Looks good so far! Cool that we see John get some love outside of the comics since Hal has mostly been the most prominent Lantern recently.

Oh, and here’s the synopsis and release date from the YouTube page:

In Green Lantern: Beware My Power, recently discharged Marine sniper John Stewart is at a crossroads in his life, one which is only complicated by receiving an extraterrestrial ring which grants him the powers of the Green Lantern of Earth. Unfortunately, the ring doesn’t come with instructions - but it does come with baggage, like a horde of interplanetary killers bent on eliminating every Green Lantern in the universe. Now, with the aid of the light-hearted Green Arrow, Adam Strange and Hawkgirl, this reluctant soldier must journey into the heart of a galactic Rann/Thanagar war and somehow succeed where all other Green Lanterns have failed. The film’s Supervising Producer is Butch Lukic.

Green Lantern: Beware My Power is available on 4K, Blu-ray & Digital starting July 26, 2022.

Not sure about the cast yet. The guy playing John sounds so familiar, but I can’t place where…

I somehow completely missed this was coming out, so I’m very excited now. Thanks for sharing!

Same here – I remember seeing the title announced back in last year’s Fandome, but didn’t think about it much until this. It’s nice to see this announced not far off before it’s released.

Yeah, the name does sound familiar, but I don’t think I really realized what it was.

Awesome™ was wondering which lantern they’d use for it. Exited it my favorite lantern John.

From McFarlane Toys, to Spin Master, Mego and more, he’s been getting a lot of toy and collectible love outside of the comics as well.

The movie looks good! Its about time we got another animated GL flick.

MatthewHecht · May 5, 2022, 1:25am

Especially since First Flight was so great.

Vroom · May 5, 2022, 1:25am

That, and Emerald Knights was the best GL movie of 2011.

MatthewHecht · May 5, 2022, 1:26am

I never liked Emerald Knights, but I hate segment movies. I credit that as it just not being my cup of tea.

Vroom · May 5, 2022, 1:27am

Totally fine. We all like what we like.

I dig anthology movies and TV shows (especially The Twilight Zone), and Emerald Knights was no exception.

Trailer looks pretty cool! I’m all for John getting more of a spotlight, and it’s also great that this looks to be a sort of JL movie as well. I recognized a couple voices here, even if just vaguely, so hopefully the full cast gets released soon. Ultimately I’m just hoping this will be the kind of movie I can really get into since I haven’t quite gotten there w/ any of the movies in this new animation style

mercurie80 · May 5, 2022, 3:07am

Oh, I am really looking forward to this!

Bar-El · May 5, 2022, 3:25pm

This looks AMAZING!!

TaimurDar · May 5, 2022, 6:27pm

Looks like Aldis Hodge who plays Hawkman in Black Adam is voicing John Stewart!

zulmara5.38205 · May 5, 2022, 6:31pm

It doesn’t actually look bad. Will it be on HBO Max?

MatthewHecht · May 5, 2022, 6:57pm

In a few months.

moro · May 5, 2022, 7:33pm

These animated DC movies are great. Wish DC would give them bigger budgets.

MatthewHecht · May 5, 2022, 9:47pm

I do not. Bigger budgets mean more executive meddling. Smaller budgets give the creators more freedom to do what they want.

moro · May 5, 2022, 9:54pm

Good point. I guess they don’t have to go Pixar level productions. Giving the creative teams the ability to flesh out the art and backgrounds a little bit more, along with some extra run time would go a long way in making them shine even more.
