Lanterns Season 2 is in early development while it awaits an official green light at HBO, co-creator Damon Lindelof has confirmed.
One of the creatives behind DC's popular Green Lantern show offered the second season update during a conversation with Collider. Although it may not be the firm commitment to more episodes that many were hoping to see after Lanterns aired its first season finale, it's at least a sign that some of the minds at DC Studios are already working to will them into existence behind the scenes.
With Season 1 officially over and (most) questions answered, the main thing most fans want to know is: Where is Lanterns Season 2? Lindelof said he does "not know anything" about how the DCU's John Stewart (Aaron Pierre) and Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler) may evolve in the future, but he did confirm that there are already "writers who are working on ideating on Season 2."
Of course, those who finished the HBO show's first season know that Chandler's Hal Jordan is well and truly dead by the time its final episode's credits roll. The topic of the DC superhero icon's death – and all of the controversy surrounding it – is something Lindelof also addressed as fans wait for Season 2 confirmation.
"I can only tell you that everybody in the Season 1 room," he said, "inclusive of the writers who are working on ideating on Season 2, felt like even though we knew that it was going to be emotionally devastating and/or disappointing and maybe even frustrating, that the worst possible schmuck-baity thing that we could do is show you a pilot where Hal Jordan was definitively dead, and then try to walk it back and say, 'Oh, he was a clone' or 'He's only mostly dead' in the Princess Bride vernacular."
