DC's Green Lantern Nears Casting as Supergirl Unveils Villain

Sep 25, 2024 2:41 PM

DC is making strides in its cinematic universe with significant developments regarding its upcoming projects, particularly the Green Lanterns series and a new Supergirl movie. Kyle Chandler is rumored to be in talks to portray Hal Jordan in the Green Lanterns series, following early speculation linking Josh Brolin to the role. This marks the character's return to live-action since Ryan Reynolds' portrayal in 2011. The series will also introduce John Stewart as they tackle an Earth-based murder mystery. Meanwhile, Matthias Schoenaerts will play a villain in the Supergirl film, which is based on the comic series Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, set to release in 2026.

What is the release date for the new Supergirl film?

The Supergirl film is currently scheduled to release on June 26, 2026.

Green Lanterns will bring Hal Jordan back to the screen, a character that fans have long awaited to see in a new live-action format, especially after the criticism surrounding the 2011 film. This new series aims to redefine the character alongside John Stewart and explore compelling storytelling with a modern twist. Additionally, Supergirl, a character popularized in comics and animated adaptations, is set to take center stage, promising an intriguing blend of action and character development in her first live-action feature film.
