New Green Lantern Trailer Online
[yahoo 25116657]
Warner Bros. released another trailer for Green Lantern starring Ryan Reynolds. In it, we get a better feel of the threat and more of an understanding of some of the characters. It includes a glimpse into Hal Jordan’s training as a Green Lantern.

Green Lantern opens in theaters June 17, 2011.
