According to Hitfix, the studio has pulled the plug on the movie's June 25, 2010 release date in the wake of director Stephen Chow's departure.
Rogen, who penned the script with writing parnter Evan Goldberg, was to star as newspaper publisher Britt Reid, who fights crime in the guise of superhero the Green Hornet. Chow had been attached to star as his sidekick Kato.
