Inspired by the Green Lantern comics, Lanterns promises to be a sci-fi action series with a dark, immersive police plot.
The story follows John Stewart, a new recruit, and Hal Jordan, a legend in the Green Lanterns corps, two "intergalactic cops" assigned to investigate a disturbing terrestrial murder. This mission will lead them into a much larger mystery, with potentially cosmic repercussions.
With its dramatic tone and realistic approach, Lanterns is more mature and grounded than previous adaptations of the famous comic, recalling the atmosphere of a noir thriller, while retaining the epic and spectacular aspect of the DC Universe.
Lanterns will soon be available on Max. The exact release date has not yet been announced.
Synopsis: Two intergalactic cops, new recruit John Stewart and the legendary Hal Jordan, are confronted with a dark mystery on Earth while investigating a murder in the American heartland.
Created by Damon Lindelof(Watchmen, Lost) and Chris Mundy(Ozark), the series benefits from an ambitious production, blending realism and science fiction.
The cast includes Aaron Pierre (John Stewart), Kyle Chandler (Hal Jordan) and Kelly Macdonald, accompanied by Garret Dillahunt, Poorna Jagannathan and Ulrich Thomsen.
From DC Studios, Warner Bros. Television and HBO, Lanterns marks a turning point in the DC franchise, offering a more intimate and immersive take on the Green Lantern mythos.
Chris Mundy, executive producer and showrunner, explains that the aim is to offer "a multi-faceted drama, balancing tension, mystery and heartfelt emotion", while preserving the magic of the original material.
With its dark, captivating plot, realistic aesthetic and immersive approach, Lanterns is shaping up to be one of the most eagerly awaited series in the DC Universe.
