Although Green Lantern will include a host of well-established Green Lantern characters including Guy Gardner, Simon Baz, and Jessica Cruz, a new name has arisen.
In their research, a character called Bree Jarta is used as a code name for the rumored black female character. As a half-human and half-alien lantern, it seems she’s going to have to struggle with those various personalities.
There are also hints that she will be working with Gardner throughout the season, and that will offer some comfort to long-time Lantern fans. (It should be remembered that TheDirect.com states that this is not a freshly minted Lantern Sojourner Mullein.)
From comicbook.com:
Writer/producer Marc Guggenheim talked about the structure of the show, he likened it to a TV program with the production values of a feature film. That should really energize fans headed into next year.
“I happen to believe — and this is not a universally-held opinion — that you can’t do a ten-hour show or an eight-episode show, like an 8-hour movie,” Guggenheim said during a Comic-Con International panel. “I don’t think that works. When I see it done, there’s always some flabby episodes in the middle.
I think you have to approach it like a TV series and approach each episode like its own entity. Even though it’s streaming, even though hopefully people will binge it, you’ve got to make each episode a satisfying meal.
