Overview

  • At the Superman premiere, Fillion emphatically defended Guy Gardner’s bold bowl-cut haircut as essential to the character’s comic identity.
  • He revealed that the flight harnesses used for his on-screen flying scenes caused claustrophobia and left him with a fist-sized bruise on his kidney.
  • Fillion will appear as Guy Gardner in Peacemaker Season 2 on HBO this August.
  • He teased that HBO’s Lanterns series, slated for 2026, will include more F-bombs than he’s ever dropped in his career.
  • His transition from voicing Green Lantern characters in animation since 2011 to live-action roles fits James Gunn’s strategy for a unified, character-focused DCU.
