Arrowverse producer Greg Berlanti is helping to launch HBO's streaming service with a pair of new superhero shows.
It's been announced that one of the HBO Max series will be based on DC's interplanetary hero The Green Lantern, while the second is an anthology project titled Strange Adventures that'll explore "close-ended morality tales about the intersecting lives of mortals and super-humans".

Although no details were confirmed regarding the Green Lantern show, Berlanti did have this to say: "Both of these original DC properties we'll be creating for HBO Max will be unlike anything seen on television.
"An anthology series of cautionary tales set in a world where superpowers exist, and, in what promises to be our biggest DC show ever made, we will be going to space with a Green Lantern television series, but I can't reveal any more about that just yet."
Consider our interest well and truly piqued.

Meanwhile, the last we heard of a Green Lantern Corps movie was in July 2018, when writer Geoff Johns teased a "complete reimagining" of the popular character, following Ryan Reynolds' much maligned big-screen adaptation.
Arrow season 8 airs on Tuesdays at 9/8c on The CW in the US. In the UK, it airs on Sky One and NOW TV.
