Comment: The |notability guideline for future films recommends that a stand-alone article for a film should not be created until a project enters production. The reasons are very good, practical ones, as many issues can interfere with a project well ahead of its intended filming date. Lots are announced and then fail to materialise, so directed use of the guideline is the best way of ensuring that Wikipedia doesn't get clogged with stubby articles about films which were never made and thus would ultimately fail the |general notability guideline; all that would remain is an article based on a OT#NEWS|short burst of news stories that appeared when it was announced. It should also never be assumed that because a film is likely to be reasonably high-profile, with major stars attached, that it will be immune to the usual pitfalls which can affect these productions, especially in the current climate. Projects can be put on hold at the last minute while a director tackles another film (e.g. Spielberg's ''Lincoln (film)|Lincoln''). And many productions were postponed, even shelved indefinitely, because of the 2007-2008 Writers Guild of America strike (e.g. ''Pinkville'' and ''Justice League (film)|Justice League''). Projects unrelated to the strikes, but which are still in development hell, include the aforementioned ''Jurassic Park IV'' (many would consider this a no-brainer for a speedy greenlight; indeed, it was actually supposed to be ''released'' in 2005), and ''White Jazz (film)|White Jazz''. ''State of Play (film)|State of Play'', which had Brad Pitt and Edward Norton mere weeks away from filming in November 2007, was a hair's breadth away from being abandoned after Pitt jumped ship. ''Green Lantern'' itself has gone through multiple incarnations, with several directors attached, during its protracted development. In accordance with the guideline, the article can be recreated without prejudice if and when principal photography is finally confirmed to have begun. For now, the best place for the ''Green Lantern'' film adaptation information is in the wider context of the parent article, where it will best serve the general reader
