Animated Green Lantern Show Gets Production & Plot Update
A casting call for shares some new plot information about the animated DC series. It was announced in February 2025 that a My Adventures with Green Lantern show was in development from DC Studios and Warner Bros. Animation. The show is said to be 'younger-skewing' and was announced at the same time as two other DC animated shows: DC Super Powers and Starfire. Shortly after the announcement, executive producer Jake Wyatt confirmed that the show will be set in the same universe as My Adventures with Superman, which premiered on Adult Swim in 2023 and features Jack Quaid as the voice of Clark Kent. 'My Adventures with Green Lantern will follow high school student Jessica Cruz, who has her life upended when a Green Lantern Power Ring falls from the sky and chooses Cruz to be its champion. Things get even worse when more debris from the Lanterns' ancient space war arrives – along with their alien foes,' the logline for the show reads. What is the My Adventures With Green Lantern update? Per Knight Edge Media, a casting call has gone out for the Jessica Cruz role. DC is looking for someone 18 or older to play the character, who will be between the ages of 14 and 15. 'This role will sing in the series, looking for talent who can sing. Jessica had a normal childhood: she played softball, hung out with her best friends Kyle and Nikki, and stayed out of trouble,' the casting call further reads. 'But Jess' life collapsed when everyone around her hit puberty and got mean. Betrayed by friends and bullied out of softball, Jess withdrew. Better to be small and safe than to be yourself and get hurt. We meet Jess at the top of high school: a chronically anxious freshman who starts the year hoping to keep her head down and get by…but who ends up being chosen by a magic ring to be the cosmic champion of all life – the Green Lantern. Despite her fear, anxiety, and her low opinion of herself, Jess will find that she does have the tenacity and courage to meet this challenge, to become the world's greatest hero.' A premiere date for My Adventures with Green Lantern has not yet been announced. Originally reported by Brandon Schreur at SuperHeroHype.

Spider-Punk Is Getting His Own Movie in Sony's SPIDER-VERSE Universe — GeekTyrant
Spider-Punk is officially stepping out of the multiverse and into the spotlight. Sony Pictures Animation is developing a spin-off movie centered on the fan-favorite Spider-Man variant Hobie Brown, who made his big-screen debut in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse . Daniel Kaluuya, who voiced the character in the film, is not only returning to voice the character, but he is also co-writing the new project with Ajon Singh. According to Deadline, the movie is still in early development, and plot details are being kept tightly under wraps. There's no confirmation yet on whether other Spider-Verse characters will appear. Created by Dan Slott and Olivier Coipel, Spider-Punk first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #10 in 2015. This version of Hobie Brown hails from Earth-138 and brings a rebellious edge to the Spider-Man mythos. He's an anarchist who battles authoritarian regimes, wields an electric guitar, and isn't afraid to smash the system—literally. Kaluuya's performance in Across the Spider-Verse brought a unique voice and swagger to the character, making him an instant fan-favorite character in a packed ensemble. It makes sense to give the character his own movie! While there's no release date yet, it's safe to assume Spider-Punk's solo outing won't hit theaters until after Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse , which is currently set to arrive June 25, 2027. Beyond the Spider-Verse will pick up after the cliffhanger ending of Across the Spider-Verse , with Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) stranded on Earth-42 and face-to-face with an alternate version of himself who has become the Prowler, voiced by Jharrel Jerome. The third film will also bring back Hailee Steinfeld as Gwen Stacy, Jason Schwartzman as The Spot, and Karan Soni as Pavitr Prabhakar. Get ready for some punk rock Spidey chaos!

James Gunn and Zack Snyder Clash Over SUPERMAN in RICK AND MORTY - 'Do More Shots of Him Punching' — GeekTyrant
The latest Rick and Morty episode, 'Ricker Than Fiction,' throws Superman filmmakers James Gunn and Zack Snyder into animated chaos and lets them roast each other in the process. They actually voiced themselves in the episode and the creative jabs were just as pointed as you'd hope. In the episode, Rick and Morty march into Warner Bros. to air their frustrations over Maximum Velocitree, their favorite movie franchise. Cue some well-timed corporate satire and a cafeteria run-in with Gunn and Snyder—animated versions. That's where the quote from Snyder drops, which lighting up social media: 'Just saw your new cut of Superman, and word of advice, he's the 'Man of Steel,' not the 'Man of Conversation.' Do more shots of him punching!' That's Snyder poking fun at Gunn's take on Superman with a not-so-subtle nod to his own action-heavy style. He even gives Gunn an impromptu explainer on slow motion. Both filmmakers recorded their lines together, that viral behind the scenes photo was taken after they recorded their lines, and according to Rick and Morty executive producer Scott Marder, they were all-in from the start. He told Variety: 'They were good sports. Both of those guys sort of implied that this is the show they watch when they have downtime. So they were thrilled to get to be a part of the world, and there was no pushback or bristling.' If anything, Gunn and Snyder were ready to lean into the absurdity. 'There were probably, frankly, even more digs and more silly things we could have used. All they did was laugh it off.' The idea to include them came naturally once the writers knew they'd be skewering Hollywood. 'We were like, if we're going to do a movie and we're going skewer Hollywood, we feel like we have to include our bosses. So we started thinking about Warner Bros. Who'd be a good face to be kind of the villain here? James Gunn just seemed like such a good choice.' Gunn, even in the middle of Superman production, jumped at the opportunity. 'He not only did he respond instantly with a yes, but I think he ran it up the chain at Warner Bros. that same day,' Marder said. 'We had people on our production side who were like, 'How is it that James Gunn and Zaslav and all these people already know about this episode?' We didn't think it would actually move this quickly.' Snyder brought that same energy. Marder added: 'I direct all the voices, so I directed both those guys. Snyder left, and he came back like a fan, saying, 'I'll do anything for the show. Throw me a tag. Throw me a thing.'' The result is a short but fun scene where two of the biggest minds behind Superman get hilariously self-aware in the most Rick and Morty way possible.
