Wait, wait, wait...
The Green Hornet movie, written by and starring Seth Rogan, is now going to be directed by Michel Gondry?
Somebody's punking me, right?
You may remember The Green Hornet from the 1960s TV show - straighter than its campy cousin Batman and featuring Bruce Lee as loyal chauffeur and sidekick Kato.
But the property's been around since the 1930s, when it was a hit on the radio.
I'm a little worried that like fellow radio heroes The Shadow and Doc Savage, this update's going fail. But with a script by Rogan directed by Gondry it may be so gloriously strange that I have to see it anyway.
