DC Universe founder James Gunn responds about the original Green Lantern TV show that was being developed before the creation of DC Studios.
With a new Lanterns TV show currently being developed by DC Studios, Gunn was asked on Threads by @mysticalmaniac2 about the Green Lantern series that was in the works prior to the DC Universe line-up being revealed.
When asked what happened to “the original Lantern series that was being developed for the DCEU,” Gunn chimed in with, “I didn’t think it was in the DCEU, but that was before my time.” The DC Studios co-CEO also responded in regards to the question if he would consider casting Finn Wittrock, who was set to play Guy Gardner, by saying, “I think Finn’s a talented guy and he’ll be okay!” while also stressing that “it’s not being “done dirty”, it’s a part of the job” when the fan expressed that they felt the actor was done dirty by losing the gig.
