Will Hal and John be teaming up to tackle the new movie together? 

[dropcap size=small]N[/dropcap]ews of a new Green Lantern film first came to light at San Diego Comic Con this past July with the below concept art, but the reveal didn’t give us very much to go on.

What we do know is that the film is due to include multiple Green Lanterns, and is titled Green Lantern Corps., which is slated for a 2020 release.

Very little was revealed after that, and we still have no clue as to who might be in the film cast-wise (other than rumours surrounding Chris Pine as Hal and Tyrese Gibson as John).

However, evidence has surfaced that might suggest which Green Lanterns we’ll be seeing. 

Many have suspected for a long time that Hal Jordon and John Stewart are very likely to be featured – Hal Jordon is, after all, one of the most well known figures in Green Lantern circles, as well as Stewart – and it seems this may have been made more concrete.

According to the Italian site Cinefilos – who covered the Warner panel at the Professional Days of Cinema of Sorrento event – it was strongly hinted at that John and Hal would be ‘deployed’ together in the film, and would likely be the two central Green Lanterns of the upcoming reboot. 

DC also recently revealed the upcoming Green Lantern Corps comic issue #1 (due this coming January), showcasing some of the covers by veteran artist Ethan Van Sciver.

The upcoming issues in the new run certainly seem to put the pair centre stage. Will the film reboot follow suit? Well, anything’s possible at this stage. 

For the time being, nothing but the title and release date have been confirmed for definite, and even though Hal and John’s place in the film isn’t set in stone, it does seem quite likely.

With plenty of time before it’s due to be released, we’ll just have to wait for further developments. 

Let’s just hope it doesn’t crash and burn quite so badly as the last attempt back in 2011.

It’s okay Ryan Reynolds, you’re Deadpool now.
