See DC’s James Gunn Show Love For Nathan Fillion’s ‘Stupid’ Guy Gardner Wig

The movie “Superman” continues to garner attention even past its premiere date, leading me to believe a fresh embodiment of Superman is steering DC Comics’ future course. With the possibility of four upcoming films, we might be introduced to David Corwenswet’s character more extensively. Alongside this new hero, it seems other heroes will be joining the journey as well. For instance, Nathan Fillion’s character Guy Gardner may make an appearance, along with the peculiar wig he’s known for wearing.

At San Diego Comic-Con, James Gunn expressed his joy in discussing the unique wig, and made it clear that he intends to incorporate the Green Lantern actor more frequently in future projects. Jokingly, he added that one reason for this is his amusement at seeing him don the “silly” wig he must wear. Take a look at the video clip, which TopMob recorded during the Peacemaker Season 2 discussion:

It’s amusing that James Gunn made that joke, considering he planned for Guy Gardner to appear in Peacemaker Season 2. The season opener seems to have set up a sort of continuity adjustment, or retcon, regarding Zack Snyder’s initial DC Extended Universe (DCEU), which might explain why he didn’t openly reveal the cameo at San Diego Comic-Con.

One Of Superman’s Funniest Lines Apparently Wasn’t In The Script

In the DC Universe, where there are limited hero roles available, it’s quite possible that Nathan Fillion may need to don his “unconventional” Guy Gardner wig for several upcoming superhero films if asked. It appears that the actor is open to taking on more projects, and he has even proposed a detective-style mystery movie idea to TopMob.

Despite not favoring James Gunn’s modification of Green Lantern’s hair color, I must admit he was one of the highlights in the Superman movie. In a scenario where we’re left hanging about a solo Mr. Terrific film, I’d be content with Nathan Fillion portraying Guy Gardner and introducing other members of the Lantern Corps to establish that universe more thoroughly.

It’s great news indeed that Nathan Fillion will reprise his role as the hero in the upcoming “Lanterns” series on HBO Max in 2026. However, it’s important to note that the show isn’t solely focused on his character. Instead, it aims to introduce James Gunn’s interpretations of the renowned Green Lanterns, Hal Jordan and John Stewart. It’s likely they won’t need wigs, but they might require bald caps to accurately portray their appearances.

The cinematic journey of Superman remains active, but considering how swiftly films often transition to streaming services these days, it’s likely just a matter of time before he appears on HBO Max. Readers are invited to stay tuned with TopMob as we continue the celebration and eagerly await updates regarding future offerings in the DCU, some potential hints of which might be dropped during Season 2 of Peacemaker.
