Damon Lindelof (“Lost,” “Watchmen”) and Chris Mundy (“Ozark”) have joined DC’s upcoming Green Lantern series as writers.
DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn confirmed the news on Instagram Saturday, writing, “Yes, it’s true. The ‘Lanterns’ DCU series is putting together a crack team of writers, based on a wonderful pilot script and bible by Chris Mundy, Tom King and Damon Lindelof.”
In January of last year, Gunn and DC Studios co-head Peter Safran announced the Green Lantern series, titled “Lanterns,” as one of the first 10 film and TV titles within the rebooted DC Universe. At the time, Safran described the series as “a huge HBO-quality event” that is “very much in the vein of ‘True Detective.’”
“Lanterns” will focus on two of the best known members of the Green Lantern corps.: Hal Jordan (the test pilot first played on screen by Ryan Reynolds in 2011’s “Green Lantern”) and John Stewart (an ex-marine and one of DC’s first Black superheroes), who investigate a mystery that Safran said “plays a really big role leading us into the main story that we’re telling across our film and television.”
