>Split narrative between Alan Scott in the 40s, Guy Gardner and Bree Jarta in the 80s, and Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz in the 2020s.
>Overarching storyline about the fall of Sinestro.
>40s segment follows Alan becoming the first human Green Lantern and protecting the world while struggling with his homosexuality. Abin Sur, Kilowog and Rot Lop Fan also appear.
>80s segment follows Guy and Bree investigating the Dominators as they assemble the Alien Alliance and execute a series of coordinated attacks across the universe. Sinestro, Kilowog and Arisia also appear.
>2010s segment follows Jessica and Simon fighting the Manhunters, who have kidnapped the Guardians of the Universe. Kilowog, Tomar-Re, Katma Tui and Mogo also appear.
>Sinestro is the leader of the Green Lantern Corps in the 80s, but the Guardians exile him after he subjugates his homeworld Korugar in a misguided attempted to protect it.
>Hal Jordan is referenced as Sinestro’s human partner in the 80s, but doesn’t actually appear because WB was saving him and John Stewart for a movie.
>The Manhunters want revenge against the Guardians because the Guardians abandoned them after they malfunctioned and massacred sector 666.
>Jessica and Simon encounter the Indigo Tribe and discover that the Manhunters were actually reprogrammed by the Mad Guardian Krona.
>The season would end with Jessica and Simon fighting Krona, who causes a “temporal imbalance” transporting Alan, Guy and Bree to the 2010s in season 2.

Jeremy Irvine, Finn Wittrock and Tobias Menzies had been cast as Alan Scott, Guy Gardner and Sinestro respectively before the project got Zaslav'd for being too expensive.

OP's project is not to be confused with James Gunn's upcoming True Detective-lite Green Lantern HBO show, which is a completely separate thing.

The cancelled show is practically True Detective-lite, you stupid fuck.

I just wanted Tobias Menzies as Sinestro. Ideal casting.

Are brutish ginger actors simply too hard to come by?

I don't think I've seen a ginger in person for about four years. I think they're all gone now.

anon, you do realize that this cancelled Green Lantern show WAS True Detective-lite, right? Not a separate thing. And anyway, this sounds like a shitty idea, and it's also proof that Gunn is a shitty writer

There's nothing True Detective-ish in OP's version aside from following three sets of Green Lantern partners and having a split narrative, none of which were created or are closely associated with True Detective anyway.

The guy from the Real O'Neal's sitcom would have been a good Guy as far as a comedy, who would just need to work out enough to get rid of the baby fat. A young Damien Lewis would have been a great guy and the guy who played Not Joker in Gotham would as well.

There are plenty of even non-UK red heads, you all are just a bunch of idiots who need to get out more.

fuckable actors appeal to both guys and girls in the audience, anon
