Upcoming Green Lantern film will focus on the Green Lantern Corps

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

We've heard some rumors that Warner Bros.' upcoming GREEN LANTERN film would possibly follow two or even three Lanterns. Well, it looks like there was some truth to that as WB just confirmed that the film would, in fact, be about the Green Lantern Corps.

For those uninitiated, The Green Lantern Corps is the intergalactic military/police force who patrol the farthest reaches of the universe at the behest of a race of immortals residing on the planet Oa, known as The Guardians. The Corps has been in existence for three billion years, surviving multiple conflicts both internal and foreign. Each Green Lantern sports a power ring that grants the use of abilities directed by the wearer's own willpower.

Given that the most interest aspect of Martin Campbell's GREEN LANTERN movie was Ryan Reynolds' training and interaction with the other Lanterns, it makes sense to have a movie focus on the relationships and politics of the Corps. Hang in there, Tyrese! You may have a shot just yet!

The GREEN LANTERN CORPS film is currently slated to hit theaters on June 19, 2020.
