Justice League Unlimitedmight have been one of my first introductions to John Stewart, he explained.
ThoughLanternscasting for both characters grabbed a lot of headlines (remember whenJosh Brolin turned down the Jordan role?
), Pierre told EW he wasnt really aware of the media frenzy.
Im a firm believer that whats meant for you wont miss you.
So, I gave my best and then set it free.
Hopefully, I serve the Green Lantern Corps.
Were just really excited for the people to see what we put together here.
