The Flash and Green Lantern 2 scripts to be ready for Christmas
Development on The Flash has been moving along rather nice and quick over the past few months. Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, and Michael Green were attached to pen the script for both The Flash and Green Lantern 2 back in June, and things have been looking good so far. So good that we can expect to see a completed script for both films just in time for the holidays.
An inside source tells Deadline Hollywood that a draft for The Flash is to be handed in sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas. There’s no word on the who’s directing, but it most likely won’t be Berlanti sitting in the chair. Berlanti just came off of Life As We Know It, but doesn’t want to get into a big-budget film just yet. “He won’t want to direct it because he kinda wants to do something in between size-wise first before attempting something that large,” according to the source. However, that could all change “if Warner Bros does like the script and wants him to direct it… But that’s a lot of ifs,” the source claimed.
As for Green Lantern 2, Guggenheim, Berlanti, and Green are working on that as well, and can expect it around Christmas.  ”Also, the three of them are working on the treatment for the sequel to the Green Lantern at the same time. All of which will be in by Christmas,” the source says. It seemed odd that WB would be getting ahead of themselves by working on a Green Lantern sequel, but word on Martin Campbell’s film is that it’s “jaw-dropping.” There’s no idea on where the story for either film will go, but Berlanti recently mentioned he wants to make the tone of The Flash somewhere between Green Lantern and The Dark Knight (here). Geoff Johns recently announced that two films will be released a year (here), so you can possibly expect both in 2013.
