Oct 27 2009'Green Hornet' Cast Gets Larger, Stranger
Seth Rogen as the dapper, heroic Green Hornet still too normal casting for you? Then how about we add aging Canadian rock band Anvil (of Story of Anvil fame) and Edward Furlong (of being leader of the anti-Terminator resistance in the future fame) for some reason? Movieweb spoke to writer/producer/actor Rogen about his Green Hornet adaptation, and the actor confirmed those are, in fact, people he has allowed in the film:
MW: I've heard rumors that Edward Furlong might be in the movie?Seth Rogen: Edward Furlong is in the movie, yes.
MW: And what role is he playing?
Seth Rogen: That I can't reveal.
MW: What is the reasoning behind Anvil appearing in the film, and how did that happen?
Seth Rogen: Well, as a Canadian hard rock fan I actually have known about Anvil for many, many years. And we needed a band for a scene in the movie and Gondry was like, "How about Anvil?" We asked them and they said yes.
Man, I wish he'd gone into why Furlong was in the film instead of why Anvil is involved. I can figure out why you put Anvil in a film: they're a band, and you need a band. I get that. But Furlong... that's a mystery. That's what I want to hear. I don't know why you put Edward Furlong in a film. What's his type? More overweight Macaulay Culkin?

Anvil? Does that mean Spinal Tap wasn't available?

I kind of like Edward Furlong. He was great as John Connor, which is more than I can say for Nick Stahl or Batman. Granted, he was taking orders from James Cameron at the time, but stil.
