These three are arguably the most famous Green Lanterns, so the fact that they’re not participating in the Green Lantern series is puzzling. All these characters are unquestionably worthy of the spotlight, but as far as Earth’s lineup of Green Lanterns goes, there are three important names missing: Kyle Rayner, Hal Jordan and John Stewart. It was announced in October 2020 that this show would focus on multiple human Lanterns, including Alan Scott, Guy Gardner, Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz, with Kilowog and Sinestro also playing key roles. However, one reason I’ve been skeptical that Green Lantern Corps was scrapped is because of who the Green Lantern series is featuring as its main characters. By 2018, it was confirmed that Hal Jordan and John Stewart would be the starring characters, and Green Lantern Corps was once reportedly described as a “ Lethal Weapon in space”-type story. A year later, the reboot was officially titled Green Lantern Corps, and the plan was for it to come out in 2020. We first heard about the Green Lantern property getting a second chance at cinematic glory back in late 2014, when a then-untitled Green Lantern reboot was announced as one of the forthcoming DC Extended Universe movies. Granted, this doesn’t constitute an official confirmation on Green Lantern Corps’ status, but assuming the information is true, there’s no need to put it in the shelved pile just yet. In THR’s article about The Trench and New Gods being scrapped, the reboot is mentioned as one of the movies that’s still part of the DC film slate, alongside Blue Beetle, Batgirl, Supergirl and Static Shock, to name a few. If a new report is to be believed, yes, Green Lantern Corps is still on the proverbial table.
