Jack Black was going to play Green Lantern, and ScreenCrush is here to bring you the full story. Robert Smigel (one of the greatest comedy writers of all time) was commissioned to write a superhero vehicle for Jack Black. Smigel wrote a raunchy comedy that would have been totally out of place with...well, any superhero movie that came before it. We break down the full story, why it never happened, and how the superhero landscape would have been completely different. Would this have led to a campy Batman movie?
