George Miller to direct 'Green Lantern' movie?

IESB.net takes a look at the script for the 'Green Lantern' movie and offers up this rumor: George Miller is no longer attached to direct the 'Justice League' movie, but may take the reins of this one instead.
The site laid hands on a draft of the script by Greg Berlanti (who has been attached to direct), Marc Guggenheim and Michael Green and liked it quite a bit.
"From the first major beat of the story - that is sure to bring a tear - to the revelations at the end of the movie that easily set up prequels as well as sequels this script has it all. Also, unlike other recent superhero movies, this Green Lantern story has science fiction elements such as visiting other planets and major space battles," writes IESB chief Robert Sanchez.
He goes on to report that Warner Bros. loves the screenplay. However, it may be too ambitious a movie for Berlanti, with only one feature film credit on his directing resume.
This is where George Miller comes in. Supposedly the studio is quietly letting the 'Justice League' movie fade and Miller has already been released from that project. According to IESB, the studio may now be looking for him to come on board 'Green Lantern' and deliver the ambitious adventure move.
