Green Lantern 2022 Announcement Breakdown and Justice League Snyder Cut Easter Eggs

Welcome back everyone this is going to be my brand  new green lantern hbo announcement you probably  just saw they finally started dropping all this  news about what's going on with the green lantern  series so we'll break it all down we even got some  footage of the deleted scene of john stewart green   lantern that was supposed to be in zack snyder's  justice league snyder cut so i'll also talk about that during the video too you've probably been  seeing a whole bunch of green lantern stuff being   posted in your timeline including ryan reynolds  posting more green lantern stuff which i'll talk about but if you're new to the channel be sure  to subscribe to get all the videos i will do episode videos for the green lantern hbo  series when it does premiere next year but the really big stuff you probably saw the  news this past week they finally announced finn wittrock as guy gardner in the green  lantern hbo series that they're gett ready to shoot right now that's why they made the  casting announcement ryan reynolds even offered his own endorsement joking that it was all part  of his plan it's all falling into place i know there are all kinds of questions about whether  or not he'll be involved with the franchise ever again in any capacity recently you probably  saw the video that he posted he posted this  
funny video of himself re-watching his green  lantern movie for the first time in forever  

i think he said he'd never actually watched  the theatrical cut after the premiere and here this is has been our home for countless millennia  it was created for us by the guardians if you look real closely there you can see he's even wearing  his original green lantern ring from the movie that he kept that's the actual ring that he  wore during the film also funny detail about that movie too is that because taika watiti's an  actor he appeared during that film now obviously both of them are big in the marvel universe  green lantern yeah yeah green lantern what pilot he wore a uniform  i think he was a soldier give me this i don't think so that maybe you're  thinking of um seth rogen green hornet that's it yeah that's where you're getting completely  amazing in that but neither of us are seth rogen i did no you did green lantern  there was definitely green line right but in the big green lantern announcement they  named guy gardner as the lead of the show but i believe the idea is that it's supposed to be  more of an ensemble series with the other green lanterns that they're doing doing it is more of  a green lantern core series instead of a green  

lantern series that just built around one of them  if you're not super familiar with the actor you might remember him from american horror story or  other recent tv series but i'm excited to see what  he does with his version of guy gardner who's  basically known as the version of green lantern just super hardcore personality compared to  people like hal jordan jon stewart and the other earth-based green lanterns we know a lot  more about what's going on with the plot the characters that they're doing and how this is  weaving in with the other big dc projects going forward because they are still planning on doing  a green lantern core movie that i'll reference   during the video but the biggest stuff first  the green lanterns that they're doing include  sinestro guy gardner obviously as i just mentioned  alan scott jessica cruz simon baz kilwog and then  

a couple of original characters that they're  just introducing for the purposes of the show i know everyone's asking about diggle green  lantern from the arrowverse also talk about him during the video as well because they still have  to wrap up that storyline the biggest thing though obviously everyone noticed in this announcement  is in the roster of green lanterns they're doing for season one is there's no mention of how jordan  or jon stewart which seems weird that they would do so many of the bigger green lantern characters  but not the two biggest characters so it doesn't  mean that they won't appear on the show it just  sounds like they won't be main characters during season one but obviously you can't do these other  green lanterns without hal jordan existing without jon stewart existing so they do exist within the  universe the main reason why they're not starting  with them on the show is probably because they're  just saving them for the green lantern corps movie that is still happening no release date on that  yet probably gonna be at least another two or three years before we potentially see one also  part of the reason for them not doing jon stewart  

on the show in particular probably has something  to do with what happened with the green lantern during the justice league snyder cut i know a lot  of you were expecting to see green lantern court during the justice league snyder cut and zack  snyder had been hyping them up for a long time teasing that there would be green lantern stuff  happening during the film and we did see versions  of green lanterns like we did see the dead kill  log inside that nightmare flash forward sequence the potential future timelines that the mother  box shows cyborg so during the movie when they  show you this dead kill walk scene like superman  is basically floating over the remains of the justice league in the hall of justice as if he's  killed all them like he's holding batman's cow that was just meant to be one of the possible  futures as referenced by the kryptonian ship  

like you hear the voice of the ship telling them  not to proceed with their course of action because it will lead to something very terrible because  it's also extrapolating all these potential future  
nightmare outcomes but originally what the plan  was is that zack snyder was going to introduce the dceu version of green lantern that would have  then gone on to the green lantern corps movie the  
same way that he introduced the wonder woman  character in batman superman then she went  on to the first wonder woman film and then came  back and crossed over again same thing with ezra miller's version of the flash same thing with  cyborg all the other characters when he wound  

up leaving the project though things went into  turn around and they completely changed their plan for the future of dc movies this was all years  ago but apparently they still always planned doing a green lantern corps movie at some point  i've already done a video about the plot of the justice league sequels so i'll post a link for  that in the description but the whole idea is the   green lantern corps become much bigger characters  during justice league 2 and justice league 3.and eventually you do see them come in like the  cavalry during justice league 3 when they finally defeat darkseid it felt very much like the thanos  battle at the end of avengers end game where you  

have all these many avengers assembling to fight  thanos's army but then the idea was the green lanterns that zack snyder was going to introduce  would go on to their own space based movies and crossovers the same way that you have the  guardians of the galaxy in the marvel universe so  the deal this past week though with zack snyder's  version of green lantern and the justice league snyder cut is he actually filmed the green lantern  scene when he showed the studio the final version  of the snyder cut they made him take out the  green lanterns they're like you have to get rid of this or else we're not going to release this  movie so he wound up replacing his green lantern  
scene at the end of the film the end credit scene  with the martian manhunter scene which obviously is still very cool but it would have been very  cool to actually see a version of green lantern there was another idea i had for the green lantern  that wasn't ryan and so i thought that if we had  

gone down this path of green lantern i would  have had to have ryan as the additional lantern got it so it could have been maybe he would  have been there as well as other lanterns as well as another lantern that would have been  but that's another story now because the actor has been posting his scenes and zack snyder's  been talking about it we actually have a look at what that would have been so like i said it  would have been jon stewart and kilwog showing  
up to batman's lake house to warn him about what's  happening with darkseid the actor's name is wayne carr but the whole thing with him being the  jon stewart of the justice league snyder cut is that zack snyder added him during the additional  photography like he literally shot these scenes  in his backyard remember the nightmare scene with  batman and everyone in the future that's a brand new scene with the joker he shot that literally  in his backyard with a bunch of green screens so i think the idea is that originally if he would  have never left the project if things would have  gone according to plan it would have obviously  been a different actor i don't know if it would  

have always been jon stewart or if it would  have been hal jordan in the original version so because the studio made him get rid of this  green lantern scene in the snyder cut i'm assuming  
that this wayne car actor will not be playing jon  stewart or version of him in any future dc movies  but a little while ago they actually just  cancelled their new gods movie because it  was basically going to be a dark side film and  they said part of the reason was is they didn't  want to do a second version of darkseid so soon  after seeing a version of him in the snyder cut  so the theory is they didn't want zack snyder  doing a version of green lantern jon stewart  in his film because they have plans to do jon  stewart in something else coming up pretty soon  but for the green lantern corps hbo series they  didn't say exactly how they're going to handle the timeline because alan scott is also meant to  be a really big character and he's the golden age  green lantern so he'd either have to be really old  in present day or they have to change some of the continuity a little bit and it doesn't sound like  they're going to do that like they'll have some way of referencing that he is one of the original  green lanterns on earth although technically  jalan gur from the justice league snyder cut is  the original green lantern of this sector of space  

obviously he's not from earth he's an alien but  when he's killed by dark side here the really cool connection to alan scott is that his body  basically became part of the star heart this  weapon that the green lantern corps was making  the star heart itself became alan scott's green  lantern battery and told him how to fashion his  own green lantern ring and even though sinestro is probably gonna wind up becoming the main villain  because we're talking about season one and this  natural progression of the characters i think the  version of sinestro that we see during season one  
won't be full-blown villain he'll probably still  be a green lantern corps version of the character before he becomes a yellow lantern but i would  love if they can actually work themselves up  to the sinestro core i think the idea is that the  show could run five to seven seasons they would do all that storyline it just feels like the natural  progression of those characters in that universe  

james gunn is doing a suicide squad hbo series  spin-off from the movie and matt reeves is doing a batman hbo series spin-off from his batman movie  both of them will involve characters that show up during the films coming to the tv shows it's  just like marvel's disney plus series like the loki series is getting ready to do episodes tom  hiddleston is the main character as a different  version of loki many different versions of loki  so i think the same thing is going to be true with  this green lantern series even though they don't  talk about how jordan or jon stewart during season one will eventually see some of these green  lantern people show up during whatever future green lantern core movie they wind up doing they  did tie the movies to the tv shows or at least the arrowverse with that ezra miller and grant gustin  crossover scene so technically all the arrowverse  

stuff is canon so a lot of you are like does that  mean the diggle is going to show up during the green lantern hbo series i think we eventually see  more diggle green lantern stuff we'll see them pay that off on the superman tv show or the current  aeroverse tv shows whenever they get to their next big crossover everyone just let me know in the  comments which other characters and storylines do you want them to do during the green lantern  hbo series it sounds like that's going to premiere   sometime after the peacemaker series maybe like  spring next year i've got a whole bunch of dc and  marvel videos that i'm working on i'll try to post  those as soon as possible everyone click here for  that brand new marvel loki trailer video and click  here for my falcon and winter soldier finale post  credit scene video thank you so much for watching  everyone stay safe and i'll see you guys.
