It’s been previously reported that an actor is already cast to play Booster Gold (first reported by r/DCULEAKS) and that they’re close to getting a showrunner (reported by DanielRPK). In addition, there was a listing on Production List stating the series will begin filming on July 8, 2024, which was quickly debunked by James Gunn commenting on a fan’s question about the rumor.

Booster Gold is one of comic’s really popular cult heroes. He is a fascinating guy. He’s a loser from the future who uses future technology to come back to present day and become a superhero so that people will love him. It is basically the superhero story of imposter syndrome on an HBO Max series.” This story is still developing…

My Adventures with Green Lantern was first announced in February of this year as a spin-off to Adult Swim’s My Adventures with Superman , an anime-influenced take on Superman. My Adventures with Green Lantern  will focus on the Green Lantern, Jessica Cruz who has her life upended when a power ring falls from the sky. This iteration of the character will be a high schooler who’s chosen to be the ring’s champion As reported by Knight Edge Media last week, a character description for Jessica states she will be 14-15 in the series who had a normal upbringing playing softball and hanging out with her friends Kyle and Nikki until everyone around her hits puberty and she faces bullying. The series picks up when Jessica begins high school and is described as chronically anxious, a trait that’s core to her comic counterpart. Sources tell Nexus Point News that Kyle and Nikki are confirmed to be Kyle Rayner and Nikki Jones, respectively. Other characters confirmed to appear are Alex DeWitt and Kilowog. Details and the direction of Kyle’s character are currently under wraps but he will serve as a love interest to Jessica. The series will be set in Coast City and the students will be attending Hal Jordan High School. The status of Hal Jordan in this universe is currently unknown. Similar to My Adventures with Superman ’s Sailor Moon-esque transformation, the influence will carry over to this series with Jessica sporting a Sailor Moon inspired costume. The Green Lanterns in this iteration are described as peace-keeping warrior monks rather than cops, similar to the Green Lantern who appeared in My Adventures with Superman . Nikki is described as an overly confident, goth high schooler who doesn’t care for the approval of others. Nikki is Jessica’s lifelong best friend and protective of her, sometimes overly protective. Nikki is likely an adaptation of Nicki Jones from the comics who becomes the new Jade as part of Lex Luthor’s Infinity Inc. Nicki Jones first appeared in 52  #29 in 2007 and was created by Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, Greg Rucka, Mark Waid, Keith Giffen, and Chris Batista. Alex DeWitt is described as the popular girl of the school. She’s a softball star and the daughter of politicians. Alex first appeared in Green Lantern  (1990) #48 in 1994 and was created by Ron Marz and Bill Willingham. She’s known in the comics as Kyle Rayner’s first love interest and the victim of the infamous “fridging” issue where she’s brutally murdered by Major Force. Kilowog, like the other Green Lanterns, is described as a warrior monk and the last surviving Green Lantern. Kilowog served with pride and an incident in the past involving him resulted in the collapse of the Green Lanterns. Kilowog serves as a mentor to Jessica. Kilowog first appeared in Green Lantern Corps  (1986) #201 and was created by Steve Englehart and Joe Staton. Kilowog is the last surviving member of his race and lost his planet during Crisis on Infinite Earths  and was initially created to be one of the lanterns who joins Hal and John on Earth when the Corps were no longer bound by sectors. Kilowog is best known for serving as the Green Lanterns’ drill instructor and Hal’s mentor. The release date for My Adventures With Green Lantern is not yet announced.
