Lanterns

HBO Max announced in January 2023 that plans for a Green Lantern series produced by Greg Berlanti had been dropped, and the service would instead focus on the announced Lanterns series from James Gunn and Peter Safran. Announced back in 2019, Berlanti's Green Lantern series was originally said to "span several decades and focus on the origin stories of two major Green Lanterns on Earth," and also feature the villain Sinestro. That was changed in late 2022 when it was announced it would instead only focus on Lantern John Stewart. Gunn and Safran's series instead features both John Stewart and Hal Jordan. Gunn described the series as "more of a True Detective (2014)-type mystery. A terrestrial-based mystery that leads into the overall story that we're telling throughout the different movies and television shows [in the DC Universe]. We find this ancient horror on Earth, and these guys are basically super-cops on 'Precinct Earth.'"

A power ring briefly forms the "N" in the series title.
