The green fever is spreading! One of the hottest movies of the summer, The Green Lantern, has invaded Frankel’s Costumes and we couldn’t be more excited! Director Martin Campbell, who brought us blockbusters such as the Zorro films and the 007 films Casino Royale and Golden Eye, brings DC Comics The Green Lantern to life. The film is loaded with intense special effects, catchy one liners, and our favorite part, the awesome costumes!
The extremely talented Ryan Reynolds brings to life Hal Jordan, a test pilot who has been chosen by the ring as the first human of the Green Lantern Corps. As the Green Lantern, his costume is visually stunning and extremely memorable. Of course, CGI helps to add special effects to the costume. Rubie’s Costumes has taken the style of the Green Lantern suit and designed a costume that everyone can wear!
We have a couple of different designs to suit any taste. The first design, The Green Lantern-Deluxe, is more in line with the actual comic book character. The costume is a little less flashy and is more for those who having been following the Green Lantern their whole lives. The costume includes a green and black jumpsuit with attached boot covers as well as the infamous green mask. If classic style is what you want, than this costume is for you! The other design, The Hal Jordan/Green Lantern DLX, comes straight from the movie. Although the costume doesn’t actually light up, Rubie’s has done an excellent job making a replica that is not only recognizable, but very close to what the characters in the movie actually wore. The costume has rich green jumpsuit that is comfortable enough to fight crime day and night. If you are worried your that you don’t have the six pack of Hal Jordan, have no fear! This costume is made to look like the muscles are already there. Unlike many super hero costumes, the Green Lantern Deluxe is not skin tight, so you won’t have to fret about embarrassing mishaps. The costume also comes in adult standard size, as well as adult plus size. The costume, of course, includes the green mask with an elastic band to secure it in place as well as the ring.
Unfortunately, the ring included with the costume doesn’t light up. If you want to look authentic though, Rubie’s also designed a light up version of the ring for those who really want to go all out. The ring is a great way to complete your Green Lantern look!
