Ranking Green Lantern Actor Shortlist From Worst To Best

Bradley Cooper actually auditioned for Hal Jordan in the 2011 Green Lantern movie, so there's definitely a history here, but at the same time Cooper probably knows better than anyone how barely he dodged a bullet the first time.

There's no doubting he'd be a good fit for the part, though: handsome, witty and convincing as an a**hole.

How Likely Is It?: The first major hurdle here is whether Marvel Studios will allow Cooper to play Rocket Raccoon in the MCU while also taking a live-action part in the DCEU.

It shouldn't be a problem in theory, given that Cooper probably records his Rocket lines over a weekend, but never under-estimate pettiness in Hollywood.

Ultimately, though, his career's doing plenty good without something like this, so he doesn't need to take the risk, but it's certainly not impossible. 5/10
