Push On Green Hornet! Controversy sells!
Seth Rogen and Anna Faris at South by Southwest
“”We have no 100% official Kato at this point.”said a svelte Seth Rogen at the SXSW film festival in Austin , Texas this weekend in regards to the “The Green Hornet” film he will star in eventually The geekosphere is going batshit crazy over this news but I can not turn my back on a movie to be helmed by the great Michel Gondry and starring Seth Rogen. Casting, schmasting it will be the most entertaining flick to arrive in the summer of 20- -?
They should start collecting video for archival footage for the DVD extras, because the “will they? won’t they?” media coverage is going to guarantee a big opening weekend and an even bigger cult following. A fool is the geek who dare question the power of controversy, where, like the world of masturbation, a little goes a long way.

Just get Ernie Reyes Jr.(Keno from TMNT2/Surf ninjas) and be done with it. I know he needs a job.
Jason Scott Lee for Kato. I’m just saying. Or maybe I’m imagining this film as the Paul Walker starring vehicle that this film would have been had Seth Rogen not decided to throw his hat in.
