New Green Lantern actor Aaron Pierre praises the "elite" talent working on Lanterns in James Gunn's DCU: "There's such a beautiful energy surrounding the project."

New Green Lantern actor Aaron Pierre has praised the “beautiful energy” surrounding the upcoming HBO series Lanterns ahead of his debut in James Gunn’s emerging DCU.

“We are still early in the process of Lanterns and the collaboration between DC and HBO. But what I can tell you is that everyone involved is an absolute elite in their respective fields.” Pierre tells GamesRadar+ during press work for Mufasa: The Lion King, in which he voices the future king of Pride Rock.

“Everyone is deeply passionate and wants this to be the best version of themselves, not just for us as a family telling the story, but for the people as well. “This is such a beloved character and there is such a wonderful energy surrounding the project.” Of course we want to deliver – and beyond. We are really looking forward to the work. I’m currently preparing and I’m really looking forward to it.

First announced as part of James Gunn and Peter Safran DCU Chapter One Set in 2023, the True Detective-inspired Lanterns will “follow new recruit John Stewart and Lantern legend Hal Jordan, two intergalactic police officers who are drawn into a dark, Earth-based mystery while investigating a murder in the American heartland.”

Aaron Pierre is accompanied in the Lantern mission by Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan. Kelly Macdonald also stars. True Detective: Night Country’s Chris Mundy will serve as showrunner and creator. Tom King and Damon Lindelof are also on board as writers and executive producers.

The DCU began with the animated Max series Creature Commandos. In 2025, the film Superman will be making its live-action hit, and a new teaser has revealed that a trailer is imminent. Meanwhile, Mufasa: The Lion King hits theaters on December 20th.
