Rising Sun Pictures, Australia’s specialist feature film visual effects production house, has been contracted by Warner Bros. to provide visual effects services for “Green Lantern.” Directed by Martin Campbell (“Casino Royale”) and starring Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively and Peter Sarsgaard, the film is scheduled for a summer 2011 release.

Working alongside major vendor Sony Pictures Imageworks, Rising Sun will deliver key CG sequences in the film. The production will benefit from a reduction in the 15% Post, Digital and Visual Effects Rebate threshold. Rising Sun’s recent expansion further increases the company’s ability to cater for the needs of multiple blockbuster productions, simultaneously delivering large volume, highly complex visual effects & character shots. Rising Sun is also working on “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II” and the Digital Intermediate for local film “Red Dog”.
