The official Synopsis is:
"The official synopsis from the production's May 2010 press release reads:[2]
In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.

Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all."

Toys for Green Lantern

Previously unconfirmed Green Lantern Corps members appearing in plastic form below include R-Amey Holl, Ganthet, Boodikka and Salaak. They are joined by Sinestro, Abin Sur, Kilowag, Tomar Re, and of course Hal Jordan and The Green Lantern.

Fueling the argument that these new Corps members will appear in the film is that the known members Heroclix toy designs all match the on-screen versions we've already seen in The Green Lantern movie trailer. They may only get a brief cameo, but it's a good bet these are the Corps members that will be easily recognizable in the film.
