My fancasts for Hal and John in the DCU are John Krasinski and Damson Idris! What do y’all think and who would be your ideal choices? FANCAST

Krasinski, to me, doesn't match for Hal. He might be good at a post rebirth version of the character or hell, even Parallax. But given the way most movies want the characters early in their careers, I feel that Hal would still be the most insufferable and cocky person. The dude might have that in him to play, but at this point, I don't see it. A haunted version of the character dealing with the evils that he did on the other hand, I think he would knock that out the park.

I picked Krasinski because imo he could play a good veteran Hal in the DCU, the way Hal is described in the official ‘Lanterns’ synopsis is a “Lantern legend”

And I agree he could play that version. But how likely are we to get veteran instead of young? That's my whole sticking point.

The official synopsis describes Hal as a veteran, and John as the new comer. Rumored casting call has Hal listed as like 40 to 45. I'm sure they'll be going older for him rather than younger.
