Harold "Hal" Jordan is a human test pilot and a legendary veteran of the Green Lantern Corps, an intergalactic peace-keeping organization, training recent recruit John Stewart as his successor and partner. In the comics, Hal Jordan is the second Green Lantern of Earth, after Alan Scott, and served as a military test pilot before being chosen by the wayward Power Ring of the dying Green Lantern Abin Sur as his successor. He is considered the greatest Green Lantern, an intergalactic law enforcer and member of the Green Lantern Corps, chosen by the Guardians of the Universe for his ability to overcome great fear, trained as a rookie by veteran Lantern turned his eventual archenemy, Sinestro.
Lanterns is an upcoming American television series based on DC Comics featuring the Green Lantern characters Hal Jordan and John Stewart. Produced by DC Studios and Warner Bros. Television, it will be the third television series in the DC Universe (DCU). It features Jordan and Stewart investigating a murder on Earth. Chris Mundy serves as showrunner.
Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre respectively star as Hal Jordan and John Stewart, alongside Kelly Macdonald and Nathan Fillion. Greg Berlanti began developing a Green Lantern television series by October 2019. After James Gunn and Peter Safran became co-CEOs of DC Studios in October 2022, the series was redeveloped. It was announced in January 2023, along with its detective story style, which was inspired by the series True Detective (2014–present) and Slow Horses (2022–present). Mundy's involvement alongside executive producers Tom King and Damon Lindelof was confirmed in mid-2024 when the series was ordered by HBO. Slow Horses's James Hawes was hired to direct the first two episodes in October, when Chandler and Pierre were cast. Filming is taking place in Los Angeles from February to July 2025, with Stephen Williams, Geeta Vasant Patel, and Alik Sakharov also directing.
Lanterns will premiere on HBO in early 2026 and will consist of eight episodes. It will be part of the DCU's Chapter One: Gods and Monsters.
John Marshall Stewart, Jr. is a new human recruit inducted into the Green Lantern Corps, assigned to train under the tutelage of veteran Lantern legend Hal Jordan. In the comics, John Stewart was the fourth Green Lantern of Earth, after Alan Scott, Hal Jordan, and Guy Gardner. He was also a member of the Justice League.
John Stewart is one of the principal fictional superheroes known as Green Lantern appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by Dennis O'Neil and Neal Adams, and first appeared in Green Lantern (Volume 2) #87 (December 1971/January 1972). Stewart's original design was based on actor Sidney Poitier[1] and he was one of the first African-American superheroes to appear in DC Comics.[2]
Today John Stewart is one of the most popular and high-profile black characters in American comic books. Although a starring character in Green Lantern comics since the 1970s, he had a relatively low profile in mainstream popular culture until his adaptation for the 2000s animated series Justice League and Justice League Unlimited, voiced by Phil LaMarr. This led to an increase in the character’s profile in comics, including a starring role in Justice League comics, and a massive expansion in the character’s availability in DC Comics toys and merchandise. Wayne T. Carr was cast as John Stewart in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) director's cut Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) but his role was ultimately cut from the film. Aaron Pierre will portray the character in the DC Universe, beginning with the TV series Lanterns (2026).
