DC is ramping up its casting course of a bit for its new cinematic universe, with progress being made on each its Inexperienced Lanterns sequence and Supergirl.
There’s been a number of rumours about how may be solid as Hal Jordan within the upcoming Inexperienced Lanterns present, merely titled Lanterns, with early stories claiming Josh Brolin had been provided the function, and later stories saying he turned it down. Nevertheless, Deadline reported earlier this week that Kyle Chandler, identified for sequence like Bloodline and movies like Godzilla: King of Monsters, is at present in talks to star as Hal. He hasn’t been 100% confirmed simply but, however it’s sounding like he is the more than likely one to tackle the function. If he’s solid, this’ll be the primary time that character will seem in a live-action DC property because the 2011 model with Ryan Reynolds (and everyone knows how that went).
The sequence can even characteristic fellow Inexperienced Lantern John Stewart, who’ll be a brand new recruit, with the 2 of them having to unravel an Earth-based thriller involving homicide within the American heartland – casting for John Stewart remains to be underway. Lanterns was solely greenlit again in June, regardless of being within the works for some time earlier than then, so do not anticipate it to be launched any time quickly, particularly contemplating casting is not even completed but.
One little bit of DCU casting information we will say for sure, although, is that Matthias Schoenearts (The Danish Woman) is now connected to Supergirl in a villain function. This can clearly be the primary live-action Supergirl movie, and it is primarily based on the 2022 run of the character Supergirl: Lady of Tomorrow. On this comedian, the principle villain is a personality referred to as Krem of the Yellow Hill, who kills the daddy of a younger alien lady, this lady in flip bringing Supergirl in for assist. Again in April, I, Tonya director Craig Gillespie was roped in to direct the venture, which is at present slated to launch June 26, 2026.
