We ran a rumor just yesterday about what Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment may do with their Green Lanterns come 2020(or sooner if they show up in Justice League or even sooner if they show up at Comic Con International in 2 weeks). Today comes a tiny tidbit of a rumor that may set your rings ablaze. Chris Pine may be your next Hal Jordan.
Could 2020 be the year of John Stewart? Possibly. Well, actually according to a recent rumor from Collider, we might actually get a live action Guy Gardner soon! How about that for some late Tuesday news!
THR spoke with WB executive Greg Silverman about the strategy they are taking with DC Comics adaptations and well, its vastly different from the cheaper Marvel/Disney route but may end up being the more riskier venture. Read below for quotes.
Asked about the difference between working on a film like “Green Lantern” and the challenges of TV, Guggenheim said, “With ‘Green Lantern,’ we [he and Co-Showrunner Greg Berlanti] really learned the lesson of control. We didn’t have it on ‘Green Lantern.’ It got taken out of our hands at a certain point, and stuff happened. The difference between features and TV is that on TV, as a writer, you’re writing for your life. Every eight business days, there’s a new script due, and as a showrunner, it all goes through your pen. Sometimes what’s getting shot is literally your first draft. At the same time, it’s getting shot.”

Was I right in my concerns with making Aquaman the bad superhero so many portray him to be, or does the movie give him proper justice? Click below to find out. Click here to read the full article.
