The director gave a playful answer at first, teasing fans who have an issue with Kyle Chandler being cast as Hal Jordan in Lanterns. It was expected that James Gunn would back up the casting choice from the Lanterns showrunner, regardless of if he thought Kyle Chandler was the right pick for the role of Hal Jordan.
