Well, the character was loosly based on Chuck Yeager, the most famous test pilot - especially at the time. Yeager was 24 when he started flying test missions.
Also, the fact is, they want to cast someone who will still be young-looking for seques. By the third movie (in theory), you'd be looking 9 years or so down the road. That'd put guys like Nathan pushin 50.
They've been screen testing guys in their late 20's/early 30's like Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper and Brian Austin Greene.

It may be a mute point anyway. If Nathan has to be in LA to work on Castle, and production for GL is suppose to start in September in Oz......I don't see how it can be possible. And doesn't he need time to get all fit & muscular like many of leads who are sign on to play the big hero types in these big action flicks?
Too bad because I would rather see Nathan as Hal Jordon then Rick Castle. Nathan plays the action hero well.
Sounds like the studio is serioulsy considering Cooper anyway.

Well, yeah, it's a moot point, because he wasn't ever really considered. It's all just wishful thinking from fans. They've been looking at younger guys from the start.

If not Hal Jordan himself, I'm wondering if they are looking at him for another role?
My daughter keeps saying that Nathan would make a great Captain America (or North America, considering that he's Canadian).

Wrong company. Capt. America is Marvel, not DC.
And he's too old for that role, too.
