That's why a live action GL can never truly work unless they have a massive budget.Obviously "grounded" earth-based detective work is just code word for budget friendly
The elephant in the room about a live-action GL production has always been budget. Everything either has to be CGI or massive set pieces with a ton of costume work for every alien species.
How do you mitigate that? Keep them fukkers on earth and talkin to humans

Reddit. Obviously there's always the chance of it being bs but they seem legit.
An IP like Green Lantern is in a tough spot because it's not popular/proven enough mainstream-wise for studios to feel comfortable pouring in the money required to properly adapt it. The recent failures/box office bombs from super hero IPs probably has them even more hesitant.
As is, most casuals to the comics (who make up like 98% of movie goers, globally) probably only know John and Hal, with a vague understanding that Kilowog is the man-pig alien bro and Sinestro is the bad guy.
So i can sort of see the vision in that they want to win us over on John and Hal w/o breaking the bank, and then if the characters (and Gunn's Superman) prove lucrative, probably up the budget for a true space adventure.
I know that he's an extraterrestrial being, but the character of Sinestro always gave me Middle Eastern vibes.
