Three Humans To Be Green Lanterns In Upcoming Green Lantern Corps. Movie

When Man of Steel made it's way into movie theaters, it was the first step in Warner Bros. plan on creating the DCEU, but it wasn't until the release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice that we got to see some of the players that would be featured in future films.  The one that was noticeably absent was Green Lantern.  It's been said that this was done on purpose, due to the poor showing that the Green Lantern movie had, both with audiences and critics.  They didn't want to jump into casting a new Hal Jordan right away, hoping that if they waited, people would forget about the Ryan Reynolds film.  That's one reason that they decided to wait until 2020 before giving us a new Green Lantern movie.

That didn't stop Warner Bros. from announcing that they were going to make a new Green Lantern movie, though.  This time, it won't just feature Hal Jordan, but rather three Green Lanterns from Earth.  Along with Hall Jordan, Latino Review is reporting that he'll be joined by John Stewert and Kyle Rayner.  The casting call for Hal Jordan said that they are looking for an actor around the age of 45, but when it comes to John Stewert and Kyle Rayner they want actors that are much younger.  This could be a way for WB to sort of "pass the torch" from the older Green Lantern to the younger ones.  If this is the case, we may not see Hal Jordan in the DCEU for very long.

While Latino Review usually gets their information correct when reporting leaks about movies, this should still be taken with a grain of salt.  It would be fun to see these three characters on the big screen all at the same time, but the one Green Lantern that I really want to see wasn't mentioned.  That would be Guy Gardner.  Hopefully, with the movie still years away from being made, they'll include him in on this one.

So what do you think?  Has WB made the right decisions in choosing these Green Lanterns?  Which Green Lanterns would you like to see in the movie?  Let me know your thoughts in the comments section down below.

Green Lantern Corps. comes out June 19, 2020.
