A new fan-made image highlights Nathan Fillion in his new role as the most annoying Green Lantern ever in Superman: Legacy.

The world’s most annoying member of the Green Lantern Corps is coming to the big screen, played by none other than Nathan Fillion in DC’s upcoming Superman: Legacy, the film designed to reboot the DC Universe.

Fans are eager to see how James Gunn will adapt Guy Gardner in the film, particularly when it comes to capturing the character’s iconic look. We might have a long wait ahead before we get an official look at Fillion in the role, but thanks to a talented artist we now know just how amazing the casting decision might prove to be!

What Nathan Fillion could look like as Guy Gardner

Artist clements.ink shared their interpretation of Fillion in the famous green suit on Instagram in a piece of stunning concept art that sees Fillion rocking his iconic hairstyle as well.

Fillion’s casting as the obnoxious Green Lantern Guy Gardner is generating chatter among fans. Guy Gardner isn’t the first name that comes to mind when thinking about the Green Lantern, but his notoriety for selfishness, bad temper, and attitude give this version a unique twist. Will Fillion’s Gardner retain these traits, or are we in for a softer portrayal?

In a comment on the platform Threads, James Gunn jokingly teased that giving his old friend Nathan a bowl cut might have been his primary reason for casting him. This playful banter has fans wondering whether Gardner’s ugly hairdo will make its cinematic debut. At least Will Byers will be in… somewhat good company.

Fillion’s Gardner is part of a trio of deep-cut heroes confirmed for the movie. Isabela Merced will be taking on the role of Hawkgirl. Edi Gathegi will play the role of Mister Terrific, the genius inventor with floating T-sphere weapons. The newly revealed cast also includes David Corenswet as Superman and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.

Superman: Legacy is scheduled to hit theaters on July 11, 2025.
