10 DC Movie Easter Eggs And Setups That Led Nowhere

7. Star Sapphire Foreshadowing - Green Lantern

Green Lantern again, and the sequel setups in the movie weren't restricted to the post-credits. This one is more a case of subtle foreshadowing and it concerns the path of Blake Lively's character Carol Ferris.

In the comic books, Green Lantern's love interest becomes Star Sapphire when a race of immortal warrior women chooses her to become the host body for their queen, which results in her gaining similar powers to Hal Jordan.

The film hints at her transformation during the scene where Ferris is operating an aircraft. On her pilot's helmet is a purple decal depicting the star-shaped symbol she later adopts when she acquires superpowers. No doubt Green Lantern 2 would have seen both Sinestro and Ferris taking on new personas if it had gone ahead.
