Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre shed light on 'Lanterns' after stunning finale: 'I had to gently wipe away a tear'

"Lanterns" season 1 ended last night, and the season finale delivered shocking revelations. We learned who killed Hal Jordan (Kyle Chandler); we learned once and for all whether there's another Manhunter out there, and we finally got to see Aaron Pierre put on the Green Lantern's ring and say the magic (slightly amended) words that make John Stewart Earth's protector going forward.

  • Premiere date/time: All eight episodes out now
  • Channel: HBO and streaming on HBO Max

In short, the season finale answered our questions ... mostly. Luckily, I was invited to an HBO panel hosted by The Ringer's Mallory Rubin, featuring none other than Pierre and his co-star Chandler, and they were able to answer a few more questions, including their reactions to the end of season 1, finally seeing this show on screen and how they would use the ring if they had it for themselves for 24 hours. Read on for some of their more insightful comments.

Both Chandler and Pierre were surprisingly at peace with the ending of "Lanterns." That's not to say they were ready to move on; in fact, if I didn't know better, I'd have said they were still in character. Pierre largely took the lead in the press conference, with Chandler chiming in with some insights tinged with comic relief. But this show wrapped up for them nearly a year and a half ago.

That said, they still hadn't seen the finished product until the "Lanterns" season premiere eight weeks ago. That means that last night was the end of this chapter in the Green Lanterns' story for them, not just for us.
