While wife Scarlett Johansson heats up screens in the next Iron Man installment, Ryan Reynolds will be stepping into the prized role of the Green Lantern. The actor was handpicked for the coveted spot by Warner Bros. and director Martin Campbell.

Beating out The Hangover star Bradley Cooper and brooding Jared Leto, Reynolds will begin production in January.
