Apparently Warner Bros. Has Found Their New GREEN LANTERN

Before you get too exited, we don't actually know who it is, but Latino Review's El Mayimbe reckons the studio has settled on a new actor to play Green Lantern in the DC Cinematic Universe. Which Lantern will it be? The safe bet is John Stewart. More past the jump.

We're not gonna make too much of this, but just so you're aware that Green Lantern casting news may be imminent, here's the latest from El Mayimbe via his Instagram account.



"In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight!" Well, according to sources, I'm hearing Warners has finally found their GREEN LANTERN! This scoop is kicking my butt though because I can't get the name...yet. Still trying to bag it. Thought I would share it with you guys. Back to the hunt & good night!


When asked if he knew which Green Lantern it'd be, he replied that it was a part Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson originally passed on, so he assumes it's John Stewart. That would back up some previous rumors we've heard anyway, but now the question is, who has nabbed the role? Hopefully Mayimbe finds out and gives us an update soon, but for now feel free to speculate away in the usual place.

Bets on it being nate parker or david oyelowo

Why would The Rock pass being John Stewart? He said that he would only play him or Black Adam.

Tyrese?

Is Green Lantern going to cameo in BvS? If not, no need to rush a casting decision for this.

If it is Tyrese I think we would know already.

If it's Tyrese, my faith is lost.

IF it's Tyrese, 95% of this site has a crap ton of crow to chow down on.

If it's John Stewart that's disapointing, because I wanted Hal Jordan. I also wanted the Martian Manhunter too, but am getting Cyborg instead. So that would be two characters in the film I really didn't want. I hope at least if it's John Stewart. Hal Jordan exists in the universe and is the leader of the Green Lantern Corps. This way John can be part of the Justice League movie and Hal gets to be in the Green Lantern Corps movie.

His character in the F&F series it pretty good. IF it's him he'd do fine.

I'll take Jon, but no Tyrese.

Dwayne was never up for GL. Now he DID express an interest in playing the character, but he wasn't up for the role.

I don't know, I don't see it, I think they can do better, imo....

@DraculaX

He didn't.

The Rock said himself that GL was already "stamped" which is why he's Black Adam and not GL
Pasto
Pasto - 3/2/2015, 7:25 PM
I mean the Rock even said he'd "like to play either GL or Black Adam, but one of those characters had already been done."(or something along those lines)

Find the interview, he says that clearly

Yeah, because DC and Marvel care if they win on who breaks more news and how the fan-sites enjoy them.

I don't care if it's John Stewart or Hal Jordan, I'm just glad Green Lantern is getting another shot after that catastrophe in 2011

I wouldnt cry if it was Tyrese but I really would like Nate Parker for John Stewart. He's really underrated. And I would be down for Dan Amboyer as Hal Jordan.

If this is true (85% false probably) then what if Ezra will play Wally?

@Malakas okay first of all it's not that hard to copy and paste my name instead of misspelling it second I'm simply saying that DC hasn't released anything lately no need to be such a dick

Don't worry people it's not gonna be Tyrese. I have a strong feeling it's gonna be Nate Parker who got cast as Green Lantern, which I've been saying for months!
