Despite being one of the most popular superheroes in DC Comics, Green Lantern has had an underwhelming run in the realm of DC movies and shows. Ryan Reynolds’s attempt to bring the character to life in the first Green Lantern movie famously drew heavy criticism when it was released.
But now it seems that DC is going to have a flood of green as the studio has at least six confirmed projects coming up featuring Green Lantern. Here is every upcoming show and movie featuring the iconic DC character.
List of every upcoming DC movie and show where Green Lantern appears
Superman
The most awaited DC movie in a long while also marks the return of Green Lantern to the big screen. This time, Nathan Fillion will take over the role. Though he is not the main protagonist, as the title of the film suggests, he still has an interesting role working alongside other DC heroes like Mr. Terrific (Edi Gathegi) and Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced). It drops on July 11, 2025.
Peacemaker Season 2
Not many fans were expecting to catch a glimpse of Green Lantern in the upcoming season of Peacemaker. However, he was already revealed in the trailer, and now he is set to appear in the second season of the acclaimed HBO series. It will premiere on August 21, 2025.
Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League
An animated appearance from the legendary DC character will happen in Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League, which is a sequel to the famed 2018 Batman Ninja. The movie just premiered and features Green Lantern as a powerful adversary to the Dark Knight. Ayane Sakura voiced this version of the character.
Lanterns
Perhaps the biggest Green Lantern project, Lanterns will feature the story of the cosmic Corps set on Earth. It will follow Aaron Pierre’s John Stewart as a Green Lantern and Kyle Chandler’s veteran Hal Jordan as his mentor. Nathan Fillion will also return.
Lanterns is slated for a 2026 release on HBO Max.
My Adventures with Green Lantern
Another entry into the series after My Adventures with Superman, My Adventures with Green Lantern will follow high school student Jessica Cruz, who is chosen by the ring and subsequently thrust into an intergalactic war.
The series has yet to receive a release date window.
DC Super Powers
DC Super Powers is an upcoming series that will focus on young versions of iconic characters like Flash, Aquagirl, Terra, and Lightning. This will also feature Green Lantern. The series is still far off, and there is no release date window yet.
More updates about these upcoming Green Lantern shows and movies will likely arrive soon.
