Overview

• Dillahunt posted an Instagram story placing photos of himself, Ulrich Thomsen, and Paul Ben-Victor above images of Black Hand, Sinestro, and Atrocitus, which outlets interpreted as a casting clue.
• The post is being read as a signal that Paul Ben-Victor’s character Antaan corresponds to Atrocitus, suggesting multiple Lanterns adversaries could feature.
• DC Studios has not issued an official confirmation, and Dillahunt has previously shared playful teases that he later clarified.
• Ulrich Thomsen has been reported as Sinestro alongside leads Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre in a grounded, earth-set investigation.
• Lanterns is in post-production for an eight-episode run debuting on HBO and Max in early 2026, led by showrunner Chris Mundy with Damon Lindelof and Tom King among the creatives, and a Guy Gardner appearance by Nathan Fillion.
