But it’s good Kyle Chandler who should play Hal Jordan (the announcement is not yet official) in this big production entitled Lanternswhich will be derived from Warner Bros.’ brand new DCUniverse, currently being set up by James Gunn.
In LanternsHal Jordan will team up with another member of the Lantern Corps, John Stewart.

A fairly dark superhero crime drama, developed by Chris Mundy (True Detective: Night Country, Ozark) And Damon Lindelof (The Leftovers, Watchmen).
Let us recall that Hal Jordan was also the version Green Lantern embodied by Ryan Reynolds at the cinema in the famous 2011 film, so criticized.
