It looks like that trend may end next summer with the release of Green Lantern.  Based on the much-loved DC Comics series, this latest superhero movie has aliens, spaceships, and a ring that creates objects out of light.  But unlike some more terrestrial heroes, the cosmic explorations of the Green Lantern have always been a major part of the character’s appeal.
Another difference is Green Lantern’s costume. Rather than the spandex bodysuits or leathery armor of most movie superheroes, Reynolds was filmed wearing a motion capture suit (much like the actors in Avatar), and his costume is entirely created with digital effects. It gives him a sleek, glowing look that could not be achieved by traditional means. Green Lantern arrives in theaters on June 17, next year.
