According to The Sydney Morning Herald, superhero pic "The Green Lantern" looks set to film in Australia. Question is, where in Australia?

NSW (Fox Studios) wants it, VIC (Docklands) wants it. While one industry source told the newspaper that an aggressive bid from Victoria seemed to have won the movie, another insisted that NSW was "up to our eyeballs in negotiations" and could still land it.

Meanwhile, Aaron Sims, the film's VFX main-man and artist, tells VFX World a little bit about what we can expect from the upcoming film adaptation of the DC Comics classic.

"We're starting from the ground up on this one, and we're trying to be as contemporary as possible," he says. Sims would not confirm which aliens he is designing, but those familiar with the comic book know that Earth's Green Lantern is just one of an intergalactic corps of heroes who each possess a power ring to fight evil on their home worlds and in outer space. "The suits for the aliens are all different," Sims says, "but they're all green. They're overwhelmingly green. Defining the uniform green -- the proper shade -- is part of the process."
