The Green Lantern is one of those movie we’re all looking forward to seeing. With Ryan Reynolds taking on the lead role as Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern and with a first class cast around him, how can the movie fail?!

The Green Lantern is based on the comic book of the same name as also stars Tim Robbins, Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Temuera Morrison, Jenna Craig and the Brit who currently can do no wrong, Mark Strong. It’s helmed by Martin Campbell and today, Warner Bros. have released a brand new full synopsis via Collider for the movie which is due with us in summer 2011 in both 2d and 3d.

Check out the new synopsis below. we’ll obviously keep you posted on this one as we get more.

In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.

Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.
