John Stewart’s Green Lantern powers are different from Hal Jordan’s
Chris Mundy, the creator and showrunner of HBO’s upcoming series Lanterns, has revealed new details about the Green Lanterns’ powers in the show.
In an interview with Men’s Health, Mundy explained that John Stewart’s Green Lantern powers differ from those of Hal Jordan. He described them as deeply rooted in creativity and emotional expression. The creator said, “One thing we attacked from the beginning was that the Green Lantern powers, a lot of it is based in creativity. To manifest things from the Lantern rings, you’ve got to manifest something from your brain—but also kind of from your soul. What does that look like? What does it feel like?”
Mundy compared the process to that of an artist shaping their work, noting that Aaron Pierre, starring as John Stewart, brought depth to the performance. He explained, “And Aaron had to be able to sell that John could have that ability. And that’s what he did. He understood that John would appreciate that aspect of their powers.”
Meanwhile, Hal Jordan’s powers are portrayed as more direct. “We always joked that Hal just wants to hit everything with a big, green fist,” the creator explained.
In the same interview, Mundy shared that Lanterns takes place across different timelines, which presented a unique challenge. He said, “Our story takes place in a couple of different time periods, and so the challenge was for the characters to be consistent at their core.”
Lanterns is being developed by Warner Bros. Television and DC Studios, with a premiere date expected for HBO Max next year. The show will also star Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan alongside Pierre’s John Stewart.
