    Warners greenlights 'Akira'; Hedlund front-runner
    http://www.variety.com/article/V…

    Variety reports that Warner Bros. green-lit the film. With that, everything becomes solid; including the casting. "Both Warners and Collett-Sera have been keen on [Garrett Hedlund to star], but had to wait for a greenlight to make their move," they write. So, just think on this for a moment. Hedlund, who played Sam Flynn in "Tron Legacy" as Kaneda ... er, "Kendall." I guess that means we can expect Channing Tatum to show up as Tetsuo -- I mean "Tommy."
