This one detail just made me even more excited for ‘Lanterns’

Peacemaker Season 2 drew to a close just a few weeks ago, but the hype for the DC Universe is only continuing to grow. The film and television projects on the immediate horizon are set to traverse genres and comic canon in some fun ways… and it sounds like that will absolutely be the case with Lanterns.

The live-action HBO series is set to (finally) return the Green Lantern mythos to live-action, through Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) and John Stewart (Aaron Pierre) partnering up to solve a True Detective-esque mystery. The most we’ve seen of Lanterns so far is a single casual (but still reverential to the comics) promotional photo, which has naturally led to a lot of speculation and curiosity about how the world of the Lantern Corps will be brought to life. But honestly, one quote from a recent Men’s Health profile on Pierre might have just sold the show in the best way yet.
