James Gunn Makes Zack Snyder’s Dream Come True, Seems to Confirm Green Lantern is Coming to DCU

Zack Snyder’s vision of uniting the Seven could finally come true. In a Thanksgiving Day tweet, DC Studios co-head James Gunn seemingly confirmed the Green Lantern’s inclusion in the DCU. However, the happy news is just an extension of the dream that has haunted the fandom for years since 2017. Justice League.

James Gunn’s current approach to rebuilding the DC canon in a holistic sense can only mean good things for the future of the franchise, and it looks like the pieces are already starting to fall into place. It only remains to be seen how far into the new DCU’s reconstruction the Seven will be able to claim their place at the table as regulars instead of cameos or Easter eggs.

Zack Snyder’s work on the Justice League The film was cut short on its first attempt when the director had to take time off to grieve and mourn the death of his young daughter. Upon his return, his audience who had been promised a masterpiece found the 2021 Snyder’s Cut doing justice to the loss of vision served in the film’s theatrical cut. However, a few aspects of Snyder’s plan were kept intact by Joss Whedon in his 2017 Justice League and one of those things was the inclusion of Green Lantern Yalan Gur in a flashback to the past war.

The thread connecting the Corps to the DC Universe was lost in the aftermath of the controversy, and Snyder’s Cut could do anything but promise the resurrection of a broken DCEU. David Zaslav’s tough but necessary entry soon after proved the Warner Bros. chief. Discovery could take the necessary steps to ensure the reform of the DC Universe, and its appointed DC Studios head, James Gunn, is now executing the vision that was lost half a decade ago. Even as fans celebrate the legacy of Snyder and his trilogy to date, James Gunn has proven himself in the short time since his coronation ceremony. His cryptic tweet about the long-awaited coming of the Green Lanterns to the DCU is definitive proof of that.

If the excitement surrounding the Green Lantern’s indirect confirmation is any indication, the fandom has already accepted the news as a definitive teaser of what’s to come. However, the chronology still remains very uncertain.

As happy as the news is to witness a reunited Justice League on screen, it may be a little longer before the dream can finally come true.
