Nicolas Cage wants to get stung by THE GREEN HORNET also!

From ComingSoon.net:

"Columbia Pictures is in early talks with Nicolas Cage to play the gangster villain in The Green Hornet.

Cameron Diaz is negotiating to play a reporter and love interest in the Michel Gondry-directed film that stars Seth Rogen as the masked crime fighter.

The picture is moving full steam ahead for a fall start date, even as the studio looks to replace Stephen Chow, who was going to play sidekick Kato. Rogen and Evan Goldberg wrote the script and Neal Moritz is producing through his Original Films.

The Green Hornet is targeting a July 9, 2010."

Okay. I love Nicolas Cage movies despite what other people say about his movies. Ghost Rider wasn't as cool of a movie as I thought it would be but it's a superhero/Western.

UPDATE:

From ComingSoon.net:

"Nicolas Cage won't be playing the villain in Columbia Pictures' The Green Hornet, which director Michel Gondry has started filming in Los Angeles.

Sources... say that the studio is on the hunt for a new actor to play the villain in the comic book adaptation. No scenes with Cage were shot for the movie.

Columbia is planning a December 17, 2010 release for the pic, which stars Seth Rogen, Cameron Diaz, Jay Chou, Edward James Olmos, David Harbour and Tom Wilkinson."
