VIDEO: Green Hornet’s Black Beauty Headed To Silver Screen

Posted by Richard Robello on July 23, 2009

Preview night at the San Diego Comic Con was kicked off with the unveiling of the Green Hornet’s “Black Beauty” tonight. Star and co-writer Seth Rogen, his writing partner Evan Goldberg and director Michel Gondry decided to stick with a Chrysler Imperial to play the roll of the masked crusader’s gadget filled car.

“Sometimes you have to go a long way to get back to where you started,” Rogen told MTV News. “We went to a lot of major auto manufacturers who pitched different designs and different futuristic takes on it. To us, it was important that it seem like a guy could actually build this car, that it was something you could use on the streets. We ended up falling back on the original ‘66 Chrysler Imperial.”

“The Green Hornet” is one of the comics I was hoping they would turn into a movie, so I hope it turns out to be good. Here is the first trailer of the 2010 film, unfortunately there is no sound…so enjoy the visuals!
