"It's daunting," he said. "Just the process, something like 1,300 visual effects shots, it's mind-blowing, quite honestly."
Most of the effects shots work will center around the Green Lantern's power ring, he explained.
"It's energized by a battery on the planet of Oa, which taps into the willpower of everyone in the universe. From that ring you can form constructs. So if you got into a fight, you could form a giant fist. Or a fighter plane."
The Warner Bros. film, which stars Ryan Reynolds, is slated for release on June 17, 2011.
