Green Lantern is a 2011 movie starring Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan.
Synopsis for "Green Lantern (Movie)"
In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan. Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax... he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.

Notes
- The film is set after the comic series Green Lantern Movie Prequel and is followed by Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters.
- Stock footage of the film was used for the Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths", designating it as the Post-Crisis Earth-12.
- Green Lantern was meant to jump-start the DC Extended Universe, but it did so poorly commercially and critically that Warner Bros. decided to start over with Man of Steel two years later, not even acknowledging the film in their new canon.[3]
