Columbia Pictures has launched their official site for
The Green Hornet, complete with a snazzy title treatment that touts star Seth Rogen's involvement and the planned June 25, 2010 release date.
The
Knocked Up funnyman will star and write the script for the action-packed adaptation based on
The Green Hornet radio program, TV show and comic adventures that have remained popular since the character's creation in the 1930s.
The story centers on newspaper publisher Britt Reid who fights crime as the masked adventurer alongside his ass-whoopin' sidekick Kato (famously played on the '60s TV series by Bruce Lee).
Rogen recently said that the movie is expected to have a PG-13 rating. "That's an action movie, you can do anything violence-wise," he said.
And Rogen also says that he'd love to have
Kung Fu Hustle actor Stephen Chow as Kato.
