Comic-Con 2009 is in full tilt today here in sunny San Diego; Johnny Depp has already caused the place to explode, and that was before the Twilight: New Moon panel. Last night — a.k.a. "Preview Night" — was a different story: After the convention center had cleared out, Seth Rogen and director Michel Gondry had the place to themselves to unveil a first look at the car of the eponymous hero in their upcoming superhero flick The Green Hornet, which starts shooting late this summer. With my trusty Flipcam, I talked to both gentlemen about the tricked-out vehicle, their vision for the long-in-the-works project, and why cult actor/filmmaker Stephen Chow (Kung Fu Hustle) abruptly bowed out as the Hornet's trusty sidekick Kato. Ch-ch-check out both interviews below:

Hey, they fixed it. Now it does say Seth Rogen. Better late than never.
Ehhh… I still don’t see him as The Green Hornet. Than again, I didn’t see Michael Keaton as Batman, and FOR THE TIME, he was a good Batman. Of course, now that we have Bale, Keaton seems old hat. Just have to wait and see how it looks. Black Beauty looks promising.
