What will happen to “Lanterns” after James Gunn’s departure? The showrunner weighed in on the chances for a second season
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Even the creators of the series do not yet know what to expect from the new leadership of DC Studios.
Chris Mundy, co-creator and showrunner of “Lanterns,” shared how the leadership change at DC Studios might impact the future of the series. During a promotional event for the project, a journalist from The Playlist asked him whether the departure of James Gunn and Peter Safran would speed up the launch of a second season. In response, Mundy compared the chances of a renewal to a coin toss:
“We thought everything had settled down after the merger. I can totally see everyone just going to their corners now. And from there, it’s just how the coin lands. Fifty-fifty.”
Despite the uncertainty, Mundy and the HBO Max team have already assembled writers to work on the second season, although there is no official renewal order yet. The situation may become clearer after December 1, when Jeremy Latcham takes over the leadership of DC Studios. For now, it remains unknown whether he will support the further development of “Lanterns” or if their light will go out.
