Nathan Filion’s Guy Gardner in the new Superman teaser

The teaser for Superman: Legacy not only gave fans a glimpse of the new Superman, but also showcased several other iconic DC heroes, with Nathan Fillion’s portrayal of Green Lantern Guy Gardner standing out. While Guy’s distinctive green beam from his lantern ring catches the eye, it’s his overall look that has sparked the biggest conversation.

In a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, Fillion makes a brief but memorable appearance as the Earth-based Green Lantern in the trailer. Sporting his iconic bowl-cut hairstyle, Fillion’s Guy uses his Green Lantern ring in a quick action shot, staying true to the comic book portrayal.

Netizens react to Filion’s Guy Gardner look

Reddit sparked discussions about various characters seen in the trailer aside from Superman and Guy Gardner securing a major role. One Redditor wrote, “At least I’m glad DC is putting some back on the Green Lantern.” Another user wrote: “He looks like a massive jerk. I love it.” A third user wrote: “Imo looks fire! Also from the little beam he made from his ring looks like we may finally get fire constructs on the big screen but we’ll see!”

However, one Reddit user apparently wasn’t a fan of the look, writing: “Hot take: Fillion doesn’t look that good with the bowl cut. I think they should have gone for more of the military cut he has now.” Meanwhile, another user wrote: “Holy cr** , they did it, they actually went with ‘The Bowl’ … this is going to be the JLI / Super Buddies era Guy isn’t it (and the mix of goofs and heroics ) from that run would fit Gunn’s style).
