Overview
- The series pairs veteran Hal Jordan with new recruit John Stewart to investigate a killing in the American heartland with a True Detective‑style, buddy‑cop dynamic.
- Chris Mundy says the story unfolds across different time periods, showing the protagonists at multiple points in their lives while keeping their cores consistent.
- He confirms the show will not adapt a single comic storyline, aiming instead for portrayals true to Hal and John within a new narrative.
- Mundy details that John Stewart’s ring constructs draw on his Marine and architect background, shaping how his powers are visualized and used.
- HBO is planning a 2026 premiere without a specific date, and interpretations that Hal could step aside are speculative despite the show’s stated theme of “replacement.”
