We’re in a new era of the DC Universe, and this time, it’s going to stick. Under the wise hand of James Gunn, the franchise got a fresh start with Superman, and it’s only continued with Peacemaker Season 2 and the upcoming Supergirl. But things won’t stop there — HBO will air Lanterns, a detective drama inspired by True Detective. For a while, it seemed like this series would be more or less separated from the events of Superman — at least for now — but it looks like the crossoverfication of DC Studios is starting sooner than we thought.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Lanterns star Aaron Pierre will appear in Man of Tomorrow, the upcoming sequel to Superman. Even though we haven’t seen Lanterns yet, this reveals a lot about both the series and the future of the DC Universe itself.
