10 Villains Who Need To Be Introduced Into The DC Cinematic Universe
10. Sinestro
The Green Lantern mythology is as expansive as any in the DC Universe, and one villain is, more often than not, at the centre of any major events in the world of the Lanterns. Sinestro.
Once viewed as the greatest Green Lantern of them all, Thaal Sinestro was Hal Jordan's partner in the Green Lantern Corp in his early days, before turning his back on the intergalactic peace-keepers, and embracing the yellow light of fear, and establishing the Sinestro Corps to take down the Green Lanterns. This led to the huge event known as 'The Sinestro Corps War', in which the Green and Yellow Lanterns battled all over the galaxy in a violent war that saw many Lanterns killed in combat.
Having been portrayed already on-screen by Mark Strong in 2011's cinematic flop 'Green Lantern', a new depiction of Sinestro would give casual fans a better look at what Hal Jordan's greatest villain is all about, and could allow for an eventual on-screen telling of the Sinestro Corps War. With 'Green Lantern Corps' scheduled to be released in cinemas in 2020, and Green Lantern heavily rumoured to appear in Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, could we see an all-new Sinestro on the big screen sooner rather than later?
