Ryan Reynolds denies fan speculation about Green Lantern cameo in Zack Snyder’s Justice League

February 23, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

In an in-depth piece on Zack Snyder’s Justice League over at Vanity Fair, it was reported that Snyder has reshot the ending of his DC blockbuster for the upcoming HBO Max release “with a hero cameo that will blow hard-core fans’ minds”.

Seemingly discounting the possibility of this referring to Martian Manhunter – who is already confirmed to appear, played by Man of Steel’s Harry Lennix – fans quickly began speculating as to the identity of this surprise hero.

A favourite among the names mentioned was Ryan Reynolds’ Hal Jordan from the 2011 Green Lantern movie, prompting Reynolds to respond to the speculation with the following tweet:

It’s not me. But what a cool pirate flag to cameo as Hal. Maybe it’s another GL? But for me, the suit stays in the closet. I mean, computer. https://t.co/QU4NRVadiz

So, if not Reynolds’ Green Lantern (nor Harry Lennix’s Martian Manhunter), then who do you think this mind-blowing cameo could be? Let us know your theories on our social channels @FlickeringMyth…

In ZACK SNYDER’S JUSTICE LEAGUE, determined to ensure Superman’s (Henry Cavill) ultimate sacrifice was not in vain, Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) aligns forces with Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) with plans to recruit a team of metahumans to protect the world from an approaching threat of catastrophic proportions. The task proves more difficult than Bruce imagined, as each of the recruits must face the demons of their own pasts to transcend that which has held them back, allowing them to come together, finally forming an unprecedented league of heroes. Now united, Batman (Affleck), Wonder Woman (Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), Cyborg (Ray Fisher), and The Flash (Ezra Miller) may be too late to save the planet from Steppenwolf, DeSaad, and Darkseid, and their dreadful intentions.

Zack Snyder’s Justice League is directed by Zack Snyder and features Henry Cavill as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Ray Fisher as Cyborg, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Connie Nielsen as Queen Hippolyta, Robin Wright as General Antiope, J.K. Simmons as Commissioner Gordon, Amber Heard as Mera, Joe Morton as Silas Stone, Willem Dafoe as Vulko, Ciaran Hinds as Steppenwolf, Joe Manganiello as Deathstroke, Harry Lennix as Martian Manhunter, Kiersey Clemons as Iris West, Zheng Kai as Ryan Choi, Peter Guinness as DeSaad, Ray Porter as Darkseid, and Jared Leto as The Joker.
