Rumor: I didn't hear this directly, but it's floating around behind the scenes in the industry: @TheRock is up for JoHn Stewart. Shrugs.

Later, Georgiu clarified that the information is a rumor heard “… through the industry grapevine,” but is hardly confirmed. He acknowledged that the assertion is currently nebulous, but that also that the rumblings were interesting enough that he, “… thought if [he] put it out there, people would look into it.”
The rumor has been given some strength by a Tweet exchange dusted off by Comic Book Movie, in which Johnson seemed to hint at being in talks for the role of Green Lantern. Though it dates from April of 2013, scuttlebutt has apparently put Johnson in contact with DC Comics regarding an eventual film role.
Given even the initial source’s acknowledgement of this rumor’s tenuousness, it should be taken only after overturning an entire salt shaker. Nonetheless, it’s an interesting proposition that merits a bit of pondering.

Now, you’re asking, "The Rock’s going to play the host of The Daily Show?" Not exactly. Stewart was a replacement Green Lantern for Hal Jordan. He was an architect, and a U.S. Marine veteran. He filled in for Jordan when Hal couldn’t wear the ring. He fought along side the Justice League on multiple missions. The character has been featured in numerous Green Lantern stories over the years, and probably needs to be used as a palette cleanser after Hollywood’s last foray into Green Lantern land.

Just call this movie the Justice League already.

Hal Jordan needs to be fixed before The Lanterns start popping up.

How about the rock as the Martian.
