Since James Gunn announced his departure from DC Studios, fans have expressed concerns about the future of several DCU projects. One of the biggest concerns appears to be the future of Lanterns Season 2.
Fans have taken to social media to express their concerns. Although Gunn and Safran are expected to remain creatively involved with DC for the next few years, the future of several projects remains uncertain.
Reacting to Variety’s report, @JPhrygian said, “Yeah, I don’t think we’re getting that season 2 of Lantern.” @LCyance was similarly skeptical about whether DC Studios would renew the Aaron Pierre-led show for another season. They said, “Well, no season 2 of Lanterns probably.”
@cdiggi1 wrote, “Wow…so much for Lanterns Season 2,” amid online discussions about whether the show should receive a sophomore season. @Tugssquirrel commented, “RIP James Gunn. RIP Lanterns Season 2. RIP Royalties.”
Lanterns took a different approach to the Green Lantern mythos, earning praise from some fans. However, some fans were disappointed that the show did not feature more aliens or explore the Green Lantern mythology in space. Given Gunn’s creative influence on the show, some fans are skeptical about its chances of receiving a second season under the new leadership.
What was Lanterns Season 2’s status before James Gunn’s departure?
According to earlier reports, Season 2 of Lanterns was in early development. No official announcement was made by DC Studios about whether the show would return for a second season before James Gunn’s exit.
The creator of Lanterns, Damon Lindelof, said, “I can only tell you that everybody in the Season 1 room, inclusive of the writers who are working on ideating on Season 2, felt like even though we knew that it was going to be emotionally devastating and/or disappointing and maybe even frustrating.”
While Lindelof’s comments suggested that early discussions about Season 2 were underway, he did not reveal what the next installment might explore. With John Stewart expected to appear in James Gunn’s Man of Tomorrow, the timing of a potential second season of Lanterns remains uncertain.
