DCEU: 10 Things We Learned From 4Chan's Latest DC Movies "Leak"
6. Alfonso Cuaron Is In Talks To Direct Green Lantern Corps
The Rumour
Gravity director Alfonso Cuaron has been lined up as the man to revive the Green Lantern movie franchise.
Response
If it's true, it would be a hell of a coup for DC. Cuaron might not have done a great deal recently, but his last credit as director won him an Oscar, so it's not bad going.
The question though is how Cuaron would fit into the DCEU. He famously made the darkest (but best) Harry Potter movie, so he knows how to slot into someone else's series, but his penchant for darker material might be a little at odds with Warner Bros' attempts to balance Zack Snyder's glumness with levity.
But then maybe Cuaron is exactly the kind of film-maker who defies the need to do such things. Maybe he can balance his film as Snyder couldn't. Maybe he's the hero the Corps deserves AND needs.
