Kyle Chandler<\/a> takes flight as Hal Jordan<\/a> in the highly anticipated Lanterns<\/a> series from<\/a> DC Studios<\/a>. Confirming longstanding rumors, Chandler is set to portray one of the most iconic members of the Green Lantern<\/a> Corps, according to THR<\/a>. This announcement comes after months of speculation, including reports of Josh Brolin<\/a> declining the role, ultimately paving the way for Chandler\u2019s entry into the DC Universe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The casting news doesn\u2019t stop there. DC<\/a> Studios is actively searching for an actor to play John Stewart<\/a>, another prominent character within the Green Lantern lore. Stewart and Jordan have been seminal figures in the Green Lantern franchise, with previous portrayals by Ryan Reynolds<\/a> and animated features respectively. Notably, Stewart was also slated to appear in Zack Snyder’s Justice League<\/a> played by Wayne T. Carr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Little is known about the broader details of the series at this stage. According to a separate report from THR, HBO<\/a> aims to begin filming the project from January to June next year. The series is in experienced hands with Chris Mundy<\/a>, Damon Lindelof, and Tom King taking on executive production duties. Lindelof and King will also co-write the series, combining their respective expertise from prominent projects such as True Detective<\/a>: Night Country, Ozark, The Leftovers, and Watchmen<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The show garnered an official straight-to-series order from HBO in June 2024, more than a year after the 8-episode project was first announced in January 2023. This timeline is a testament to the intricate planning and high expectations behind the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The show’s official synopsis hints at a thrilling narrative: “The series follows new recruit John Stewart and Lantern legend Hal Jordan, two intergalactic cops drawn into a dark, earth-based mystery as they investigate a murder in the American heartland.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Given the calibre of the talent involved and the rich source material, Lanterns is shaping up to be a landmark series for both DC Studios and HBO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Set to commence shooting early next year, the series aims to tap into a blend of intergalactic adventure and dark, earth-bound mysteries. With such a compelling premise, fans of the Green Lantern franchise and newcomers alike are in for a treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Casting updates, particularly for John Stewart, are highly anticipated, given the character\u2019s significance and the past portrayals that have left indelible marks on the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lanterns is poised to be a game-changer in the DC Universe with its fresh take on the Green Lantern mythos and a stellar cast and crew behind its production. Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the series’ filming start date and eventual release. This will surely be one for the comic book history books.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMore Insights on Lanterns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
