Without a whole lot of upcoming DC TV shows confirmed for live-action, fans have been anxiously awaiting Lanterns’ arrival on the 2026 TV schedule. The creative team has been keeping a fairly tight lid on the show’s storyline, comic book connections and characters without going much deeper than the general narrative synopses. In such times, fan speculation tends to run rampant, but no one ever really expects the stars themselves to play into the theories.
Yet that’s just what Deadwood vet and Lanterns co-star Garret Dillahunt did when he shared a piece of fan art on social media that posed his cowboy-leaning character William Macon as the haunting Green Lantern antagonist Black Hand. Given his support for the post, some fans assumed he was validating the idea and confirming that his character will get such a late-season reveal. Of course, that’s not really the case…or is it?
