Green Lantern game to accompany movie?

Video games accompanying superhero movies are usually a letdown compared to the movie itself. With the 2011 release of Warner Brothers’ The Green Lantern, you can bet you’ll see a video game based on the movie.

Venture Beat is reporting that “multiple sources close to the project who asked not to be mentioned by name,” claimed a game concept for Green Lantern has been in consideration for more than a year, but development for the game has recently been jump started. For its part, Warner Brothers hasn’t confirmed the game, but it shouldn’t come as a surprise if we hear a more official announcement about the title.

The game is reportedly in development by Warner Brothers and Double Helix for the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360. Double Helix is responsible for the forthcoming G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra.

The Green Lantern movie is set for release on June 17, 2011 and will star Ryan Reynolds.
