Actor Jon Tenney, who was once married to Teri Hatcher, has signed on to play Martin H. Jordan, the father of Hal Jordan for the upcoming “Green Lantern.”
The new broke yesterday on Comic Book Hype, where Tenney said that the sequences with Martin would be seen in flashback.
In the comics, Martin was Hal’s idol growing up before dying in a plane he was test piloting. It was because of his father that Hal became a test pilot himself.
Tenney is currently part of the cast of “The Closer” and had a prominent guest role on the third season finale of “Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.”

OK, I’ll say it. How exactly is the identity of his ex-wife relevant to the story?
@Arkle: She’s your father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate. That’s right. Absolutely nothing.
Maybe they are planning to announce her involvement in the movie. They just like to get people thinking about it first.
Or maybe they are just name-dropping bastards.
