One of those quickly approaching projects is Lanterns, a television adaptation of the Green Lantern Corps created by Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, Tom King, and showrun by Mundy. The lore of the Green Lanterns in comics is expansive and wide–reaching, with multiple human Lanterns and storylines that stretch from Earth to the far reaches of DC’s cosmic sector. But outside of the fact that the show follow veteran Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) in his attempts to train newcomer John Stewart (Aaron Pierre), fans had no idea what to expect. Beyond shining a light on the dynamic between our two leads, the teaser also presents a much smaller scope than one might expect from a Green Lantern show. This version of Hal Jordan seems less cocky flyboy and more world-weary mentor.
