During a recent interview with The Nerdist (via Comic Book), David Corenswet described HBO's upcoming Green Lantern series as an 'R-rated project' with 'a True Detective feel.'
One thing that excites me so much about James' vision for the DCU is the different genres and tones that the movies can take on. And I know people are skeptical that certain genres and characters can mix. I would love to see this Superman in an R-rated project. In a detective, you know, in a thing like Lanterns, where it's a True Detective feel. I just think it can happen in spite of how bright and playful this version of the character is.
Finally, Apple TV+ has released a trailer for the third season of Invasion, premiering this August 22.
