Director: Michel Gondry

Cast: Seth Rogen, Jay Chou and Christoph Waltz

Directed by Michel Gondry, the movie The Green Hornet tells the story of Britt Reid (Seth Rogen), who is a playboy kind of man. He is the son of a rich newspaper publisher called James Reid (played by Tom Wilkinson). Following the sudden death of his dad, Britt becomes the new publisher of Los Angeles The Daily Sentinel.

Being the sole heir of his father, he meets an employee of his father called Kato (played by Jay Chou). Kato has something more in him than he apparently looks and he is a kung fu expert. After some time, he realizes that he and Kato are not utilizing their hidden abilities to its best. Then, the duo decides to fight against crime in the guise of the Green Hornet.

Britts new secretary Lenore Case (Cameron Diaz) helps him to discover that the citys criminal underworld is controlled by that Russian criminal Benjamin Chudnofsky (Christoph Waltz). On the other hand, Chudnofsky is stressed to think that he is losing his position as a crime boss. He unites all the crime gangs of the city and proposes to get hold of the Green Hornet, whom he believes to be the greatest threat of his plans.

Britt and Kato also become able to stop a robbery as the masked superhero The Green Hornet. Douglas Young has written the story of the movie, which is releasing tomorrow.
