Green Hornet Is On The Making

The movie is directed by Stephen Chow and planned to be released on 2010. Still long waiting.

Seth Rogen, one of the screen writers told scifi.com:

Rogen promised that the movie, based on the '30s radio serial and subsequent TV series, will be packed with action. But fans of Rogen's Judd Apatow comedies, such as Knocked Up, may be in for a rude awakening if they expect the same brand of lewd humor in The Green Hornet.

"We have not hit many situations where you're like, you know, 'What would make this scene better?' If Kato said c--ksucker? That hasn't come up many times," Rogen joked.

Still, many fans may be left scratching their heads at the notion that the guys who did Superbad are making a Green Hornet movie. Rogen offered this explanation: "To us, it was just this funny notion that, when you say Green Hornet to someone, the first thing they say is, 'Hey, Bruce Lee played Kato in that show.' We really wanted to make this hero-sidekick movie. ... For years we'd really been trying to write a movie that was kind of about a hero and his sidekick. When we heard the Green Hornet movie was up for grabs, we thought that could be the perfect way to do this story, because he is the only hero whose sidekick is more known than he is. We thought it would be a good way to tell this relationship story and just do a big crazy action movie."

To you who might not know about this movie, I presented the snapshot from its 1960's opening credits:
