![]() You can find his film and TV reviews here. Kyle Anderson is the Senior Editor for Nerdist. But giving the lead to Stewart seems like a smart choice indeed. I’d also love newer Lanterns Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz to appear as well. Hopefully we’ll still see Guy Gardner, Alan Scott, and Hal Jordan on the show. ![]() The THR report hastens to add this turnaround of Green Lantern has nothing to do with Tuesday’s news of James Gunn and Peter Safran coming on as DC Studios co-heads. For many-myself included-Stewart is the Green Lantern, despite Hal Jordan’s return. This introduced him to a generation of young fans. Despite the fact that the current comic book Lantern was Kyle Rayner, it was Stewart Bruce Timm and company chose to be on Justice League. In the decades since, however, John Stewart became one of DC’s standout characters. The same reason Marvel introduced Luke Cage. Initially his arrival was part of the wave of Blaxploitation titles in film, TV, and comics in the decade. John Stewart debuted in 1971 as one of DC’s first Black superheroes. Alan Scott, the original Golden Age Green Lantern, had come out as gay in the comics and the series would have focused on that. Finn Wittrock and Jeremy Irvine had already joined the series as Gardner and Scott, respectively. As of 2019, the show became an HBO Max exclusive and would lost the Corps in the title. Later, it was going to be an HBO series called Green Lantern Corps. First it was to be one of the many now-jettisoned DCEU films. The Green Lantern title had been on DC’s slate for a long time. Writer Seth Grahame-Smith had already written eight episodes in the original format and has now exited the project. The series will no longer focus on Lanterns Guy Gardner and Alan Scott but instead will star John Stewart, the 1970s iteration who rose to prominence thanks to the Justice League animated series. Add another one to that list.Īccording to The Hollywood Reporter, the proposed Green Lantern TV series from Arrowverse creator Greg Berlanti for HBO Max is getting reformatted. As such, it seems like every announced GL live action project has hit a host of issues. Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) was one of the flagship new characters that brought about the Silver Age of super-hero comics. Unfortunately, the 2009 Green Lantern movie starring Ryan Reynolds was not only a flop but a critical punching bag. Geoff Johns’ run reintroduced Silver Age Lantern Hal Jordan and birthed a whole rainbow of other Lantern corps each with its own roster of characters. For a while in the mid-to-late aughts, DC title Green Lantern and its offshoots was the title for the company.
