Lanterns, a detective drama in the vein of True Detective and Slow Horses, follows Jordan and Stewart as they investigate a murder that spirals into a far-reaching conspiracy. The series is officially part of James Gunn's DC Universe, sharing continuity with projects like Creature Commando and the upcoming films Superman and Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.
Developed by Damon Lindelof (creator of Lost), alongside Chris Mundy and Tom King, Lanterns promises a darker, grittier tone. Gunn describes it as “very grounded, very believable, very real…the kind of things that you would never think that would be the truth about a Green Lanterns television series.”
Chandler, known for his role in Friday Night Lights, portrays an older Hal Jordan, while Aaron Pierre, who starred in Rebel Ridge, takes on the role of John Stewart. The series is aiming for a 2026 premiere, coinciding with the release of the Supergirl movie.
