As a dedicated fan of both comics and gritty crime thrillers, I can confidently say that Aaron Pierre is poised to become a powerhouse in the world of superhero cinema. After witnessing his performance in “Rebel Ridge,” it’s clear that he has the acting chops, the physicality, and the charisma to bring John Stewart, one of the most iconic Green Lanterns, to life on the silver screen.
The illumination from HBO’s DC series “Lanterns” is growing more intense due to whispers that Josh Brolin might play Hal Jordan, causing speculation about potential storyline turns. On the other hand, after Netflix’s “Rebel Ridge,” some X (previously known as Twitter) users think Aaron Pierre would be a great fit for the role of John Stewart, wielding the Green Lantern ring as the renowned Emerald Knight.
After the movie premiere, @SchwayJohn expressed that Aaron Pierre showcases an incredible action hero and rising star. When discussing the climactic fight scene where Pierre outmaneuvers a group of bungling police officers, they commented about him potentially possessing the Green Lantern power ring. User @LanternUpdates stated that Aaron Pierre delivers an exceptional acting performance in ‘Rebel Ridge’, suggesting he’d be perfect as DCU John Stewart. In reality, it’s not only his on-screen charisma that fits well with Stewart but also the qualities demonstrated in his “Rebel Ridge” character, which demonstrate his potential to wield a Green Lantern power ring.
Could Aaron Pierre overcome great fear as a Green Lantern
In the crime thriller “Rebel Ridge,” directed by Jeremy Saulnier, Pierre portrays a character who embodies the principles of John Stewart, the third human member enlisted in the Green Lantern Corps, as depicted in comic books and animated series. First introduced in 1971 and taking over from Guy Gardner (to be played by Nathan Fillion in “Superman”), Stewart is renowned as one of the most famous members of the Corps. HBO made an astute decision choosing Stewart to lead the Green Lanterns, but will he measure up against Brolin’s Jordan? Given his impressive performance with legendary actor Don Johnson, it seems that playing Jordan wouldn’t be a challenge for him.
Undeniably, there’s a vast universe of fans who love comic book movies, and it’s reasonable to assume that after “Rebel Ridge,” the two major studios known for producing such films are closely monitoring Aaron Pierre’s career. As Christopher Marc from The Playlist suggested, it wouldn’t be surprising if Marvel and DC Studios are already exploring roles for him. In fact, he could be a fantastic fit as John Stewart in ‘Lanterns,’ which would be an excellent move to set up a new film franchise. However, he could also potentially join the Marvel Cinematic Universe by playing characters like Brother Voodoo or Bishop. For now, we can only hope that DC Studios find him appealing enough to offer him a role.
