The Official Lanterns News & Discussion Thread

[LifesEnd]

Ok back on track I know she’s not cast yet but just for fun I would love to know who you would cast in an age appropriate way for carol ferris? I’m sure there’s so many super cool older actresses who could play her.

Oh you know who could be fun? Alyssa Milano

Kelly Mcdonald who is apprently playing an OC probably would have been a good choice for Carol. Unless this is Wandavision scenario(...town under a spell or something like that and she is playing Carol)

Atrocitus...I never thought the day would come he would be on screen!

 

[Silvermoth]

That’s a very cool choice

Atrocitus...I never thought the day would come he would be on screen!

I'm going to be so excited if he's actually playing Atrocitus in the show. I hope one day we get to see Larfleeze and maybe Saint Walker as well!

‘Days Of Our Lives’ Actor Cary Christopher Joins ‘Lanterns’ DC Series At HBO

Rising young actor Cary Christopher (Days of Our Lives, Mr. Mom) will guest star in Lanterns, based on the Green Lantern DC comic.

t.co

 

[-Arya-]

Sinestro and Atrocitus are going to be in the show? Holy ****

I am really hoping it's Atrocitus! They have been using code names for characters, but the description sounds like a fit for Atrocitus.

According to Josh Brolin, Paula Patton is also starring.

Patton and the kid from Weapons are great additions to this. Just finished rewatching Watchmen with my gf (her first time seeing it) and now I’m practically counting down the days until this comes out. So freaking excited

 

[emielaen]

This feels like such an ace up the sleeve for DC. Such absurd potential and they haven't even started marketing it yet. NYCC should be a fun one w (hopefully) this and Supergirl.

I think some DCU nuggets are a shoo-in too. They seem keen on letting it be known that these projects exist alongside one another.

I'm just now learning Kyle Chandler was heavily considered for the role of Cable in Deadpool 2. I guess the director wanted him, but Reynolds wanted Brolin.

Now Chandler is playing Hal Jordan/Green Lantern. What a wild world lol.



I know the description says the characters name is Noah, but this kid gives off young Hal Jordan vibes for sure.

They are such polar opposite types to me, it's hard for me to fathom that Kyle Chandler and Josh Brolin were ever considered for the same role, let alone that it happened twice.

Josh Brolin is the Snyderverse Hal.

 

[AndrewGilkison]

Josh Brolin is the Snyderverse Hal.

Snyder originally approached him for Batman before he went to Affleck.

According to Josh Brolin, Paula Patton is also starring.

Thoroughly amused that some of the DC news socials have immediately jumped to “Is she Star Sapphire??”

Like, y’all… based on what? The fact that she might involved in this?

 

[Sawyer]

Whoa, wtf, I didn’t know the lead of Alien: Earth was Kyle Chandler’s daughter…

 

[Karelia]

Whoa, wtf, I didn’t know the lead of Alien: Earth was Kyle Chandler’s daughter…

I saw the last name, didn't think anything of it. That's actually awesome though. I like her from what I have seen (first episode.)

And no idea why people think she's Carol. I don't know anything about her, acting wise. If she's Carol, that's cool, I guess? Haha!

 

[Sawyer]

Amused to see some folks online still complaining about Chandler’s age.

I feel like people have been begging for legacy **** to play out on screen like it has in the comics for years. You’re not gonna get that when everyone is 25-30.

Also dude is still in top shape and almost everyone’s more age-appropriate fancasts were boring, so… knock it off.

Because the fantasy cinematic universe story in their minds just keeps going for 25+ years.

 

[emielaen]

And if you're over 45, the only thing for you to do is die apparently.

 

[Elayis]

First look at Kelly MacDonald's sheriff.

[FrankenCastle]

But when I tell people I want an older, more mature Batman for the DCU, they all turn on me somehow.
