Martin Campbell on "Daunting" 'Green Lantern' VFX

The question of why a Green Lantern movie might cost between $150 and $175 million - the number most commonly thrown around - could be answered pretty simply: Effects, and lots of them. Now director Martin Campbell is discussing the CGI buffet, in an Empire interview sourced by The Coventry Telegraph.

Ryan Reynolds is playing Hal Jordan/Green Lantern in the film, which was originally set to go into production in Australia, but while now shoot in and around New Orleans, one of the hottest and most surprisingly versatile filming locations in the US. That move might end up saving the production money, but Campbell assures us it's still going to be jam-packed with effects.

"It's daunting," the director says. "Just the process, something like 1,300 visual effects shots, it's mind-blowing, quite honestly."
