Superman continues to be making headlines lengthy after the premiere date, and I believe it is protected to say there is a new Man of Metal operating DC’s future. With doubtlessly 4 motion pictures to get to know David Corwenswet’s hero, it additionally means another heroes shall be alongside for the journey. Nathan Fillion’s Man Gardner, for instance, and that goofy wig he has to put on.
James Gunn was delighted to speak about that wig when talking at San Diego Comedian-Con, and guaranteed that he will hold the Inexperienced Lantern star round and in tasks as a lot as he can. In fact, he joked that a part of it’s as a result of he likes seeing him within the “silly” wig he has to put on. Try the clip, which CinemaBlend captured in the course of the Peacemaker Season 2 panel:
What’s humorous to me is that James Gunn made that joke, absolutely figuring out that he meant to have Man Gardner seem in Peacemaker Season 2. The season premiere served as a approach of retconning Zack Snyder’s unique DCEU, which can be why he did not outright announce the cameo can be occurring at San Diego Comedian-Con.
With solely so many heroes concerned within the DCU, I suppose it tracks that Nathan Fillion might need to put on his “silly” Man Gardner wig to look in quite a lot of upcoming superhero motion pictures if referred to as upon to take action. It actually looks as if the actor is recreation to do extra motion pictures, and even pitched a detective-style thriller film to CinemaBlend.
Regardless that I wasn’t a fan of how James Gunn modified the hair coloration of the Inexperienced Lantern, I’ve to concede that he was probably the greatest components of the Superman film. In a world the place we’re compelled to attend and see whether or not there shall be a Mr. Terrific standalone franchise, I am going to accept seeing Nathan Fillion taking part in Man Gardner and ushering in different members of the Lantern Corps to correctly construct that universe.
It is a good factor, then, that we already know Fillion will return because the hero within the Lanterns collection, set for these with an HBO Max subscription someday in 2026. That mentioned, the present just isn’t centered on his character and is meant to introduce the viewers to James Gunn’s variations of the well-known Inexperienced Lanterns, Hal Jordan and John Stewart. I’d assume neither of them must put on wigs, although they could want a bald cap.
Superman‘s theatrical run continues to be ongoing, although given how shortly motion pictures head to streaming today, one can think about it will not be lengthy earlier than we see it pop up on HBO Max. Readers can stick to CinemaBlend as we proceed to have fun it and await information of what else is on the way in which for the DCU, a few of which can be teased in Peacemaker Season 2.
