Nathan Fillion's Guy Gardner to Play Key Role in HBO's 'Lanterns'
The Green Lantern Corps series, now in production, expands the DC Universe with a darker, grounded tone and an ensemble cast led by Aaron Pierre and Kyle Chandler.
- Nathan Fillion reprises his role as the abrasive Guy Gardner, debuting in James Gunn's 'Superman' before returning in HBO's 'Lanterns.'
- The series follows Green Lanterns Hal Jordan and John Stewart as they investigate a murder in the American heartland, blending grounded storytelling with cosmic mythology.
- Kyle Chandler stars as veteran Lantern Hal Jordan, while Aaron Pierre plays new recruit John Stewart, with Ulrich Thomsen cast as Sinestro.
- Creative leadership includes Chris Mundy as showrunner, with Damon Lindelof and Tom King co-writing, and James Hawes directing the first two episodes.
- Lanterns is a cornerstone of the DC Universe reboot, contrasting its darker tone with the lighter, ensemble-driven approach of 'Superman.'
