As somebody who’s been a Inexperienced Lantern fan for over 15 years and was extremely let down by the Inexperienced Lantern film, I’ve been intrigued by the upcoming DC TV present Lanterns, which is able to delve into the Inexperienced Lantern mythology within the DC Universe franchise. Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre will respectively star as Hal Jordan and John Stewart, however each casting that’s been introduced since then as involved brand-new characters. That’s, till right this moment, because it’s been revealed that Lanterns has solid its Sinestro, and I’m excited to see this baddie antagonize Hal and John within the DC Universe.
Ulrich Thomsen from The Blacklist and Counterpart has been chosen to play Thaal Sinestro in Lanterns, per Deadline. Thomsen would be the second actor to play Sinestro in live-action, following Mark Sturdy in 2011’s Inexperienced Lantern. Just like his comedian e book counterpart, Thomsen’s Sinestro is described as “ruthless but undeniably charming,” and his “manipulative nature drives his enduring obsession along with his former mentee, Hal Jordan.”
