tv echo October 30, 2019 Share October 30, 2019 (edited) 'Green Lantern' TV Series Among Pair of Greg Berlanti DC Dramas Set at HBO Max OCTOBER 29, 2019 4:09pm PT by Lesley Goldberghttps://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/green-lantern-tv-series-pair-greg-berlanti-dc-dramas-set-at-hbo-max-1250950 Quote Greg Berlanti continues to add to his record-breaking TV series tally. The prolific producer behind The CW's rapidly expanding Arrow-verse has set two DC Comics-inspired series at HBO Max, including a new take on Green Lantern and the anthology Strange Adventures. "Both of these original DC properties we’ll be creating for HBO Max will be unlike anything seen on television,” Berlanti, who now has 21 live-action scripted originals across seven outlets, said Tuesday in a statement. "An anthology series of cautionary tales set in a world where superpowers exist, and, in what promises to be our biggest DC show ever made, we will be going to space with a Green Lantern television series, but I can’t reveal any more about that just yet." This is Berlanti's second swing at the world of Green Lantern. He previously penned the screenplay (alongside Michael Green, frequent collaborator Marc Guggenheim and Michael Goldenberg) for the 2011 DC-produced Ryan Reynolds starrer. That movie was met with negative reviews and was considered a flop. (It grossed $219 million vs. a budget of $200 million.) Additional details, including a writer for Green Lantern, an episode count and when it would be available, are being kept under wraps. * * * The announcement was part of a wave of news during HBO Max's formal unveiling on Tuesday.

CabotCove November 19, 2019 Share November 19, 2019 (edited) Good news that it will be set in space and HBO Max seem to be ready to pour some serious money into this. Its about time for a Green lantern series. I wish they had disclosed which Green Lantern or lanterns will be in this show. Edited November 19, 2019 by CabotCove Link to comment

AnimeMania May 22, 2021 Share May 22, 2021 HBO Max has ordered 10 one-hour episodes of “Green Lantern.” The story spans decades and galaxies, beginning on Earth in 1941 with the very first Green Lantern, secretly gay FBI agent Alan Scott, and 1984, with cocky alpha male Gardner and half-alien Bree Jarta. They’ll be joined by a multitude of other Lanterns — from comic book favorites to never-before-seen heroes. Link to comment
The Crazed Spruce May 23, 2021 Author Share May 23, 2021 I wonder if they're gonna bring in Mogo. It might be a bit tricky shooting scenes with him, though, because Mogo doesn't socialize.... Link to comment
Kromm May 23, 2021 Share May 23, 2021 I'd like to know the per episode budget for this one... Link to comment
AngieBee1 May 26, 2021 Share May 26, 2021 Irvine confirmed on his Instagram that he's been cast as Alan. I think it's great casting news - Irvine is a good actor. I hope that there will be at least a brief panel about the Green Lantern series during the next DC Fandome. Link to comment
