'Lanterns' teaser: Kyle Chandler trains Aaron Pierre in DC series

  • On Monday, HBO released a vibrant new teaser for Lanterns showcasing the powers of intergalactic cops Hal Jordan and John Stewart . The series premieres August 16.
  • As a DCU Chapter One project, Lanterns follows veteran Green Lantern Jordan and recruit Stewart investigating a murder mystery in Rushville, Nebraska. The detective drama was created by Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, and Tom King.
  • Nathan Fillion will reprise his role as Guy Gardner from last year's Superman film, and the trailer reveals Laura Linney in an undisclosed role. It shows Jordan training Stewart, challenging him to be "fearless."
  • Addressing negative viewer reactions to the first trailer's sterile color palette, this latest footage features brighter, comic book-style visuals and action-heavy sequences to define the show's tone.
  • Spanning two timelines—2016 and 2026—the series intersects through an eight-episode run. Co-showrunner Mundy noted that the show will explore "two different mysteries" that eventually converge.
