The DCU‘s upcoming HBO series, Lanterns, is taking a similar approach to James Gunn’s Superman in how it will approach introducing its titular heroes into the universe. Originally described in a similar vein to True Detective, HBO’s Lanterns series will feature the iconic Green Lanterns Hal Jordan and John Stewart as they get drawn into an Earth-based murder mystery. The upcoming DCU release already has a lot of notable names attached to the project, including showrunner Chris Mundy (Ozark), executive producer Damon Lindelof (Watchmen, The Leftovers), and DC Comics’ vet Tom King coming in as a writer.
