Green Lantern: Geoffrey Rush to voice Tomar-Re

So another high profile actor has been cast to voice a member of the Green Lantern Corp. This time in the form of Geoffrey Rush(pirates of the caribbean, the kings speech) as Tomar-Re.

In comics Tomar was a scientist on the planet Xudar before joining the Green Lantern Corps. He became a pivotal member of the Corps, training new members, like Arisia, and serving in the Honor Guard. He investigated reports of abuses of power by Sinestro on Korugar. He was close friends with Abin Sur, Green Lantern of neighboring sector 2814. He was also the first Lantern to meet Sur's replacement, Hal Jordan, and the two got along equally well. In the Post-Crisis timeline, that friendship is deepened further in that the rookie Jordan met him soon after being recruited. Jordan was brought to him by his power ring to help with his difficulties with handling the weapon and Tomar-Re not only guided the Terran to GLC headquarters for the optional training program, but also provided valuable emotional support during this difficult time.

There are other Lanterns supposedly in the movie to be cast in G'Hu, Mogo, Stel, Bzzd, Rot Lop Phan, and more.
