DC has finally cast its gay Green Lantern, with British actor Jeremy Irvine playing Alan Scott in a new series.
Irvine announced on Instagram that he’ll be starring in the new live-action TV series from HBO Max, which will portray the classic superhero as gay.
“Very excited to be joining the DC Universe!! Can’t wait to get started,” Irvine wrote, adding the oath of the Lantern Corps: “In brightest day, in blackest night/ No evil shall escape my sight/ Let those who worship evil’s might/ Beware my power – Green Lantern’s light!”
