May 19, 2026

Second movie trailer for Lanterns starring Aaron Pierre, Kyle Chandler.

Compare to the first trailer, we can Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) and John Stewart (Aaron Pierre) in their Lantern suit.

This Lanterns Series may very well be the origin story of Green Lantern, which will be in the upcoming Man of Tomorrow film.

A few thoughts on “Lanterns”:

  • I love that they developed this as a series rather than a movie; it allows for much more breathing room and development of the characters.
  • Instead of being a sprawling intergalactic epic, the series feels grounded, focusing more on “street-level” heroism.
  • Even though it’s titled Lanterns, the trailer suggests the core focus is on John Stewart’s development as a Green Lantern and his eventual role in replacing Hal Jordan.

Lanterns will be an eight-episode series scheduled to premiere on HBO Max in August 2026. It will officially be part of the DCU’s Chapter One: Gods and Monsters.
