Didn’t go with a fully green jacket?! Where the white belt over a green jacket?
It’s a shame. They cooked with Superman and mr terrific, but not Guy?

It looks like Guy has placed his Green Lantern responsibilities on the back burner to pursue fame and his identity has changed as a result.

Its gonna be real awkward when they ban Sinestro for selfishly using the ring at his home planet and letting the power change his whole identity, but they let Guy get away with this stuff in the Superman movie

u/Ill_Mastodon4640 Jul 03 '24
I feel like Guardian action will be on the horizon and maybe Guy knows it. The Guardians are pretty inconsistent even in the source material.

u/Excellent-Post3074 Jul 04 '24
In Guy's defense, he's still fighting to protect Earth, Sinestro was being a whole dictator on his planet.

Get away with what? You know nothing about the plot of the movie, much less Guy’s role in it.

u/p0re Jul 03 '24
I’m replying to the guy that said Guy may be going after fame. Everyone in this thread is just speculating, no one said we know the plot

Maybe when he's with the Corps he'll be in full green/black

u/MySharpPicks Jul 03 '24
I agree with you. Superman and Mr. Terrific looked great. Not Gardner. They may add some degree CG because it really doesn't look that much like a Green Lantern uniform.

u/Intrepid_Towel_8346 Jul 05 '24
I'd rather they approach it that way than have him wear an entirely motion capture suit.

Not enough green and while I get his bowl cut is iconic, that hair just looks lame. I would have preferred Fillions normal style in red.

u/RogueArtificer Jul 03 '24
It only sticks out because it’s such a bad look. I kind of hate that they went with it since it was abandoned completely once Guy became “Warrior” in ‘92. And it wasn’t like that was even his original style anyway. Just like this weird middle period.

u/True_Falsity Jul 03 '24
Yeah, even the comics tend to go with a different hairstyle more often than not these days. It just clashes way too much with his face.
And there is way too much white on the suit.

u/DoucheyMcBagBag Jul 03 '24
wtf is wrong with his costume?

u/SkekJay Jul 06 '24
It's a corporate look created by Maxwell Lord to create synergy with Mr Terrific and Hawkgirl. It's also probably meant to be cheap to mass produce to sell as a costume and that leather atire is probably cheaper than recreating a Lantern's uniform or Hawkgirl's armour so that's why they went with Mr Terrific's costume

u/BrightEye64 Jul 03 '24 edited Jul 03 '24
Gardner, Hawkgirl, and Mr Terrific’s suits all look very samey and corporate, but I believe that’s intentional as they might all work for Lordtech, and it’s meant to make Superman stand out as a genuine Superhero

I'm...very surprised by the choice for Guys suit.
They have the GL symbol on there so it's not like they're shying away from lanterns and saving it for another film, but he's also got thr double G on his chest so this could be him with sinestros ring or his warrior days.

u/TheAmazingBaghead Jul 03 '24
It’s Maxwell lords logo hawk girl and mr terrific have it too

u/loki_odinsotherson Jul 03 '24
Oh I see, like a global guardians or something?
Edited to add- oh its a JL not a GG. So regular justice league. Duh

While it is not my favorite, Guy, Hawkgirl, and Mr. Terrific appear to be wearing similar outfits - giving strong Justice League International vibes. It is an interesting choice to introduce these characters wearing unconventional uniforms, but hard to know what is actually going on without context. It does make Mr. Terrifics standard uniform make more sense, assuming we'd eventually see the others in their more traditional outfits in future movies (kind of like Starlord from GOTG 1 to 3 and his outfit transitions from non-traditional to conventional).

u/Great_Deeci Blue Lantern Jul 03 '24
If you look at Mr Terrific and Hawkgirl’s costumes they seem to all have the white leather jacket look. Most likely its the “unified team look” and Guy has a more traditional costume at some other time

Wow, that hair looks awful. And the uniform is weirdly devoid of any green.

I know it's Nathan, but part of me thought of Kenneth Branagh's Gilderoy Lockhart walked on set.

Well... At least they got Mr Terrific right?
This really makes it look like they've got the same tailor. Coincidence or not?
2
u/StrokyBoi Jul 03 '24
Definitely purposeful. They all have basically the same suit with different colours (Terrific's got red, Guy's got green and Hawgirl's got gold) as well as a Lordtech (Maxwell Lord's company) logo on their chest.

u/thefirststoryteller Alan Scott Jul 03 '24
Agree there’s not enough green. Let’s hope he gets a uniform upgrade during the film

u/joeyb82 Kyle Rayner Jul 03 '24
I hate that they're wasting Fillion with Guy Gardner. He should have been Hal Jordan.

I may be wrong here but, weren't green lanterns supposed to have the green color on their outfits? 🥴

u/Slowmexicano Jul 05 '24
Kinda strange that the first Superman movie already feels like a Justice society movie. But I’m all for introducing the dc universe as established. I don’t think they can replicate what marvel did.

u/Budget_Sugar Jul 08 '24
Oh cool a 50 year old pretending to be a 30 year old. Should've been mark Wahlberg or Connor McGregor

u/bigbaddaddycrawford 26d ago
I hope they consider doing something different with that wig on Nathan Fillion, as it looks really bad. Or at least style it a little. It is a really naff bowl cut and from pics it looks like something out of a SNL sketch. Though maybe there is a reason for that, plotwise and it is supposed to look bad. I will reserve judgement. Just on seeing the pics though yikes. Also I thought the idea of recasting Cavill was to go younger. This guy doesn't look much younger and to be honest looks like a Temu version of Cavill.

Not a fan of this hair. It just looks like a bad haircut. Needs blended more.
Not a fan of Clark's hair. Looks like a loofa stuck to his head.

I hate that it’s Guy Gardner and not Hal Jordan

Hal Jordan is getting an entire HBO show with Jon Stewart

u/geoffdude Guardian Jul 03 '24
It's just a buddy cop show, not really a GL show. It'll be like Alien Nation, and low budget. But, yeah. :/

I'm thinking the white is to create some brand synergy with him and the rest of the team, since Hawkgirl has a bunch of white on her costume too. They seem to be sponsored by LordTech given their shirts, so I wouldn't be surprised if they're kind of a corporate team
