But I don't believe Rock passed on it since 1) it was a part he wanted and 2) The Rock said he wasn't GL because it had already been "stamped".
"According to him it's John Stewart."?
Wait, did he say or even imply that? Or is he being asked that?
Which is his reply?
Also is this rumor by the same guy? - http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/rumor-warner-bros-considering-chris-pine-for-green-lantern
Why would he be saying he is hearing Chris Pine? If they are casting for John Stewart?
WB casting for John Stewart GL version (proposed scoop/treat as rumor)

Cain, you make it sound as if Hal's movie bombed "because" it was Hal as GL. It's like blaming Superman Returns' poor performance on Clark Kent being the main character. It bombed because it was written badly and had horrible acting. What else do you expect from a subpar actress like Blake Lively? And Reynolds always felt miscast to me.
As far as the actual rumor goes, every Lantern deserves to be showcased in a live-action movie. Noone should get preferential treatment over the others, but I'm thinking if this scoop is indeed legit, then it probably is mostly for PC reasons. At least that's what this video seems to be telling us, I mean look at its title: "Black Green Lantern". Really? So according to them John isn't being cast because of what he can potentially contribute as an actual character, but solely to fulfill a certain quota in order to "not leave Cyborg as the sole token black character".
You also mentioned a person who downplays Stewart for not being engaging unless he is given Hal's narrative. I doubt I can agree with that, but it's a fact that Jordan's lore and relationships with the JLA is the richest. In the video they also say that they think Ezra Miller is playing Barry Allen and we all know about Barry's history with Hal. They have the closest friendship in the team, if WB does try to do that, or the Hal/Batman type clash of personalities, with John in the movies, then yes, they pretty much will give him important portions of Hal's narrative.
