Green Hornet

I wonder what happened to the Green Hornet remake. Years ago, it was rumored, but seemed like a done deal that Jet Li was going to play Kato. It was perfect because he's probably the only actor right now that could step into Bruce Lee's shoes. Then I just saw the trailer for this movie... no Jet Li! They also turned it into a comedy. Kato is played by Jay Chou (Initial D) and Green Hornet by Seth Rogen (Superbad, Knocked Up and 40-year Old Virgin). Jay Chou was great in Initial D, but he doesn't know enough martial arts to play Kato. And Seth Rogen has had all comedy roles.


I'm sure the movie will be funny and entertaining, but I'll pass on it. I would rather see Green Hornet as a serious action movie with cool stunts and fight scenes.
