Grim first 5 minutes of 'Lanterns' released, drawing True Detective comparisons

HBO Max has dropped the opening minutes of DC Studios' upcoming series Lanterns, and it's a far cry from bright superheroics. Per JoBlo, the intense clip features Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre and establishes a moody, grounded tone.

The series is being pitched as a True Detective-like take on the Green Lantern mythology. The released footage suggests a slow-burn detective story set within the DC Universe.
