Will ‘Green Hornet’ trailer create a buzz?

[additional-authors]
June 22, 2010

The “Green Hornet” trailer is up today and, despite my initial reservations with Seth Rogan in the title role, the film looks fun—but more along Judd Apatow lines. Michel Gondry will have to work hard to differentiate “Green Hornet” from “Batman”—having pulled out the old Millionaire-playboy-turned-crimefighter saw (with a dead parent to boot)—or the humor-laced “Iron Man,” but as long as the film can deliver on both action and comedy, it’ll give fanboys something to watch between “Tron Legacy” and “Thor”/“Green Lantern.”
