HBO is in development on a new TV series based on the iconic DC Comics graphic novel 'V for Vendetta,' with Pete Jackson attached to write and James Gunn and Peter Safran executive producing for DC Studios. The project, produced by Warner Bros. Television, adapts the dystopian story of anarchist V and Evey Hammond in a fascist Britain. This marks another live-action DC property for HBO, following successes like 'The Penguin' and the upcoming 'Lanterns.'
The upcoming Green Lantern television series Lanterns is drawing criticism for its choice to keep the story grounded on Earth. This decision contrasts with previous iterations of the franchise that embraced space adventures. An animated predecessor is highlighted as superior for its willingness to explore outer space.

The Fox series Gotham, which aired from 2014 to 2019, featured a strong ensemble portraying early versions of DC Comics characters in a Batman prequel setting. Since the show's conclusion, its actors have taken on roles in films, television, video games, and other media. Their careers highlight a mix of blockbuster appearances, voice work, and activist efforts.
Before Jason Momoa takes on the role of intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo in the upcoming Supergirl project, the character already made his live-action debut on television. Emmett J. Scanlan, known for his role in Peaky Blinders, portrayed Lobo in a 2019 episode of the SyFy series Krypton. This marks the character's first appearance in live action, predating Momoa's involvement.
