AceShowbiz - Tyrese Gibson hints at a possible role in the upcoming Green Lantern reboot. The "Fast and Furious" actor reveals in an interview with Entertainment Tonight that he had a meeting with Warner Brothers for a role in the superhero movie.
"There are certain things I can't speak on," Tyrese says. "But I will say, however this works out, it's definitely the fans' fault. I was at home minding my own business and fans start creating these fan-made videos of me as Green Lantern and I looked into it. I've been a fan of the Green Lantern. I took the oath, and I had a meeting at Warner Bros. and certain things were said and talked about. We'll just see what happens."
He adds, "Listen, these muscles are here and they're ready to be used. There are are lot of people, domestically and internationally, who's got love with your boy. I'm coming into this thing with some fans and some box office receipts behind my name and I say that proudly and humbly. I just think I deserve a shot at suiting up and becoming the Green Lantern."
