“It’s only one question: are you afraid?” Ready for more? DC + HBO have revealed a second teaser trailer for their new Green Lanterns spin-off series called simply Lanterns – set for a streaming debut coming up this August. Will this actually turn out any good? Take a closer look. Lanterns follows new recruit John Stewart & Lantern legend Hal Jordan, two intergalactic cops drawn into a dark, Earth-based mystery as they investigate a murder in the American heartland. Featuring Kyle Chandler playing Hal Jordan, the fan fave Green Lantern, along with Aaron Pierre as John Stewart, the newcomer in the Lantern Corps. The cast includes Kelly Macdonald, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner (from Superman), Garret Dillahunt, Poorna Jagannathan, Ulrich Thomsen, Nicole Ari Parker, Jason Ritter, Sherman Augustus, and Paul Ben-Victor as villain Antaan. Green Lanterns are intergalactic peacekeepers with rings that give them powers. The series ends up in Nebraska, leading them to darker mysteries & reckonings. This new teaser features more actual Green Lantern footage and some other planets and more VFX, but it still looks a bit muted & unexciting overall. I just hope this concept works. We’ll find out in a just few months from now. // Continue Reading ›
