I think Aldis Hodge should be John Stewart

Great choice. This is my biggest gripe when it comes to who should be John Stewart: It is lazy and disrespectful for fans to try and pigeon hole Tyrese, Terrance Howard or Idris Elba to play GL. There are some great black actors that shine with what they're given. I could name a good seven actors that I'd rather see play GL than Tyrese, Howard or Elba.

Sick of the same 3 black actors being mentioned for every black role

Several vendors form Virginia’s Comic-Con that will be held next month received emails regarding an upcoming variant cover for Green Lantern/Star Trek The Spectrum Wars #1. Apparently a new cover is going to be released exclusive at that comic-con showcasing Chris Pine face as both Hal Jordan and Captain Kirk. The email stated not to post anything about this until after the San Diego Comic-Con announcement for him joining the DCCU. Of course we know that never came but it may be due to just timing. He didn’t get to sign onto the film in time for the DC Comics panel announcement. But with VA Comic-Coin coming next month could DC Comics officially announce Chris Pine as Hal Jordan? That would make that variant cover even more special.

I think Hodge is a great choice. Also Nate Parker looks the part for John Stewart.

:russ:at Nate Parker dude is corny as shyt. I rather Tyrese who actually has taste.
The problem you guys have is that yall want John Stewart to be the boring bald big black leader guy with no character:stopitslime: That image is not popular brehs it never was:why: Everytime we get a black man as a main, nikkas always make him look lame as fukk:beli: or make him look retarded:wtb:
People want the John Stewart from the cartoon since he had character and relationships... He had a life:yeshrug:
The John from the comic book is the boring one nobody gives fukk about, he has nothing going for him. Bland as fukk and too safe, he's also inconsistent cause DC hates him and shyts on him.
