen, I won't feel bad about boycotting it for them keeping Ryan Reynolds from doing Deadpool.
ecksmanfan - 8/12/2010, 10:45 PM
I just peed a little.
crimsoncrusader - 8/12/2010, 10:45 PM
So I guess the whole parallel universe theory is out the window?
peralta - 8/12/2010, 10:46 PM
Holy shit the part when it said that the other lanterns show up made my day
crimsoncrusader - 8/12/2010, 10:48 PM
CPBuff22@ Yea I'm in agreement with you when it comes to the fact that they are totally changing up the origin. I was actually hoping that they'd use Parallax maybe for a GL film down the road for when he takes over Hal's body/Kyle Rayner becoming the new GL but we'll see what happens.
ecksmanfan - 8/12/2010, 10:49 PM
Maybe I missed a memo here, but does that mean that Carol will have "powers"?
spider1489 - 8/12/2010, 10:54 PM
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
REDSTORM - 8/12/2010, 10:56 PM
WOW! THIS IS BETTER THAN DOUBLE RAINBOWS!

Thanks so much Poni!
JackJNapier - 8/12/2010, 10:58 PM
Erickz, just out of curiosity, do you read or have read Green Lanter? The origin isn't his birth lol, it is him becoming a Space Cop, emphasis on the Space. I don't have a porblem with the beginings of the story taking place on Earth, but we need a lot of OA and space.
TheUnknown - 8/12/2010, 11:01 PM
Cool.
Creature - 8/12/2010, 11:04 PM
Shit just got real.
cchriswake13 - 8/12/2010, 11:06 PM
WHERE'S THE GODDAMN SOURCE FOR THIS???

YOU ALWAYS MAKE SH*T UP EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE NO PROOF
ckal - 8/12/2010, 11:11 PM
If this is in fact how it goes, it looks like most of the action will be on earth. Doesn't mean that there won't be a lot of time spent in space.
Wadey09 - 8/12/2010, 11:11 PM
awesome find @Poni!!!!!
this film may just be DC's biggest film EVER!!!!!

as for those who worry that the film will be Earth based:
articles have already been posted on this site depicting the production design of Oa and the Guardians.
this will be an epic space opera probably on par with Star Wars. but yes there will be a major fraction of Earth footage seeing as how Hal Jordan is from EARTH and all.....
not to mention that the major characters already casted are humans so i'm expecting at least a third of the film to be set on Earth.
sweetre15 - 8/12/2010, 11:15 PM
@Wadey09: Thanks Wadey09 and exactly. Some should calm down for now.

**MAJOR SPOILERS ALERT!!!!**Be Careful**

WOO...Did not think about that possibility. My heart stopped for a bit there while reading about Parallax-Krona attacking Abin's ship. I'm currently imagining the epic space-chase scene, and the hurry to find Hal Jordan before Parallax arrives to terrorize earth.

This is a very clever way of 'adapting' a comic book to a movie. It's going to be very interesting if true. And to all you crybabies threatening to boycott GL because of the issue with Deadpool, keep dreaming. Green Lantern FOREVER!
Orehrepus - 8/13/2010, 12:18 AM
SHIIIIT! Great find, Poni! Where'd you get these things anyway?

And good job with the font color shit. Not that I care. I highlited it and read it anyway, as if there's even one who didn't read this. LOL!!!
MrSuperheromoviefan - 8/13/2010, 12:23 AM
I don't like the soul part.
Everything else sounds good.
killzonev2 - 8/13/2010, 12:40 AM
sounds like a solid plot line. at this point i could care less about deadpool cast some no name for all i care, im lining up for this. hopefully all 3 of the lantern movies do great, im pretty excited for them
Jimdlux - 8/13/2010, 12:40 AM
I don't buy it!
prototype87 - 8/13/2010, 12:49 AM
i did not read anything..heh hehh.. just wanted to drop by..
GreenLanternFan - 8/13/2010, 12:57 AM
"******* is ultimately killed by *******"? I don't know how I feel about that, but the rest of it sounds fantastic.
MightyThor1 - 8/13/2010, 12:59 AM
Thats gonna be amazing on screen in 3-d hella cgi!!!
davidcub - 8/13/2010, 1:37 AM

And then they go to Oa etc... for the next 2/3rds of the movie right? haha I'm with Wadey09 on this one.
JLU51306 - 8/13/2010, 2:30 AM
Although it says Abin Surs ship is attacked, I hope they answer the question of why he'd be flying it to begin with.

Other than that, Great find!
gandalf550 - 8/13/2010, 3:24 AM
Awesome!!! Can't wait for the film!!!
UrbanTheEmcee - 8/13/2010, 3:30 AM
@JLU51306 it's not a must that they tell why he's flying it. We didn't find out until Johns retconned the whole origin story with Atrocitus.
DetBullock - 8/13/2010, 3:37 AM
@Elijah Martin: technically we haven't found out till Alan Moore wrote about it something like twenty or thirty years ago...
MatchesMalone - 8/13/2010, 3:51 AM
I think this sounds great. Just from this, it sounds like the pacing of the film will be spot on.
TANKGIRL - 8/13/2010, 3:59 AM
hell yeah loved it
ClaireLannister2016 - 8/13/2010, 4:23 AM
Dear Poni,
oh behalf of the entire internet. I give you this:
Your awesome dude.
oh and great article.
Hawksblueyes - 8/13/2010, 5:06 AM
Awesome work Poni! This has me even more excited about this movie and I wasn't sure that could happen.
marvel72 - 8/13/2010, 5:09 AM
intresting stuff,not to worried about spoilers.

i would most lightly of forgot about most of this,that has just been mentioned.

i'm to hyped for thor & captain america.
Shaman - 8/13/2010, 5:15 AM
Damn i hope John Stewart has a bigger part in this!!! I really want him to get his ring by the end of it :))
Dynamo - 8/13/2010, 5:23 AM
Looks like the scripts changed significantly since the first draft. Glad to see there's some suprises left/
longbowhunter - 8/13/2010, 5:26 AM
Sounds good.
KUSlacker - 8/13/2010, 5:27 AM
wheeee friday the 13th just got much much better whooooooo hooooooooooo
dailycomicsfix - 8/13/2010, 5:47 AM
Snoogens!!
Shaman - 8/13/2010, 5:52 AM
NoPurposeNaji- Yeah... i guess that was a fail LOL But i really want to see John Stewart get his GL ring before the end of the film. I want him to play a bigger role than they hinted at. I don't want to see him for only 5 minutes and then have to wait for the sequel to see more of him. LOL Man, re-reading what i wrote... it was pretty damn funny LMAO :P
hush - 8/13/2010, 5:53 AM

Angelus - 8/13/2010, 6:03 AM
I have not read the spoiler! I refuse to read it! I understand its awesome, of course. So the awesomeness will destroy my brains and scatter my head when I watch one of DC's favorite sons come on the big screen next year!

BEWARE MY POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shaman - 8/13/2010, 6:03 AM
Quick, Josh!!! Turn your "hidden font color" to GREY!!! LOL :P

RedDevil - 8/13/2010, 6:05 AM
OK.............I'm convinced this movie will undoubtedly succeed. Watch out THOR! But I know THOR will be just as awesome as well!
alphamale80 - 8/13/2010, 6:14 AM
damn it the link wont work for me NOOOOOOOO!
Ranger14 - 8/13/2010, 6:18 AM
Where in the article does it say most of the film is going to be on earth?

Sinestro should not come into play as a villain until the end of the first film or the second film. I have no trouble with the way this film is going to go.

cchriswake13@ Most here know I am very respectful when I post. You have pushed that envelope for me. Your feeble attempts to discredit Pietro are getting tiring. It seems the only time you post is when he has news to share and you post the same drivel. STFU you little troll!! I suggest whenever you finish high school to take some classes on journalism and media. You will find that some sources are to be protected so that they remain inside sources. Every bit of information Pietro has given us on GL has been spot on and has been confirmed. If he were to reveal his source from inside the GL camp, that person would no longer be able to give him information. It also protects that source's job. It isn't difficult to understand if you have any brains in that little noggin of yours.
