I gotta say Strong is an excellent at creating villains. I didn't even realize it was him in Body of Lies till after I watched it. I thought it was some middle eastern actor
I don't get why studios don't release screen tests...they would probably be the best way to create excitement
DC Comics writer Geoff Johns talks about seeing Mark Strong’s screen test as Sinestro in Green Lantern: Finally, the big one. Mark Strong. Sinestro. I just returned from New Orleans, where GREEN LANTERN is deep in production set for release in June 2011. GREEN LANTERN has an unreal crew and cast. Grant Major – the Production Designer on LORD OF THE RINGS. Martin Campbell – the director of CASINO ROYALE. And Mark Strong from SHERLOCK HOLMES and KICK-ASS as Sinestro. And while I was there, there was a test on Sinestro. How he looks. How he moves. An amazing test. Unfortunately, that test is top secret. I can say with confidence, however, if you like Sinestro you’re going to love Mark Strong as Sinestro. Powerful, regal, intimidating. Mark clearly has done his research and embraced every aspect of what makes Sinestro one of the greatest, most complex characters within the vast, epic universe of the Green Lantern Corps. I think you’ll be as psyched as I am when you finally see him.
